Flk1-GFP BAC Tg Mice: An Animal Model for the Study of Blood Vessel Development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The mouse Flk1 (also called Kdr or Vegf-r2) gene encodes a receptor for VEGF-A. Flk1 is expressed in endothelial cells of the developing embryo. Recent studies have shown that Flk1 is expressed by multi-potent mesodermal progenitors, which give rise to ...

The Functional Role and Molecular Characterization of the Therapeutic Target CLDN6 in Germ Cell Tumors

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The tight junction protein CLDN6 has been identified as a cancer‐associated cell surface marker that is rarely expressed in healthy tissues. In testicular germ cell tumors (GCT), CLDN6 is particularly detectable in seminomas, embryonal carcinomas, and choriocarcinomas.

Germ-line DICER1 mutations do not make a major contribution to the etiology of familial testicular germ cell tumours. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The RNase III enzyme DICER1 plays a central role in maturation of microRNAs. Identification of neoplasia-associated germ-line and somatic mutations in DICER1 indicates that mis-expression of miRNAs in cancer may result from defects in their ...

Infection control in the brain and the eye

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...

Zebrafish as a practical and convenient model for the study of photodynamic and photothermal therapy of solid tumors: A scoping review

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Zebrafish provide a high‐throughput, optically transparent platform for cancer and drug screening. Their ~80% genetic homology, xenograft compatibility, and transgenic strains enable targeted photosensitizer screening, real‐time ROS and tumor imaging, and mechanistic assays, while fish embryo acute toxicity (FET) and in vitro tests streamline toxicity ...
