Epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) is considered to be a crucial stage of renal fibrosis. Previous studies have indicated that paired box 2 (PAX2) affects renal fibrosis, likely by regulating EMT. Therefore, we examined whether PAX2 directly induces normal renal tubular EMT in vitro. Recomb

Myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) protein has been recognized as a key regulatory molecule controlling mucin secretion by airway epithelial cells in vitro and in vivo. We recently showed that two intracellular chaperones, heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and cysteine string protein

We introduced eukaryotic expression plasmid pEGFP-N1 encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP) genes into cells with different biological features through electroporation. The effects of conditions, including voltage, capacitor flow, pulse cycle, DNA dosage and buffer, on transfection efficiency were
