August 7th, 2006
Gastric cancer (GC) apoptosis could be linked to the expression of programmed cell death 5 gene (PDCD5). "The PDCD5 is believed to participate in regulation of apoptosis. Although PDCD5 is reducibly expressed in various human tumors, it is not clear which expression level of PDCD5 is in GC," researchers in the People's Republic of China reported. "In this study, we have systematically employed the approaches of RT-PCR, Real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry (IHC), immunofluorescence staining (IFS) and Western blot to determine the PDCD5 expression in GC cells and primary tumors, at mRNA and protein level, respectively," explained Y.H. Yang and...
