Gene expression alterations in salivary gland epithelia of Sjögren’s syndrome patients are associated with clinical and histopathological manifestations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a complex autoimmune disease associated with lymphocytic infiltration and secretory dysfunction of salivary and lacrimal glands. Although the etiology of SS remains unclear, evidence suggests ... -
Gene Expression Analysis in gla-Mutant Zebrafish Reveals Enhanced Ca2+ Signaling Similar to Fabry Disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked inborn metabolic disorder due to partial or complete lysosomal α-galactosidase A deficiency. FD is characterized by progressive renal insufficiency and cardio- and cerebrovascular involvement. ... -
Gene expression profiles of dicyemid life-cycle stages may explain how dispersing larvae locate new hosts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-13)Metazoans have evolved a great variety of life histories in response to environmental conditions. A unique example is encountered in dicyemid mesozoans. In addition to a highly simplified adult body comprising only ~ 30 ... -
Gene Methylation and Silencing of WIF1 Is a Frequent Genetic Abnormality in Mantle Cell Lymphoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We have previously shown that the Wnt canonical pathway (WCP) is constitutively active in most cases of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Here, we aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying this biochemical deregulation. We ... -
