Subsarcolemmal cAMP signals monitored by cyclic nucleotide gated channels in hypertrophied cardiac myocytes by Abi-Gerges, Aniella

“…This channel is gated by cAMP and thus allow to follow cAMP dynamics by recording the associated cationic current (ICNG) with the whole cell patch clamp technique 24 h after infection. Cumulative concentrationresponse curve to the non-selective E-adrenergic agonist isoprenaline (Iso) indicated a 33% decrease of the maximal cAMP accumulation produced by Iso while the effect of the hydrosoluble forskolin analog, L-858051 at a saturating concentration (100 µM) was unchanged between the two groups. …”

Modulation of SLFN11 induces changes in DNA Damage response in breast cancer by Christophe Michel Raynaud (17449906)

“…Finally, as a definitive and specific way to modulate SLFN11 expression we implemented SLFN11 dCas9 (dead CRISPR associated protein 9) systems to specifically increase or decrease SLFN11 expression.</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">After confirming the previously reported correlation between methylation of SLFN11 promoter and its expression across multiple cell lines, we showed in-vitro that decitabine and IFN-γ could increase moderately the expression of SLFN11 in both BT-549 and T47D cell lines. …”

Interactions between riluzole and ABCG2/BCRP transporter by Milane, Aline

“…Assays on mdr1a (−/−) mice and BeWo cells showed a higher uptake of riluzole when pretreated with a BCRP inhibitor. After repeated doses of riluzole, BCRP activity was increased in CF1 mdr1a (−/−) mice, riluzole uptake was decrease and both BCRP expression and activity were increased in BeWo cells. …”
