Journal ArticleDOI
An Fcγ Receptor-Dependent Mechanism Drives Antibody-Mediated Target-Receptor Signaling in Cancer Cells
Nicholas S. Wilson,Becky Yang,Annie Yang,Stefanie Loeser,Scot A. Marsters,David A. Lawrence,Yun Li,Robert M. Pitti,Klara Totpal,Sharon Yee,Sarajane Ross,Jean-Michel Vernes,Yanmei Lu,Cam Adams,Rienk Offringa,Bob Kelley,Sarah G. Hymowitz,Dylan Daniel,Gloria Meng,Avi Ashkenazi +19 more
TL;DR: FcγRs can drive antibody-mediated receptor signaling in target cells and be effective in the context of either activatory or inhibitory FcγR interactions, as in the case of rituximab.
Journal ArticleDOI
TWEAK Attenuates the Transition from Innate to Adaptive Immunity
Heather Maecker,Eugene Varfolomeev,Frank C. Kischkel,David A. Lawrence,Heidi LeBlanc,Wyne P. Lee,Stephen D. Hurst,Dimitry M. Danilenko,Jun Li,Ellen Filvaroff,Becky Yang,Dylan Daniel,Avi Ashkenazi +12 more
TL;DR: It is shown that, in contrast to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), the related protein TWEAK attenuates the transition from innate to adaptive mechanisms.

TL;DR: Growth curves of lung CSC-derived xenografts in control mice or mice treated with Bio-nFeR or NCI-FeR at 100 mg/kg dose for the indicated times are shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
TRAF2 Sets a Threshold for Extrinsic Apoptosis by Tagging Caspase-8 with a Ubiquitin Shutoff Timer
Francois Gonzalvez,David A. Lawrence,Becky Yang,Sharon Yee,Robert M. Pitti,Scot A. Marsters,Victoria Pham,Jean-Philippe Stephan,Jennie R. Lill,Avi Ashkenazi +9 more
TL;DR: TRAF2 sets a critical barrier for cell-extrinsic apoptosis commitment by tagging activated caspase-8 with a K48-ubiquitin shutoff timer, which may have important implications for casp enzyme regulation mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cooperation of the proapoptotic receptor agonist rhApo2L/TRAIL with the CD20 antibody rituximab against non-Hodgkin lymphoma xenografts
Dylan Daniel,Becky Yang,David A. Lawrence,Klara Totpal,Inessa Balter,Wyne P. Lee,Alvin Gogineni,Mary J. Cole,Sharon Yee,Sarajane Ross,Avi Ashkenazi +10 more
TL;DR: Findings provide a strong rationale for clinical investigation of rhApo2L/TRAIL in combination with rituximab as a novel strategy for NHL therapy.
