Blockade of the Stromal Cell–Derived Factor-1/CXCR4 Axis Attenuates In vivo Tumor Growth by Inhibiting Angiogenesis in a Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor–Independent Manner

TL;DR: The data indicate that the SDF-1/CXCR4 pathway might be a general target for anticancer strategies and that blocking this system could be cooperatively effective in combination with other antiangiogenic therapies, such as blockade of VEGF.
Journal Article

Tolerance and immunity to MUC1 in a human MUC1 transgenic murine model

TL;DR: Data suggest that endogenous expression of MUC1 protein by M UC1 transgenic mice induces T-cell tolerance to stimulation by MUC2, and will facilitate the investigation of anti-MUC1 immunotherapy formulations.
Journal ArticleDOI

APSIC guide for prevention of Central Line Associated Bloodstream Infections (CLABSI)

TL;DR: A surveillance program is recommended to monitor outcomes and adherence to evidence-based central line insertion and maintenance practices (compliance rate) and identify quality improvement opportunities and strategically targeting interventions for the reduction of CLABSI.
Journal ArticleDOI

The human homologue of the RNA polymerase II-associated factor 1 (hPaf1), localized on the 19q13 amplicon, is associated with tumorigenesis.

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that the overexpression of PD2 in the NIH 3T3 cells result in enhanced growth rates in vitro and tumor formation in vivo, and it is demonstrated that PD2 is a nuclear 80 kDa protein, which interacts with RNA polymerase II.
Journal Article

CD4+ Lymphocytes Provide MUC1-Specific Tumor Immunity In Vivo That Is Undetectable In Vitro and Is Absent in MUC1 Transgenic Mice

TL;DR: Tumor immunity in vivo was characterized by an adoptive transfer method to evaluate the degree of MUC1 or non-MUC1 tumor immunity in wt or M UC1.Tg mice, indicating that tumor immune responses mediated by Muc1-specific CD4+ lymphocytes spare nontransformed epithelia-expressing MUC2.
