Desmoid tumour: a rare etiology of intestinal obstruction

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2015
Intestinal obstruction is a frequently encountered entity in surgical practice. The signs and symptoms, many a times, are suggestive of the level of obstruction, making the diagnosis of obstruction evident.

Surgical treatment of colorectal cancer complicated with acute intestinal obstruction

open access: yesТазовая хирургия и онкология, 2016
Background. The main reason for urgent complications of colon cancer is an acute intestinal obstruction (AIO). This is complex pathological condition in 90 % of cases caused by colorectal cancer (CRC).Objective – to evaluate radicality of the performed ...

Cyclic nucleotide signaling as a drug target in retinitis pigmentosa

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Disruptions in cGMP and cAMP signaling can contribute to retinal dysfunction and photoreceptor loss in retinitis pigmentosa. This perspective examines the mechanisms and evaluates emerging evidence on targeting these pathways as a potential therapeutic strategy to slow or prevent retinal degeneration.

Etiological Spectrum of Dynamic Intestinal Obstruction

open access: yesGomal Journal of Medical Sciences, 2004
Background: Intestinal obstruction is a common and potentially dangerous surgical emergency with high morbidity and mortality if managed inappropriately. It is essential to distinguish between its various types. The aim of this study was to determine the

Rewriting the dendritic cell code in cancer—from subset identity to immunotherapeutic design

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Dendritic cells (DCs) play central roles in cancer immunity but are often subverted by the tumor microenvironment. This review explores the diversity of DC subsets, their functional plasticity, and emerging therapeutic strategies to reprogram DCs for enhanced antitumor responses, including vaccines, in vivo targeting, and DC‐based immunotherapies ...

Prevention of intestinal obstruction reveals progressive neurodegeneration in mutant TDP-43 (A315T) mice

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2014
BackgroundIntraneuronal inclusions of TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) have been found in the majority of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) patients. Mutations in the gene encoding TDP-43 cause familial ALS.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis sulfurtransferase SseA is activated by its neighboring gene product Rv3284

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Tuberculosis remains a global health challenge and new therapeutic targets are required. Here, we characterized SseA, a sulfurtransferase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis involved in macrophage infection, and its interaction with the newly identified protein SufEMtb that activates SseA enzymatic activity.

EXPERIMENTAL INTESTINAL OBSTRUCTION [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Internal Medicine, 1918
REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE The following experimental work was begun in the summer of 1915, at the suggestion of Dr. A. J. Carlson, as a further contribution toward the explanation of the cause of death in acute ileus, or high intestinal obstruction.

MET variants with activating N‐lobe mutations identified in hereditary papillary renal cell carcinomas still require ligand stimulation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MET variants in the N‐lobe of the kinase domain, found in hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma, require ligand stimulation to promote cell transformation, in contrast to other RTK variants. This suggests that HGF expression in the microenvironment is important for tumor growth in such patients. Their sensitivity to MET inhibitors opens the way for
