MBD2 protein

01/01/2007 - "The eukaryotic vector of pcDNA3.1(+)/mBD2 was successfully constructed and transfected into SiHa cells, which established a solid foundation for further study on the biological characteristics and anti-tumor mechanisms of the mBD2 protein."
10/01/2006 - "The MBD2 protein is dispensable for animal viability, but it is implicated in the genesis of colon tumors. "
01/01/2023 - "Normal/tumor tissue pairs were analyzed for methylation of three CG-rich regions both by capture of methylated DNA by MBD2 protein and by methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSPCR). "
01/01/2014 - "In cancer cells, methylation-dependent gene silencing is at least partly mediated by the "Methyl-CpG-Binding Domain protein 2" (MBD2 protein), via the recruitment of chromatin remodeling complexes. "
03/01/2002 - "The results of these experiments demonstrated that (1) the activity of DNMTs was twofold to threefold higher in cancer cell lines and cancer tissues, as compared with a benign prostate epithelium cell line (BPH-1) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) tissues; (2) MBD2 activity was lacking in prostate cancer cell lines but present in BPH-1 cells; (3) immunohistochemical analyses exhibited higher expression of DNMT1 in all prostate cancer cell lines and cancer tissues, as compared with BPH-1 cell lines and BPH tissues; (4) MBD2 protein expression was significantly higher in BPH-1 cells and lacking in prostate cancer cell lines and, in BPH tissues, MBD2 protein expression was poorly observed, as compared with no expression in prostate cancer tissues; and (5) mRNA expression for DNMT1 was upregulated in prostate cancer, as compared with BPH-1, and mRNA expression for MBD2 was found to be significantly expressed in all cases. "

01/01/2018 - "MBD2 protein expression was reduced in the airway epithelium of COPD. "
01/01/2018 - "MBD2 protein expression in lung tissues of patients with COPD and cigarette smoke (CS)-exposed mice were evaluated by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. "

03/01/2002 - "The results of these experiments demonstrated that (1) the activity of DNMTs was twofold to threefold higher in cancer cell lines and cancer tissues, as compared with a benign prostate epithelium cell line (BPH-1) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) tissues; (2) MBD2 activity was lacking in prostate cancer cell lines but present in BPH-1 cells; (3) immunohistochemical analyses exhibited higher expression of DNMT1 in all prostate cancer cell lines and cancer tissues, as compared with BPH-1 cell lines and BPH tissues; (4) MBD2 protein expression was significantly higher in BPH-1 cells and lacking in prostate cancer cell lines and, in BPH tissues, MBD2 protein expression was poorly observed, as compared with no expression in prostate cancer tissues; and (5) mRNA expression for DNMT1 was upregulated in prostate cancer, as compared with BPH-1, and mRNA expression for MBD2 was found to be significantly expressed in all cases.

"

01/01/2008 - "The MBD2 protein was stably knocked down by RNA interference in RKO, a colon cancer cell line in which both p14(ARF) and p16(INK4A) are silenced by methylation. "
