Dll4-Notch signaling as a therapeutic target in tumor angiogenesis
Tumor angiogenesis is an important target for cancer therapy, with most current therapies designed to block the VEGF signaling pathway. However, clinical resistance to anti-VEGF therapy highlights the need for targeting additional tumor angiogenesis signaling pathways.

Correlation between pre-operative VE-cadherin and DLL4 and the maturation after primary arteriovenous fistula in uremic patients [PDF]
Aims Uremic patients require dialysis to replace the declined kidney function, and arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a commonly used dialysis access route. Our study aimed to explore vascular endothelial cells cadherin (VE-cadherin) and Delta-like ligand 4 (

Multi-instanton calculus in N=2 supersymmetric QCD [PDF]
Microscopic tests of the exact results are performed in N=2 SU(2) supersymmetric QCD. We construct the multi-instanton solution in N=2 supersymmetric QCD and calculate the two-instanton contribution ${\cal F}_2$ to the prepotential ${\cal F}$ explicitly.

Manipulation of a VEGF-Notch signaling circuit drives formation of functional vascular endothelial progenitors from human pluripotent stem cells [PDF]
Human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived endothelial lineage cells constitutes a promising source for therapeutic revascularization, but progress in this arena has been hampered by a lack of clinically-scalable differentiation protocols and inefficient

Stellate cells, hepatocytes, and endothelial cells imprint the Kupffer cell identity on monocytes colonizing the liver macrophage niche [PDF]
Macrophages are strongly adapted to their tissue of residence. Yet, little is known about the cell-cell interactions that imprint the tissue-specific identities of macrophages in their respective niches. Using conditional depletion of liver Kupffer cells,

The role of Notch receptors and ligands in regulation of immune responses [PDF]
Notch signalling has an important role in the immune system in directing cell fate decisions in a range of diverse cell types. We are beginning to obtain a better understanding of the roles that the different Notch ligands and receptors play in both ...
