Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate Receptor: Loss of cAMP-Dependent DNA Binding Activity after Proteolysis in the Presence of Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate
Joseph S. Krakow,Ira Pastan +1 more
TL;DR: After proteolysis in the presence of cAMP, analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfateacrylamide-gel electrophoresis shows that the 22,500-dalton subunit characteristic of the untreated protein has been completely replaced by a 12,500 -dalton fragment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Targeting malignant B cells with an immunotoxin against ROR1
TL;DR: The data suggest that R OR1-immunotoxins such as BT-1 could serve as targeted therapeutic agents for ROR1-expressing B cell malignancies and other cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
POTE, a highly homologous gene family located on numerous chromosomes and expressed in prostate, ovary, testis, placenta, and prostate cancer
Tapan K. Bera,Drazen B. Zimonjic,Nicholas C. Popescu,Bangalore K. Sathyanarayana,Vasantha Kumar,Byungkook Lee,Ira Pastan +6 more
TL;DR: expression of POTE in prostate cancer and its undetectable expression in normal essential tissues make POTE a candidate for the immunotherapy of prostate cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human CTLs to wild-type and enhanced epitopes of a novel prostate and breast tumor-associated protein, TARP, lyse human breast cancer cells.
Sangkon Oh,Masaki Terabe,C. David Pendleton,Anu Bhattacharyya,Tapan K. Bera,Malka Epel,Yoram Reiter,John Phillips,W. Marston Linehan,Claude Kasten-Sportes,Ira Pastan,Jay A. Berzofsky +11 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that HLA-A2-binding TARP epitopes and enhanced epitopes discovered in this study could be incorporated into a potential vaccine for both breast and prostate cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Receptor-mediated endocytosis in cultured fibroblasts: cryptic coated pits and the formation of receptosomes.
Mark C. Willingham,Angelina V. Rutherford,M G Gallo,Jürgen Wehland,Robert B. Dickson,R Schlegel,Ira Pastan +6 more
TL;DR: Mechanisms by which receptosomes may form and other evidence demonstrating the failure of coated pits to pinch off to form isolated coated vesicles during endocytosis are discussed.
