The c-abl proto-oncogene, which encodes a cytoplasmic protein-tyrosine kinase, is expressed throughout murine gestation and ubiquitously in adult mouse tissues. However, its levels are highest in thymus, spleen, and testes. To examine the in vivo role of c-abl, the gene was disrupted in embryonic
OBJECTIVE
Patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (SS) are at greater risk of developing lymphoma. This study was undertaken to evaluate whether the Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (Flt-3L) might be associated with lymphoma in primary SS.
METHODS
Serum levels of Flt-3L were measured in 369
BACKGROUND
In China, there are currently no approved therapies for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) following progression with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-targeted agents. In the phase 3 RECORD-1 trial, the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor
The effect of dietary tyrosine and phenylalanine restriction on splenic natural killer (NK) cell activity was studied in tumor-free B6D2F1 and NIH nude mice and in B16 bladder-6 (BL6) melanoma-bearing B6D2F1 mice. This dietary restriction was found to suppress the naturally elevated NK-cell activity
BACKGROUND
Sorafenib is a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor tyrosine-kinase inhibitor currently used in several malignancies. While not a traditional cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agent, hematological toxicities have been reported with this drug but the incidence and risk have not been
The leukocyte-specific tyrosine phosphatase, CD45, severely impacts T cell development and activation by modulating TCR signaling. CD45-deficient (CD45KO) mice have reduced peripheral T cell numbers where CD8 T cells are underrepresented. In this article, we show that CD45KO mice are unable to
A boy with lifelong recurrent bacterial infection at cutaneous and mucosal sites was investigated. PMN oxidative burst to phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and zymosan was normal but was increased 20- to 50-fold upon C5a or formyl-met-leu-phe (fMLP) chemoattractant stimulation, accompanied by
The variant simian immunodeficiency virus termed SIVsmmPBj14 induces a rapidly fatal disease in pig-tailed macaques. The acute pathogenic effects of this virus appear to be associated with at least two in vitro characteristics: the ability to induce lymphocyte proliferation; and the ability to
Idiopathic CD4(+) lymphocytopenia (ICL) is defined by a stable loss of CD4(+) T cells in the absence of any known cause of immune deficiency. This syndrome is still of undetermined origin. It affects adult patients, some of them displaying opportunistic infections similar to HIV-infected subjects.
BACKGROUND
Entospletinib (GS-9973) is an oral, selective inhibitor of spleen tyrosine kinase. Entospletinib monotherapy was evaluated in a multicenter, phase II study of subjects with relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancy.
METHODS
The study included 43 patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse
Tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins is a critical early event in the T-cell activation process induced by the antigenic peptide or monoclonal antibodies specific for the CD3 T-cell receptor (TCR) complex. Phosphoproteins are currently detected by Western blotting experiments or, recently,
Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) signaling is involved in innate immune responses and regulates the production of proinflammatory cytokines that can contribute to COVID-19 immunopathology. Clinical trials with BTK inhibitors in COVID-19 treatment have been proposed, and previous studies have attempted
OBJECTIVE
Triple negative breast cancers (TNBC) frequently have high epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression and are sensitive to DNA-damaging agents. Improved therapies are needed for this aggressive malignancy.
METHODS
We performed a phase I trial of bendamustine and erlotinib, an EGFR
Complete tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) deficiency has been previously described in patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases. The patients were infected with various pathogens, including mycobacteria and/or viruses, and one of the patients developed hyper-IgE syndrome. A detailed immunological
