Bone morphogenetic protein antagonist gremlin 1 is widely expressed by cancer-associated stromal cells and can promote tumor cell proliferationJulie B Sneddon
Department of Biochemistry, Stanford University Medical Center, Stanford, CA 94305, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 103:14842-7. 2006..Our data suggest that BMP antagonists may be important constituents of tumor stroma, providing a favorable microenvironment for cancer cell survival and expansion in many cancers...
Distinct pathways of genomic progression to benign and malignant tumors of the liverAaron D Tward
G W Hooper Foundation and Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 104:14771-6. 2007....
Integration of genomic analysis and in vivo transfection to identify sprouty 2 as a candidate tumor suppressor in liver cancerSusie A Lee
Department of Biopharmaceutical Sciences, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Hepatology 47:1200-10. 2008..In addition, we demonstrate that the integration of genomic analysis and in vivo transfection is a powerful tool to identify genes that are important during hepatic carcinogenesis...
Inhibition of CDK1 as a potential therapy for tumors over-expressing MYCAndrei Goga
Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology Oncology, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143 0552, USA
Nat Med 13:820-7. 2007..As there are no effective small-molecule inhibitors that selectively target the MYC pathway, we propose that CDK1 inhibition might therefore be useful in the treatment of human malignancies that overexpress MYC...
Systemic rather than local heme oxygenase-1 overexpression improves cardiac allograft outcomes in a new transgenic mouseJesus A Araujo
Division of Cardiology, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
J Immunol 171:1572-80. 2003..This Tg mouse provides a valuable tool to study mechanisms by which HO-1 exerts beneficial effects in organ transplantation...
Toxicity of chlorpyrifos and chlorpyrifos oxon in a transgenic mouse model of the human paraoxonase (PON1) Q192R polymorphismToby B Cole
Department of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195-7720, USA
Pharmacogenet Genomics 15:589-98. 2005..CONCLUSION: These results indicate that individuals expressing only the PON1Q192 allele would be more sensitive to the adverse effects of CPO or CPS exposure, especially if they are expressing a low level of plasma PON1Q192...
