The multifunction of CLAVATA2 in plant development and immunity
The CLAVATA2 (CLV2) gene encodes a leucine-rich repeat (LRR) receptor-like protein (RLP), a class of cell surface receptors that lacks a cytoplasmic kinase domain.As such, CLV2 is capable of functioning in concert with additional receptor(s), possibly VGA receptor-like kinase(s), to activate cellular responses upon ligand perception.Accumulating da
MicroRNA-34a: Potent Tumor Suppressor, Cancer Stem Cell Inhibitor, and Potential Anticancer Therapeutic
Overwhelming evidence indicates that virtually all treatment-naive tumors contain a subpopulation JODHPUR/PADDOCK BOOTS of cancer cells that possess some stem cell traits and properties and are operationally defined as cancer cell stem cells (CSCs).CSCs manifest inherent heterogeneity in that they may exist in an epithelial and proliferative state
