Highly multiplexed digital PCR assay for simultaneous quantification of variant allele frequencies and copy number alterations of KRAS and GNAS in pancreatic cancer precursors

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining melting curve analysis enhances the multiplexing capability of digital PCR. Here, we developed a 14‐plex assay to simultaneously measure single nucleotide mutations and amplifications of KRAS and GNAS, which are common driver genes in pancreatic cancer precursors. This assay accurately quantified variant allele frequencies in clinical samples

Calcium-channel blockers for the prevention of stroke: from scientific evidences to the clinical practice

Italian Journal of Medicine, 2013
AIM OF THE REVIEW The present review aims to analyze the role of calcium-channel blockers, and particularly newer molecules, as first-line therapy for cerebrovascular disease. BACKGROUND Stroke is the leading cause of disability in the general population.

Structure, gating, and pharmacology of human CaV3.3 channel

Nature Communications, 2022
T-type calcium channels are implicated in many diseases. Here, multiple structures of CaV3.3 channel elucidate molecular mechanisms of T-type CaV channels activation at low voltage and interaction with different clinically used channel blockers.

ShcD adaptor protein drives invasion of triple negative breast cancer cells by aberrant activation of EGFR signaling

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identified adaptor protein ShcD as upregulated in triple‐negative breast cancer and found its expression to be correlated with reduced patient survival and increased invasion in cell models. Using a proteomic screen, we identified novel ShcD binding partners involved in EGFR signaling pathways.

Deregulation of calcium homeostasis in Bcr-Abl-dependent chronic myeloid leukemia [PDF]

Oncotarget, Impact journals, 2018, 2019
Background: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) results from hematopoietic stem cell transformation by the bcr-abl chimeric oncogene, encoding a 210 kDa protein with constitutive tyrosine kinase activity. In spite of the efficiency of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI; Imatinib), other strategies are explored to eliminate CML leukemia stem cells, such as ...

Flexible metro network architecture based on wavelength blockers and coherent transmission [PDF]

European Conference on Optical Communication (ECOC) 2019, 2020
A flexible semi-filterless architecture for metro DWDM networks with ring- or horseshoe topologies is presented. ROADM nodes are based on wavelength blockers. Coherent transmission enables filterless channel selection. Critical parameters are determined and a 4-span, 160-km horseshoe with 100Gbit/s DP-QPSK and 200Gbit/s DP-16QAM is demonstrated.

CD44v, S1PR1, HER3, MET and cancer‐associated amino acid transporters are promising targets for the pancreatic cancers characterized using mAb

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Novel mAbs could detect cancer‐associated membrane proteins on various type of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) by flow cytometry with viable PDAC cells and by immunohistochemistry with PDAC tissues. Results of protein expression were substantiated by mRNA expression by The Cancer Genome Atlas.

Calcium channel blocker poisoning

Zdravniški Vestnik, 2005
Background: Calcium channel blockers act at L-type calcium channels in cardiac and vascular smooth muscles by preventing calcium influx into cells with resultant decrease in vascular tone and cardiac inotropy, chronotropy and dromotropy.

HDAC4 regulates apoptosis in Acan‐CreERT2;HDAC4d/d mice with osteoarthritis by downregulating ATF4

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using the AcanCreERT2;HDAC4fl/fl genetic mouse model, we further investigated the role of histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) in chondrocyte apoptosis. We found that knocking down HDAC4 may be associated with chondrocyte apoptosis by upregulating the activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4)/CAAT/enhancer binding protein homologous (CHOP) signaling pathway ...

Combined use of beta-blockers and non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers: possible or contraindicated?

Российский кардиологический журнал
One of the most effective medications used for various cardiac diseases and syndromes to improve symptoms and, in some cases, prognosis, are betablockers (BBs) and calcium channel blockers (CCBs).
