Pretreatment of glioblastoma with bortezomib potentiates natural killer cell cytotoxicity through TRAIL/DR5 mediated apoptosis and prolongs animal survival
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-17)Background: Natural killer (NK) cells are potential effectors in anti-cancer immunotherapy; however only a subset potently kills cancer cells. Here, we examined whether pretreatment of glioblastoma (GBM) with the proteasome ... -
Prevalence and clinical correlates of insomnia in adults with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-08)Objective: To investigate the prevalence of insomnia in adults with Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and its association with clinical subtypes, current ADHD symptoms, and stimulant treatment. Method: We ... -
Probing cellular interactions in breast cancer and mouse models thereof
(Master thesis, 2024-06-03)The thesis is divided into two different topics: 1. Identifying which receptor, the S100A8 protein is binding to in obesity-induced breast cancer. 2. Implementing a new model for breast cancer in the proper cellular ... -
Propofol alleviates DNA damage induced by oxygen glucose deprivation and reperfusion via FoxO1 nuclear translocation in H9c2 cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-15)Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury induces irreversible oxidative stress damage to the cardiac myocytes. Many studies have revealed that propofol alleviates the important organelle-mediated injury from oxidative stress in ... -
Propofol ameliorates H9c2 cells apoptosis induced by oxygen glucose deprivation and reperfusion injury via inhibiting high levels of mitochondrial fusion and fission
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-02-12)Background: The cardioprotective effect of propofol on ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R injury) is partly due to suppressing apoptosis. Mitochondrial dynamics are also involved in apoptosis. Mitochondrial fusion and fission ... -
Protein expression profiling of plasma and lungs at different stages of metastatic development in a human triple negative breast cancer xenograft model.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-05-01)The main objective of this study was to identify single proteins or protein networks that might be used as diagnostic biomarkers or for therapeutic purposes by evaluating the protein expression profiling of plasma and lungs ... -
Protein target highlights in CASP15: Analysis of models by structure providers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We present an in-depth analysis of selected CASP15 targets, focusing on their biological and functional significance. The authors of the structures identify and discuss key protein features and evaluate how effectively ... -
Proteogenomic Analysis of Polymorphisms and Gene Annotation Divergences in Prokaryotes using a Clustered Mass Spectrometry-Friendly Database
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-01)Precise annotation of genes or open reading frames is still a difficult task that results in divergence even for data generated from the same genomic sequence. This has an impact in further proteomic studies, and also ... -
Proteoglycans contribute to the functional integrity of the glomerular endothelial cell surface layer and are regulated in diabetic kidney disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)All capillary endothelia, including those of the glomeruli, have a luminal cell surface layer (ESL) consisting of glycoproteins, glycolipids, proteoglycans (PGs) and glycosaminoglycans. Previous results have demonstrated ... -
Proteomic analysis of neonatal meningitis-causing Escherichia coli
