Journal ArticleDOI
The clinically used photosensitizer Verteporfin (VP) inhibits YAP-TEAD and human retinoblastoma cell growth in vitro without light activation
Katarzyna Brodowska,Ahmad Al-Moujahed,Anna Marmalidou,Melissa Meyer zu Horste,Joanna Cichy,Joan W. Miller,Evangelos S. Gragoudas,Demetrios G. Vavvas +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the clinically used photosensitizer VP is a potent inhibitor of cell growth in retinoblastoma cells, disrupting YAP-TEAD signaling and pluripotential marker OCT4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Verteporfin inhibits growth of human glioma in vitro without light activation
Ahmad Al-Moujahed,Katarzyna Brodowska,Tomasz P. Stryjewski,Nikolaos Efstathiou,Ioannis Vasilikos,Joanna Cichy,Joan W. Miller,Evangelos S. Gragoudas,Demetrios G. Vavvas +8 more
TL;DR: The effects of VP without light activation on human glioma cell lines demonstrated a downregulation of YAP-TEAD-associated downstream signaling molecules and upregulation of the tumor growth inhibitor molecule p38 MAPK.
Journal ArticleDOI
Verteporfin-induced formation of protein cross-linked oligomers and high molecular weight complexes is mediated by light and leads to cell toxicity
Eleni K. Konstantinou,Shoji Notomi,Cassandra Kosmidou,Katarzyna Brodowska,Ahmad Al-Moujahed,Fotini Nicolaou,Pavlina Tsoka,Evangelos S. Gragoudas,Joan W. Miller,Lucy H. Young,Demetrios G. Vavvas +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that Verteporfin-induced HMWC require the presence of light and the mechanism of this cross-linking, which involves both singlet oxygen and radical generation, can occur very efficiently even after lysis of the cells, if the lysate is not protected from ambient light.
Journal ArticleDOI
Muslim patients in Ramadan: A review for primary care physicians.
Heba Abolaban,Ahmad Al-Moujahed +1 more
TL;DR: An overview of the main topics that primary care physicians may need to know in order to improve their cultural competence when caring for their fasting Muslim patients is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
An albumin leader sequence coupled with a cleavage site modification enhances the yield of recombinant C-terminal Mullerian Inhibiting Substance.
David Pépin,Mien V. Hoang,Fotini Nicolaou,Katherine Hendren,Leo Andrew Benedict,Ahmad Al-Moujahed,Amanda Sosulski,Anna Marmalidou,Demetrios G. Vavvas,Patricia K. Donahoe +9 more
TL;DR: Recent evidence suggests that MIS may effectively target a putative ovarian cancer target and inhibit ovarian cancer cells both in-vitro and in- vivo.
