Journal ArticleDOI

Isoprenoid addition to Ras protein is the critical modification for its membrane association and transforming activity

TL;DR: One farnesylated mutant did not undergo either proteolysis or carboxyl methylation but still displayed efficient membrane association and transforming activity, indicating thatfarnesylation alone can support Ras transforming activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A phase I and pharmacokinetic study of NK105, a paclitaxel-incorporating micellar nanoparticle formulation

TL;DR: The maximum tolerated dose (MTD), the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), the recommended dose (RD) for phase II, and the pharmacokinetics of NK105, a new polymeric micelle carrier system for paclitaxel (PTX) were examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of side-population cells in human normal endometrium

TL;DR: SP cells in the human endometrium can function as progenitor cells and show long-term repopulating properties and produced gland- or stroma-like cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

FGFR2 gene amplification and clinicopathological features in gastric cancer

TL;DR: The established PCR-based copy number assay could be a powerful tool for detecting FGFR2 amplification using FFPE samples and the results strongly encourage the development of FGFR-targeted therapy for gastric cancers with FGFR 2 amplification.
Journal ArticleDOI

ZAC, LIT1 (KCNQ1OT1) and p57KIP2 (CDKN1C) are in an imprinted gene network that may play a role in Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome

TL;DR: The data suggest that ZAC may regulate p57KIP2 through LIT1, forming part of a novel signaling pathway regulating cell growth, and contribute to Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome.
