Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and evaluation of a macrocyclic bifunctional chelating agent for use with bismuth radionuclides.

TL;DR: Results indicate that BF_PEPA appears to not be a suitable bifunctional chelating agent for sequestering isotopes of Bi(III) for radioimmunotherapy applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energy-dependent calcium uptake by fibroblast microsomes.

TL;DR: Recent studies on the regulation of microsomal calcium uptake from cells grown in tissue culture concluded that both microsome preparations contain a “relaxing factor” that prevents contraction, which is an important regulatory ion in the control of both motility and growth of cells in tissueculture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Studies on an ACTH-activated adenyl cyclase from a mouse adrenal tumor

TL;DR: Adenyl cyclase from an ACTH sensitive adrenal tumor has been reduced to a molecular weight of 3 to 7 million by treatment of a lyophilized preparation of the particulate enzyme in a French pressure cell, a Nossal shaker or by sonication in the presence of both a phospholipid and fluoride.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recombinant Immunotoxins: From Basic Research to Cancer Therapy

TL;DR: This review describes immunotoxins, molecules that contain an antibody-derived antigen binding region (Fv) coupled to a bacterial toxin, most commonly Diphtheria toxin or Pseudomonas exotoxin.
Journal ArticleDOI

GDEP, a new gene differentially expressed in normal prostate and prostate cancer.

TL;DR: The database of human expressed sequence tags (dbEST) is a potential source for the identification of tissue specific genes from cDNA libraries from different tissues cell types and tumors.
