Die tierische Zelle in Zellkultur
Die ersten erfolgreichen Versuche zur Züchtung tierischer Zellen außerhalb des Organismus reichen zurück in den Beginn unseres Jahrhunderts. 1907 gelang HARRI SON durch Explantation von Gewebsstücken aus Froschembryonen der Nachweis, daß in der Embryonalentwicklung die Neuriten als Fortsätze der Nervenzelle ohne Be teiligung anderer Zellen gebildet werden, und daß damit eine spezifische celluläre Funktion auch außerhalb des Gesamtorganismus zu beobachten ist [310,311].

Bioactive Components of Food that Influence Histone Modification in Pancreatic Cancer In addition to bioactive nutrients modulating histone modifications, studies have also shown that caloric restriction, another unexplored area of research on epigenetics, reduces the expression of inflammatory genes such as NF-κB, AP1, COX-2, and iNOS (119). NF-κB is known to be activated by histone aceylation. Activation of NF-κB occurs through p300 HAT acetylation of the p50 subunit of NF-κB. This increases NF-κB binding and transactivation.
