A prospective comparison of a noninvasive cardiac output monitor versus esophageal Doppler monitor for goal-directed fluid therapy in colorectal surgery patients.
(Anesth Analg, 2014-05)
BACKGROUND: Goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) is associated with improved outcomes
after surgery. The esophageal Doppler monitor (EDM) is widely used, but has several
limitations. The NICOM, a completely noninvasive cardiac ...
Differential developmental trajectories of magnetic susceptibility in human brain gray and white matter over the lifespan.
(Hum Brain Mapp, 2014-06)
As indicated by several recent studies, magnetic susceptibility of the brain is influenced
mainly by myelin in the white matter and by iron deposits in the deep nuclei. Myelination
and iron deposition in the brain evolve ...
Interstitial engraftment of adipose-derived stem cells into an acellular dermal matrix results in improved inward angiogenesis and tissue incorporation.
(J Biomed Mater Res A, 2013-10)
Acellular dermal matrices (ADM) are commonly used in reconstructive procedures and
rely on host cell invasion to become incorporated into host tissues. We investigated
different approaches to adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) ...
Two genes on A/J chromosome 18 are associated with susceptibility to Staphylococcus aureus infection by combined microarray and QTL analyses.
(PLoS Pathog, 2010-09-02)
Although it has recently been shown that A/J mice are highly susceptible to Staphylococcus
aureus sepsis as compared to C57BL/6J, the specific genes responsible for this differential
phenotype are unknown. Using chromosome ...
MRP3: a molecular target for human glioblastoma multiforme immunotherapy.
(BMC Cancer, 2010-09-01)
BACKGROUND: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is refractory to conventional therapies.
To overcome the problem of heterogeneity, more brain tumor markers are required for
prognosis and targeted therapy. We have identified and ...
An aberrant SREBP-dependent lipogenic program promotes metastatic prostate cancer.
(Nature genetics, 2018-02)
Lipids, either endogenously synthesized or exogenous, have been linked to human cancer.
Here we found that PML is frequently co-deleted with PTEN in metastatic human prostate
cancer (CaP). We demonstrated that conditional ...
Preclinical and Coclinical Studies in Prostate Cancer.
(Cold Spring Harbor perspectives in medicine, 2018-04-02)
Men who develop metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) will invariably
succumb to their disease. Thus there remains a pressing need for preclinical testing
of new drugs and drug combinations for late-stage ...
Loss of epithelial oestrogen receptor α inhibits oestrogen-stimulated prostate proliferation and squamous metaplasia via in vivo tissue selective knockout models.
(The Journal of pathology, 2012-01)
Squamous metaplasia (SQM) is a specific phenotype in response to oestrogen in the
prostate and oestrogen receptor (ER) α is required to mediate this response. Previous
studies utilizing tissue recombination with seminal ...
Institutional review boards' use and understanding of certificates of confidentiality.
(PloS one, 2012-01)
Certificates of Confidentiality, issued by agencies of the U.S. government, are regarded
as an important tool for meeting ethical and legal obligations to safeguard research
participants' privacy and confidentiality. By ...
Intracoronary adenovirus-mediated delivery and overexpression of the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor in the heart : prospects for molecular ventricular assistance.
(Circulation, 2000-02-01)
BACKGROUND: Genetic modulation of ventricular function may offer a novel therapeutic
strategy for patients with congestive heart failure. Myocardial overexpression of
beta(2)-adrenergic receptors (beta(2)ARs) has been shown ...
