Pathogenesis of growth failure and partial reversal with gene therapy in murine and canine Glycogen Storage Disease type Ia.
(Mol Genet Metab, 2013-06)
Glycogen Storage Disease type Ia (GSD-Ia) in humans frequently causes delayed bone
maturation, decrease in final adult height, and decreased growth velocity. This study
evaluates the pathogenesis of growth failure and the ...
The pallial basal ganglia pathway modulates the behaviorally driven gene expression of the motor pathway.
(Eur J Neurosci, 2007-04)
The discrete neural network for songbird vocal communication provides an effective
system to study neural mechanisms of learned motor behaviors in vertebrates. This
system consists of two pathways--a vocal motor pathway ...
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 ...
Comparative genomics reveals insights into avian genome evolution and adaptation.
(Science, 2014-12-12)
Birds are the most species-rich class of tetrapod vertebrates and have wide relevance
across many research fields. We explored bird macroevolution using full genomes from
48 avian species representing all major extant clades. ...
A selective inhibitor of eIF2alpha dephosphorylation protects cells from ER stress.
(Science (New York, N.Y.), 2005-02)
Most protein phosphatases have little intrinsic substrate specificity, making selective
pharmacological inhibition of specific dephosphorylation reactions a challenging problem.
In a screen for small molecules that protect ...
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 ...
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 ...
Gene expression signatures of radiation response are specific, durable and accurate in mice and humans.
(PLoS One, 2008-04-02)
BACKGROUND: Previous work has demonstrated the potential for peripheral blood (PB)
gene expression profiling for the detection of disease or environmental exposures.
METHODS AND FINDINGS: We have sought to determine the ...
Costimulation blockade alters germinal center responses and prevents antibody-mediated rejection.
(Am J Transplant, 2014-01)
De novo donor-specific antibody (DSA) after organ transplantation promotes antibody-mediated
rejection (AMR) and causes late graft loss. Previously, we demonstrated that depletion
using anti-CD3 immunotoxin combined with ...
