CDC2-like (CLK) protein kinase inhibition as a novel targeted therapeutic strategy in prostate cancer (2021)
Journal Article

Dysregulation of alternative splicing is a feature of cancer, both in aetiology and progression. It occurs because of mutations in splice sites or sites that regulate splicing, or because of the altered expression and activity of splice factors and o...

Targeting the ERG oncogene with splice-switching oligonucleotides as a novel therapeutic strategy in prostate cancer (2020)
Journal Article

Background: The ERG oncogene, a member of the ETS family of transcription factor encoding genes, is a genetic driver of prostate cancer. It is activated through a fusion with the androgen-responsive TMPRSS2 promoter in 50% of cases. There is therefor...

Abscisic acid induced a negative geotropic response in dark-incubated Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (2019)
Journal Article

© 2019, The Author(s). The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays a role in stresses that alter plant water status and may also regulate root gravitropism and hydrotropism. ABA also exists in the aquatic algal progenitors of land plants, but other th... Read More about Abscisic acid induced a negative geotropic response in dark-incubated Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

Suppression of the in vitro growth and development of Microdochium nivale by phosphite (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 British Society for Plant Pathology The ascomycete fungus Microdochium nivale is a major pathogen of many species of the gramineae. Control measures rely heavily on chemical fungicides, making alternative means of disease reduction desirable....

Autoregulation of the human splice factor kinase CLK1 through exon skipping and intron retention (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. Alternative splicing is a key process required for the regulation of gene expression in normal development and physiology. It is regulated by splice factors whose activities are in turn regulated by splice factor kinases and phos...

Hypoxia leads to significant changes in alternative splicing and elevated expression of CLK splice factor kinases in PC3 prostate cancer cells (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 The Author(s). Background: Mounting evidence suggests that one of the ways that cells adapt to hypoxia is through alternative splicing. The aim of this study was firstly to examine the effect of hypoxia on the alternative splicing of cancer as...

Journal Article

© 2017, Spandidos Publications. All rights reserved. The oncogene ETS-related gene (ERG) encodes a transcription factor with roles in the regulation of haematopoiesis, angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, inflammation, migration and invasion. The ERG oncoge... Read More about The oncogenic transcription factor ERG represses the transcription of the tumour suppressor gene PTEN in prostate cancer cells.

Residual ground-water levels of the neonicotinoid thiacloprid perturb chemosensing of Caenorhabditis elegans (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017, The Author(s). This study investigated the neurological effects of residual ground-water levels of thiaclopridon the non-target organism Caenorhabditis elegans. Nematodes treated with thiacloprid showed a dose-dependent and significantly incr...

The evolutionarily conserved multifunctional glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins play key roles in development and stress adaptation (2015)
Journal Article

© 2014 Scandinavian Plant Physiology Society. The class IV glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins are a distinct subgroup within the heterogenous superfamily of glycine-rich proteins (GRPs). They are distinguished by the presence of an RNA-binding domain...

Hydrogen sulfide: Environmental factor or signalling molecule? (2013)
Journal Article

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has traditionally been thought of as a phytotoxin, having deleterious effects on the plant growth and survival. It is now recognized that plants have enzymes which generate H2S, cysteine desulfhydrase, and remove it, O-acetylse... Read More about Hydrogen sulfide: Environmental factor or signalling molecule?.

The relationship of proline content and metabolism on the productivity of maize plants (2011)
Journal Article

The free proline content in maize ear-leaves, silk and pollen were analyzed in field grown plants which had matured to the pollination stage.
