A novel strategy of amperometric assay for drug-dsDNA interactions was developed based on an inhibitory effect of antimararial drug (quinacrine) on an electrocatalytic activity of DNA-Cu(II) complex. In this method, a DNA-Cu(II) complex immobilized DNA/polyallylamine(PAA) polyion complex membrane was used

An earlier study has shown that RNAi knock-down of a single organic anion transporter (OAT) gene in the principal cells of Drosophila Malpighian tubules is associated with reductions in the expression of multiple, functionally related genes. In this study, we

We previously reported that quinacrine (QC) has anticancer activity against breast cancer cells. Here, we examine the mechanism of action of QC and its ability to inhibit Wnt-TCF signaling in two independent breast cancer cell lines. QC altered Wnt-TCF signaling

Astrocytes might function as brain interoceptors capable of detecting different (chemo)sensory modalities and transmitting sensory information to the relevant neural networks controlling vital functions. For example, astrocytes that reside near the ventral surface of the brainstem (central respiratory chemosensitive area)
