Example sentences for: mesothelin

How can you use “mesothelin” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Conversely, mesothelin appears to be up-regulated specifically by Wnt-1 and not Wnt-5a since mesothelin was not induced by co-culturing with Wnt-5a secreting cells or by activation of the chimeric Rfz-2/β 2 AR receptor (Figure 1, panels A and B).

  • One gene, mesothelin, exhibited a 3-fold induction in C57mg cells treated with the Wnt-1 but not the Wnt-5a secreting 293T cells (Figure 1, panel A).

  • In order to examine the mechanism by which Wnt-1 or Wnt-5a regulates mesothelin or SL-1, respectively, C57mg cells were treated with either LiCl or phorbol myristic acetate (PMA).

  • LiCl has previously been shown to mimic activation of Wnt-1 signaling by stabilizing beta-catenin through its inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), a kinase that phosphorylates beta-catenin and promotes its degradation via the ubiquitin proteasome pathway [ 39 ] . C57mg cells treated with LiCl exhibited elevated levels of mesothelin but not SL-1 (Figure 2, left panel).

  • Whether mesothelin and SL-1 are direct targets of Wnt-1 and Wnt-5a, respectively, and whether alterations in their expression are responsible for the observed phenotypic changes in Wnt-5a/Rfz-2/C57mg cells, has yet to be determined.
