Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) arise from the intestinal pacemaker cells of Cajal. Wild-type gastrointestinal stromal tumors (WT-GIST) are a unique and uncommon subtype of GISTs that lack activating mutations in the tyrosine kinase c-KIT or platelet derived growth factor receptor alpha
Clinical therapies for cancer have evolved from toxic, nontargeted agents to manageable, highly targeted therapies. Protein tyrosine kinases are a family of signaling molecules implicated in nearly every cancer type and are the foundation for the development of modern targeted agents. Recent genomic
O-phospho-L-tyrosine (P-Tyr) has been reported previously to inhibit growth of several cancer cell lines at mM concentrations. In the present study, we investigated the effect of this compound on tumor cells and normal cells in combination with radiation exposure. It could be demonstrated for the
In the spring of 2007, seven raccoon dogs and a weasel were captured near the city of Tanabe in Wakayama prefecture, Japan. The causative agent of the animals' death 1-2 days after capture was identified as canine distemper virus (CDV) by virus isolation, immunostaining with an anti-CDV polyclonal
The objective of the study was to investigate the role of tyrosine phosphorylation in the regulation of KCNQ1/KCNE1 channels. Large whole-cell time- and voltage-dependent K(+) currents were present in human embryonic kidney 293 cells cotransfected with human KCNQ1 and KCNE1 but not in control
Site-specific recombinases of the Integrase family utilize a common chemical mechanism to break DNA strands during recombination. A conserved Arg-His-Arg triad activates the scissile phosphodiester bond, and an active-site tyrosine provides the nucleophile to effect DNA cleavage. Is the tyrosine
We used whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing to identify clinically actionable genomic alterations in young adults with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Molecular characterization of 17 patients with PDAC enrolled in a precision oncology program revealed gene fusions amenable to
Protein tyrosine phosphorylation is associated with sperm capacitation and the acrosome reaction in several mammalian species. Changes in phosphorylation of a 95-kDa protein in human, mouse, and domestic cat spermatozoa are known to be influenced by capacitation and exposure to zona pellucida (ZP)
Mutationally activated RAS proteins are critical oncogenic drivers in nearly 30% of all human cancers. As with mutant RAS, the role of wild type RAS proteins in oncogenesis, tumour maintenance and metastasis is context-dependent. Complexity is introduced by the existence of multiple RAS genes (HRAS,
BACKGROUND
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a primary immunodeficiency characterized by failure of B-cell differentiation and hypogammaglobulinemia. In addition to being susceptible to bacterial infections, patients with XLA are also susceptible to enteroviruses. Systemic enterocytopathogenic
Two qualitative and one quantitative HPLC methods were evaluated for the detection of biogenic amine producers among wild dairy lactococcal and leuconostoc strains. High tyramine producers ranging from 370 to 807 mg l-1 were detected by qualitative methods and confirmed by HPLC analysis. Tyramine
Temperature-sensitive mutants of BCR/ABL tyrosine kinase have been extensively used to study the mechanisms of cell transformation and signal transduction. However, little is known about the effect of temperature on the activity of wild-type BCR/ABL gene product. In this study, we demonstrate that
Vaccine strains of measles virus (MV) use CD46 as receptor and downregulate CD46 from the surface of infected cells. MVs isolated and passaged on B-lymphoid cells (wild-type MVs) seem to use another receptor and do not downregulate CD46. In the present study, we found that isolation of MV on human
Internal tandem duplication (ITD) in the juxtamembrane portion of Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), a type III receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), is the most common molecular defect associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The high prevalence of this activating mutation makes it a potential
