B cells are associated with survival and immunotherapy response in sarcoma
Nature, 2020 Soft-tissue sarcomas represent a heterogeneous group of cancer, with more than 50 histological subtypes1,2. The clinical presentation of patients with different subtypes is often atypical, and responses to therapies such as immune checkpoint blockade ...

Contribution of PDGFRα-positive cells in maintenance and injury responses in mouse large vessels
Scientific Reports, 2021 The maladaptive remodeling of vessel walls with neointima formation is a common feature of proliferative vascular diseases. It has been proposed that neointima formation is caused by the dedifferentiation of mature smooth muscle cells (SMCs).

Prediction of long term stability by extrapolation [PDF]
, 2000 This paper studies the possibility of using the survival function to predict long term stability by extrapolation. The survival function is a function of the initial coordinates and is the number of turns a particle will survive for a given set of ...

A gene-expression signature as a predictor of survival in breast cancer.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2002 BACKGROUND A more accurate means of prognostication in breast cancer will improve the selection of patients for adjuvant systemic therapy. METHODS Using microarray analysis to evaluate our previously established 70-gene prognosis profile, we classified
