Infection with a recombinant parvovirus vector carrying the luciferase gene under control of parvovirus promoter P38 led to higher transgene activities in hepatoma cells than in the hepatocytes.
In summary, these findings indicate that PPV could induce SLCs apoptosis and a decrease of progesterone production in vivo and in vitro via p38 MAPK signaling and p53-dependent mitochondrial pathway, which provides the potential clinical therapy methods for PPV infection.
We report the use of a HeLa whole cell extract (WCE) runoff transcription system for the study of cis- and trans-acting elements, participating in the regulation of transcription initiation from the P38 promoter of the parvovirus minute virus of mice (MVM).
