Disease relevance of SFXN1

  • PATIENTS AND METHODS: p53, p21, and pRb expression was examined immunohistochemically on archival radical cystectomy samples from 164 patients with invasive or high-grade recurrent superficial transitional cell carcinoma (TCC; lymph node-negative, 117 patients; lymph node-positive, 47 patients) [1].
  • In this study, we evaluated whether the anti-VEGFR monoclonal antibody (Mab) DC101 in combination with paclitaxel inhibited tumorigenesis, angiogenesis, and metastasis of human TCC growing within the bladder of athymic nude mice [2].
  • We have determined the solution structure of a TCC-loop hairpin in the cruciform promoter for the bacteriophage N4 virion RNA polymerase (N4 vRNAP) [3].
  • In the present study, we compared deletions in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) cell lines to those in T-cell acute lymphatic leukemia (T-ALL), glioma, and bladder carcinoma (TCC) cell lines [4].
  • The surface proteins of seven human cell lines (three bladder carcinomas (TCC), two normal urothelial lines, one colon carcinoma, and one malignant melanoma) were labelled with 125I by the glucose oxidase-lactoperoxidase technique [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on SFXN1

  • Reaction time (RT) for TAC and TCC trials was equal in the control group [6].
  • In nondemented amnesics, disorientation mostly reflects a failure to select memories that pertain to ongoing reality (increased temporal context confusion; TCC), a failure strongly associated with orbitofrontal damage [7].
  • However, although it correlated moderately well with general measures of dementia severity, verbal episodic memory and executive functioning, there was no significant correlation with TCC [7].
  • MATERIALS AND METHODS: 43 patients (28 male, 15 female; mean age 65.5 years, range 21-82) with T1G3 TCC (transitional cell carcinoma) bladder tumour underwent transurethral resection and subsequent intravesical BCG according to Morales protocol, in the period 1993-1998 at our institution [8].
 

High impact information on SFXN1

  • The alpha I/50a defect was associated in different individuals with two separate single base changes in exon 6: CTG to CCG (leucine to proline) encoding residue 254, and TCC to CCC (serine to proline) encoding residue 255 [9].
  • The calcium ionophore, A23187, resulted in a significant stimulation only at 1 mumol/L (basal 0.28% +/- 0.7% TCC vs. 2.2% +/- 0.5% total cell content, P less than 0.05) [10].
  • The phorbol ester, phorbol 12 myristate 13-acetate, caused a concentration-dependent increase in immunoreactive somatostatin secretion with a 1-mumol/L concentration resulting in a 40-fold stimulation (basal 0.28% +/- 0.7% total cell content vs. 13.8% +/- 2.2% TCC, P less than 0.005) [10].
  • V (GTC) to A (GCC) at codon 138 in exon 4, P (CCC) to S (TCC) at codon 151 in exon 5, and P (CCC) to L (CTC) at codon 151 in exon 5 [11].
  • It is a small wonder that 10 of the 16 leucine residues were encoded by CTG, whereas none was encoded by CTA, and that 17 of the 23 serine residues were encoded either by TCT or by TCC, whereas only 1 was encoded by TCG [12].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of SFXN1

 

Biological context of SFXN1

  • A point mutation (C to T transition at nucleotide position 19,297) that results in coding for serine (TCC) in place of proline (CCC) at amino acid position 343 was found [18].
  • Therefore, loss of chromosome 9 may be one of the primary genetic events in TCC oncogenesis, with secondary events, such as tetraploidization, correlated to tumor progression [19].
  • Supportive evidence for the relevance of this sequence was obtained from gel mobility shift assays and by transfection of TCC mutation constructs [20].
  • A single missense mutation, Ser53 (TCC) to Phe53 (TTC was identified in exon II of the proband's alpha 1AT gene [21].
  • LOH analysis suggests that multiple tumor suppressor genes play a role in the development of human TCC [22].
 

Anatomical context of SFXN1

  • To examine these possibilities, the CwBL18 and Cw5 genes from the TCC (HLA-A1, -A2, -B52, -B18, -Cw-, -Cw-) and QBL (HLA-A26, -B18, -Cw5) EBV-transformed B lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCL) were cloned, sequenced, and transferred into HLA-A, -B, -C null LCL mutant .221 cells [23].
  • The TERE1 transcript (1.5 and 3.5 kb) is present in most normal human tissues including urothelium, but was reduced or absent in the majority of muscle invasive TCC tumors (22 out of 29 cases) [24].
  • We then screened for PTCH mutations in 'hot spot' exons 6, 8, 13 and 16 by PCR/SSCP analysis of genomic DNAs from 54 TCC tumor samples and control autologous peripheral blood lymphocytes [22].
  • Unstimulated CD4+ TCC from patients with AIDS showed enhanced helper function for IgG synthesis in vitro in both autologous and normal allogeneic B cells in comparison to clonable CD4+ T cells of normal donors [25].
  • BACKGROUND: Transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder (TCC) is the second most common malignancy of the urinary tract [26].
 

Associations of SFXN1 with chemical compounds

  • Furthermore, three copies of the 12-bp synthetic alpha2(I) collagen promoter fragment containing the "TCC" motif conferred OSM inducibility to the otherwise unresponsive thymidine kinase promoter [27].
  • MAPK-dependent promoter activities and bromodeoxyuridine incorporation decreased in UEC upon withdrawal of growth factors, but less so in TCC lines, in which serum diminution increased apoptosis [28].
  • Of the three subpopulations in the patient, distinguished by a tyrosine (TAC), aspartic acid (GAC), or serine (TCC) at the 215 position of RT, the relative fitness of the GAC variant was calculated to be 10 to 25% higher than the initial TAC variant, and the relative fitness of the TCC variant was 1% higher than that of the GAC variant [29].
  • TCL and TCC generated with Api g 1 cross-reacted with the birch pollen allergen and, although initially stimulated with the food allergen, cellular responses to Bet v 1 were stronger than to Api g 1 [30].
  • The Bb levels were significantly correlated with C3 activation products (C3bc; r= .72, P=.002), terminal SC5b-9 complement complex (TCC; r=.89, P<.001), and plasma lipopolysaccharides (LPS; r=.69, P= .01) [31].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of SFXN1

  • Sequence analysis following amplification of each exon and its flanking regions showed a single T to C transition in exon 14, which changed a Ser572 codon (TCC) to Pro572 codon (CCC) [32].
  • RESULTS: The distribution of alleles of the TCC repeat was similar between diabetic and control groups [33].
  • Only one TCC (6%) demonstrated nuclear accumulation of p53 protein by immunohistochemistry [34].
  • For seven of the TCC target cell cultures (two long-term and five short-term) autologous lymphocytes were also available for testing [35].
  • However, the present data suggest improved TCC survival in patients with an INR> 1.00 [13].
