In vitro studies on T cell proliferation and Lymphokine factor production in the amphibian, Xenopus [PDF]

, 1990
The major aim of this Thesis has been to procure and begin to characterise T cell-derived cytokines in the clawed toad, Xenopus. Recent reports have suggested that Xenopus lymphocytes, stimulated in vitro with T cell mitogens, will generate factors that ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Disulfiram treatment suppresses antibody-producing reactions by inhibiting macrophage activation and B cell pyrimidine metabolism

Communications Biology
Antibody responses, involving B cells, CD4 + T cells, and macrophages, are implicated in autoimmune diseases and organ transplant rejection. We have previously shown that inhibiting FROUNT with disulfiram (DSF) suppresses macrophage activation and ...

An anti-EGFR × cotinine bispecific antibody complexed with cotinine-conjugated duocarmycin inhibits growth of EGFR-positive cancer cells with KRAS mutations

Experimental and Molecular Medicine, 2018
Cancer: Improving targeted therapy A new method for producing antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), pairing anti-cancer drugs with antibodies that deliver them specifically to cancer cells, may help to develop therapies for hard-to-treat cancers.

Dual PI3K/AKT and CDK4/6 inhibition reveals selective sensitivity in an SHH medulloblastoma stem cell model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Targeted therapy was evaluated in SHH medulloblastoma using neuroepithelial stem cell (NES) and tumor‐derived NES‐like (tNES) models in 2D monolayers and 3D spheroids. PI3K, AKT, and CDK4/6 inhibitors had minimal effects in NES but markedly reduced viability and growth and induced apoptosis in tNES cells, revealing distinct therapeutic vulnerabilities.

Development of a stable eukaryotic strain producing fully human monoclonal antibody on the basis of the human antibody against ectromelia virus

Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2018
Fully­human antibodies have a great therapeutic importance; however, the development of stable strains providing a high level of production of full­size antibodies is a challenging task, as antibody molecules contain two types of polypeptide chains.

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability.

Quantitative characteristics of calcitonin-producing cells in the thyroid and lungs of uremic rats.

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2009
Uremia leads to a number of metabolic and hormonal disorders induced by renal failure with definite biological and clinical sequels. For this reason and the absence of reports on influence of CRF on calcitonin (CT)-producing cells of the thyroid glands ...

IL-10: the master regulator of immunity to infection.

, 2008
IL-10 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine. During infection it inhibits the activity of Th1 cells, NK cells, and macrophages, all of which are required for optimal pathogen clearance but also contribute to tissue damage.
