Yangtze University 3 articles published in JoVE Cancer Research Knockdown of FAM83A to Verify Its Role in Cervical Cancer Cell Growth and Cisplatin Sensitivity Sisi Zhang*1, Xuemei Lin*2, Li Xiao1, Ya Wang3 1Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Jingzhou Hospital, Yangtze University, 2Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Gong An County People's Hospital, 3Department of Ultrasound, Zhijiang People's Hospital Here, we show the procedures for FAM83A knockdown; the assays to detect its effects on proliferation, migration, and invasion of cervical cancer cells; and the sensitization of these cells to cisplatin. This study provides a promising target gene for cervical cancer and a reference for further drug research. Genetics Screening and Identification of RNA Silencing Suppressors from Secreted Effectors of Plant Pathogens Jinxia Shi1, Yijuan Jia1, Di Fang1, Shidan He1, Peng Zhang1,2, Yushuang Guo3, Yongli Qiao1 1Shanghai Key Laboratory of Plant Molecular Sciences, College of Life Sciences, Shanghai Normal University, 2College of Agriculture, Yangtze University, 3Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, China National Tobacco Corporation, Guizhou Institute of Tobacco Science Here, we present a modified screening method that can be extensively used to quickly screen RNA silencing suppressors in plant pathogens. Environment Shootward Movement of CFDA Tracer Loaded in the Bottom Sink Tissues of Arabidopsis Mengting Jiang*1, Zhuying Deng*1, Rosemary G. White2, Tianlin Jin1, Dacheng Liang1 1Hubei Collaborative Innovation Center for Grain Industry, School of Agriculture, Yangtze University, 2CSIRO Agriculture The goal of this protocol is to show how to load the CFDA into different sites of the bottom parts of Arabidopsis. We then present the resulting distribution pattern of CF in the shoots.
