This present study aimed to identfy the key gene regulatory networks of miR‐638 and evaluate the potental role of the miR‐638 and its targets as potental prognosis biomarkers for cisplatn‐resistance triple‐negatve breast cancer patents. The miR‐638 target was obtained from the miRecords database while the mRNA of chemoresistance biomarker candidate was obtained from the GSE18864 of GEO database, which is mRNA of cisplatn‐resistance TNBC patents. CCND1 and FZD7 are potental candidates for cisplatn chemoresistance biomarkers in patents with TNBC. Moreover, a Kaplan‐Meier survival plot showed that breast cancer patents with low mRNA levels of FZD7 had signifcantly worse overall survival than those in higher mRNA expression group. Taken together, miR‐638 plays a role in cisplatn resistance mechanism through a mechanism involving its target gene CCND1 and FZD7 . Overall, miR‐638, CCND1 , and FZD7 are candidates for cisplatn biomarker resistance in TNBC.","PeriodicalId":13452,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Biotechnology","volume":"24 1","pages":"65-73"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45926776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although it has been studied in major sugar-producing countries, research on the definement of SCMV from Indonesian isolates based on molecular study has been very limited. This study aimed to obtain a proper recombinant antigens emanating from coat protein of SCMV from Indonesian isolate in order to produce polyclonal antibodies that cann be used for immunodiagnosis assays in a subsequent study. A gene-encoding coat protein of SCMV (CP-SCMV) was amplified using RT-PCR and cloned into vector pJET1.2. The cDNA was inserted into 6X His-tag expression plasmid of pET28a(+) and over-expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) to produce a recombinant protein. The highest expression was found in 0.1M IPTG induction media for 5 h at 37oC. SDS-PAGE analysis clarified that the recombinant CP-SCMV remained as an insoluble fraction. Purifications was carried out by the affinity Ni-NTA resin, followed by electroelution to obtain a highly purified protein. To meet the quality requirements of a proper antigen, the highly purified protein was concentrated. A molecular weight of the rCP-SCMV (approximately 40 kDa) was clearly observed by 10% SDS-PAGE at the concentration of 16.184 mg/mL.

The aim of this study was to identify the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the GDF9 gene and their association with litter size in Garut sheep. For this purpose, a total of 60 ewes of Garut sheep were included in this study. Based on the sheep GDF9 reference sequences (Genbank Acc. No. AF078545.2), one pair of primers (5’-CTGCTGTTTAACCTGGATCGTG-3 5’-GGAGAGCCATACCGATGTCC-3 as forward and reverse, respectively) was used for PCR amplification. The results revealed that four SNPs (g.54C>T, g.60G>A, g.304G>A, and g.333G>A) were found in Garut sheep by direct sequencing. For SNP g.54C>T, the sheep exhibited the highest frequency of allele C and genotype CC. On the other hand, SNPs g.60G>A, g.304G>A, and g.333G>A showed a higher frequency of allele G than allele A, and the GG genotype was predominant in the population. SNP g.333G>A had a significant effect on litter size (p < 0.05), and ewes with the GG genotype had a higher litter size than those with the GA genotype. Genotype distributions for all identified SNPs were in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

Subjects were divided into four groups that contained six mice each: control/sham operation, single acute IRI, single chronic IRI, and repeated IRI. Our results showed that the single chronic and repeated IRI groups significantly increased the tubular injury score, decreased the hemoglobin level, and increased erythropoietin expression compared with the control. Lower hemoglobin levels in all of the groups compared with the control was associated with erythropoietin resistance. In single chronic and repeated kidney IRI, there were decreased creatinine levels compared with the control. The decreased creatinine levels from the single acute IRI group to the single chronic IRI group, suggesting a repair phase of IRI starting on day 7 occurred in the single chronic IRI group. A macrophage marker, CD68, and an inflammatory mediator marker, MCP-1, significantly increased in all IR groups, indicating inflammation occurred due to IRI.

Based on the results, the supernatant of the L. plantarum strains appeared to have a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against pathogens, which would be active at pH 2.0–12.0 and stable temperature. In addition, almost all of the L. plantarum strains contained plantaricin-encoding genes (e.g. plnA, plnF,plnJK, and plnW), which were grouped into one cluster as indicated by phylogenetic analysis.

GroEL is an essential gene commonly used for classification and species identification of many groups of bacteria, including Anaplasma spp. In this study, a molecular diagnosis of anaplasmosis based on the groEL gene sequence was conducted using PCR. In addition, the genetic diversity of Anaplasma platys in infected dogs was determined. Blood samples were collected from 51 dogs suspected of anaplasmosis from Prof. Dr. Soeparwi Animal Hospital, animal clinics, and pet shops in the Yogyakarta area, Indonesia, based on anamnesis, histories of tick infestations, and clinical symptom examinations. DNA extraction and PCR targeting the groEL gene were performed, followed by sequencing. Phylogenetic tree analysis and construction were carried out using the BLAST and MEGA programs. Positive PCR sample results (amplicon length of 624 bp) were found in 6 of 51 dogs.

Currently, IBR field case detection in Indonesia still uses the serological method (ELISA), which has the potential to give false positive results and cannot explain the virus subtype.
