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...

Chronic Fatigue Mechanisms in Autoimmune Diseases: Lessons from Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Systemic Sclerosis
DownloadFall 2023
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease affecting the body's connective tissues, resulting in progressive fibrosis and vasculopathy. In some cases, individuals with SSc may also develop primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), another autoimmune disease characterized by damage to their...

Domino Azide-Metallocarbene Coupling and Nucleophilic Trapping: Synthetic Applications and Mechanistic Studies.
DownloadSpring 2016
Metallocarbenes are a class of reactive intermediates used in many strategic and complementary carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond forming reactions. The Stevens [1,2]-rearrangement of ammonium ylides is an example of a transformation typically involving metallocarbenes. The replacement of...
