Empowering the deaf. Let the deaf be deaf [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Epidemiology and Community Health, 2000
Deafness is often regarded as just a one and only phenomenon. Accordingly, deaf people are pictured as a unified body of people who share a single problem. From a medical point of view, we find it usual to work with a classification of deafness in which pathologies attributable to an inner ear disorder are segregated from pathologies attributable to an

ASTX660, an antagonist of cIAP1/2 and XIAP, increases antigen processing machinery and can enhance radiation-induced immunogenic cell death in preclinical models of head and neck cancer

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2020
Inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP) antagonists have shown activity in preclinical models of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), and work across several cancer types has demonstrated diverse immune stimulatory effects including enhancement of

Comprehensive multiomic characterization of human papillomavirus-driven recurrent respiratory papillomatosis reveals distinct molecular subtypes

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Cem Sievers et al. performed genomic and transcriptomic analysis in human recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). They found that RRP harbors few genomic alterations, but that distinct transcriptional subtypes correlate with HPV gene expression and ...

Molecular diagnostics for congenital hearing loss including 15 deafness genes using a next generation sequencing platform [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Hereditary hearing loss (HL) can originate from mutations in one of many genes involved in the complex process of hearing. Identification of the genetic defects in patients is currently labor intensive and expensive.

WEE1 kinase inhibition reverses G2/M cell cycle checkpoint activation to sensitize cancer cells to immunotherapy

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2018
Intrinsic resistance to cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) killing limits responses to immune activating anti-cancer therapies. Here, we established that activation of the G2/M cell cycle checkpoint results in tumor cell cycle pause and protection from ...
