Basonuclin 2 has a function in the multiplication of embryonic craniofacial mesenchymal cells and is orthologous to disco proteins.

10 Aug 2009 Basonuclin 2 is a recently discovered zinc finger protein of unknown function. Its paralog, basonuclin 1, is associated with the ability of keratinocytes to multiply. The basonuclin zinc fingers are closely related to those of the Drosophila ... Read more...

Expression of TRPV4 in the stimulated rat oral mucous membrane--nociceptive mechanisms of lingual conical papillae.

30 Jul 2009 The study was supported by 2006-2007 Aid Program for Overseas Training of the Promotion and Mutual Aid Corporation for Private School of Japan and International Exchange Grant, Osaka Dental University. We studied the function of TRPV4 expression and ... Read more...

Sympathectomy suppresses tumor growth and alters gene-expression profiles in rat tongue cancer.

30 Jul 2009 Sympathetic nerves are known to affect carcinogenesis. Recently we found that sympathetic denervation decreases the size of rat tongue tumors. To identify genes involved in rat tongue carcinogenesis and to study the effect of sympathetic nerves on ... Read more...
