Update on HER-2 as a target for cancer therapy: alternative strategies for targeting the epidermal growth factor system in cancer [PDF]

, 2001
The epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of ligands and receptors interact to influence cell division, differentiation and motility. Much evidence supports their importance in causing and sustaining cell transformation in model systems and in human ...

Considerations on facetting and on the atomic structure of the phase boundary in low-pressure solution growth of GaN

, 2022
S.133-137GaN crystals grown from solution and vapor phase show pronounced facetting. In order to explain the occurrence of the facets, Jackson's alpha-factor is determined for the III-nitrides under various growth conditions.

Immunological studies of chronic ocular toxoplasmosis : up-regulation of major histocompatibility complex class I and transforming growth factor beta and a protective role for interleukin-6 [PDF]

, 2001
A murine model was used to characterize the local immune and inflammatory response during ocular toxoplasmosis. Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I, normally expressed at low levels in immune-privileged sites such as the eye, was up-regulated ...

Role of fibroblast growth factor 8 in growth and progression of hormonal cancer

, 2007
Hormonal cancers such as breast and prostate cancer arise from steroid hormone-regulated tissues. In addition to breast and prostate cancer hormonal regulation has also a role in endometrial, ovarian, testis and thyroid carcinomas.

Compartmentalisation-based design automation method for power grid

IET Cyber-Physical Systems, 2017
Power grid design and maintenance are conducted to solve the problems caused by load growth over time and to stay within the constraints of voltage drop, power factor, etc. Typically, solutions to these problems are optimised individually.

Mutational activation of BRAF confers sensitivity to transforming growth factor beta inhibitors in human cancer cells. [PDF]

, 2016
Recent data implicate elevated transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) signalling in BRAF inhibitor drug-resistance mechanisms, but the potential for targeting TGFβ signalling in cases of advanced melanoma has not been investigated.
