Anti-Cancer Mechanism of Trastuzumab via Blocking Nuclear HER2 Function and Epigenetic Mechanism of Resistance
DownloadSpring 2020
HER2 receptor tyrosine kinase (encoded by ERBB2 gene) is overexpressed in approximately 25% of all breast cancer tumors (known as HER2-positive breast cancers). Overexpression of HER2 causes overactivation of downstream receptor tyrosine kinase pathways including PI3K/Akt and MAPK pathways and is...

COUP-TF1 antagonizes Nkx25-mediated activation of the calreticulin gene during cardiac development
Download2001-01-01
Guo, Lei, Lynch, Jeffrey, Nakamur, Kimitoshi, Fliegel, Larry, Kasahara, Hideko, Izumo, Seigo, Komuro, Issei, Agellon, Luis B., Michalak, Marek
Calreticulin, a Ca2+ binding chaperone of the endoplasmic reticulum, is also highly expressed in the embryonic heart, and knockout of the calreticulin gene is lethal during embryogenesis because of impaired cardiac development. The protein is down-regulated after birth, and elevated expression of...

Decongestive Progressive Resistance Exercise with Advanced Compression for Breast Cancer Related Lymphedema Management (DREAM): A Pilot Randomized Control Trial
DownloadFall 2018
Introduction: More than one in five women who survive breast cancer will eventually develop lymphedema. Recent studies in breast cancer lymphedema management have demonstrated that resistance exercise can improve the survivors’ quality of life without exacerbating their lymphedema. However,...

Distinct Roles of Class 1 PI3K Isoforms in the Regulation of Beta Cell Exocytosis and Insulin Secretion
DownloadFall 2014
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by peripheral insulin resistance and an insufficiency of insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta cell. The incidence of T2D is rising worldwide at an alarming rate. An increase in population growth, increased prevalence of obesity, and an aging population...

Epidermal Growth Factor-like domain 7 (EGFL7) is a secreted angiogenic factor that is almost exclusively expressed by endothelial cells. High EGFL7 expression occurs during physiological angiogenesis, under pathological conditions, and in solid tumor angiogenesis. Evidence suggests that EGFL7...
