Research from University of Copenhagen yields new findings on gene therapy
December 18th, 2008
According to recent research from Herlev, Denmark, "During a study of gene expression of foxp3 in blood mononuclear cells we observed a DNA product of an unknown RNA fragment. The area of this peak correlated with CD14 mRNA in a small group of subjects." "The sequence was localized to chromosome 1. We tested the hypothesis that gene expression of the poly A(-) transcript (designated Heg) in mononuclear cells was correlated with CD14 mRNA in normal subjects and with CD14 mRNA and TSH receptor autoantibodies in patients with acute and untreated Graves' disease. mRNA was expressed in amol/mu g DNA. The main study groups were: (i) normal subjects; (ii) patients with early...
