  • Among the adhesion molecules up-regulated in IBD, MAdCAM-1, the mucosal cell adhesion molecule, is thought to be preeminent in the development of chronic gut inflammation.

  • Examples include RPs L7a, L37 and S14 in prostate tumors and cell lines [ 20 ] ; RPs L5, L7A, L18, S3, S6, S8, S12, S13, S28, P0 and P1 in colorectal cancers and cell lines [ 21 22 23 24 25 26 ] ; L5 in astrocytomas [ 27 ] ; L18a in squamous cell carcinoma [ 28 ] ; L19 in breast tumors that over-express erbB-2 [ 29 ] ; RPs S3A, S4, and S17 in lymphoid malignancies [ 30 ] ; L38, S4, P0, and P1 in rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines [ 31 ] ; and P0, P1, P2, L5, L9, L35, L39, S3A, S10, and S17 in liver tumors [ 32 ] . In addition, as noted above, a recent SAGE study identified targets of N-myc in a human neuroblastoma cell line [ 18 ] .

  • Because GluR1 is a known substrate of CaMKII in vitro and in vivo [ 34, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40] and because CaMKII expression/activity is up-regulated in the retinae of the rdta mice [ 34], GluR1 phosphorylation might also be increased in the rodless retina.

  • For example, genes for human autoantigen and human carboxyl ester lipase-like protein would be considered up-regulated in the microarray (according to PM match hybridization) if the MM hybridization values were ignored in the fold change calculation.
