The sodium iodide symporter (NIS) mediates iodide uptake into thyrocytes and is the molecular basis of thyroid radioiodine therapy. We previously have shown that NIS gene transfer into the F98 rat… (More)
A gene for human proliferating cell nucleolar protein p120 has been isolated from a human genomic library using p120 cDNA as a probe. The gene spanned 12 kilobase pairs and was composed of 15 exons… (More)
The 120 kDa proliferating-cell nucleolar antigen described by Freeman et al. (Cancer Res. 48:1244; 1988) is the most cancer specific of the proliferation-associated nucleolar proteins identified thus… (More)
To study the effects of flow on in situ endothelial intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) signaling, rat aortic rings were loaded with fura 2, mounted on a tissue flow chamber, and… (More)
The Ku protein is a DNA-binding nuclear protein complex composed of 86 kDa and 70 kDa subunits. Recently, in vitro studies suggested a role of the Ku protein in the activation of gene transcription.… (More)
