Journal ArticleDOI
Hematopoietic stem cell and progenitor cell mechanisms in myelodysplastic syndromes
Wendy W. Pang,John V. Pluvinage,Elizabeth A. Price,Kunju Sridhar,Daniel A. Arber,Peter L. Greenberg,Stanley L. Schrier,Christopher Y. Park,Irving L. Weissman +8 more
TL;DR: A recurrent loss of granulocyte-macrophage progenitors (GMPs) in the bone marrow of low risk MDS patients that can distinguish lowrisk MDS from clinical mimics, thus providing a simple diagnostic tool.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interaction of rat hormone-sensitive lipase with adipocyte lipid-binding protein
TL;DR: Results suggest that HSL-derived fatty acids are bound by ALBP to facilitate intracellular trafficking of hydrophobic lipids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heme oxygenase-mediated resistance to oxygen toxicity in hamster fibroblasts
Phyllis A. Dennery,Kunju Sridhar,Christen S. Lee,Hubert E. Wong,Vida Shokoohi,Pamela A. Rodgers,Douglas R. Spitz +6 more
TL;DR: HO mediates cytoprotection to oxygen toxicity within a narrow range of expression and it is speculated that this protective effect may be mediated in part through increased metabolism of the pro-oxidant heme but that higher levels of HO activity obviate protection by increased redox active iron release.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protective effects of transient HO-1 overexpression on susceptibility to oxygen toxicity in lung cells
Denise M. Suttner,Kunju Sridhar,Christen S. Lee,Toshiya Tomura,Thomas N. Hansen,Phyllis A. Dennery +5 more
TL;DR: Rat fetal lung cells were transiently transfected with a full-length rat heme oxygenase (HO)-1 cDNA construct and exposed to hyperoxia to conclude that moderate overexpression of HO-1 is protective against oxidative injury, but it is speculated that there is a beneficial threshold ofHO-1 expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the functional interaction of adipocyte lipid-binding protein with hormone-sensitive lipase.
Wen-Jun Shen,Yu Liang,Richard Hong,Shailja Patel,Vanita Natu,Kunju Sridhar,Anne E. Jenkins,David A. Bernlohr,Fredric B. Kraemer +8 more
TL;DR: HSL and ALBP constitute a functionally important lipolytic complex that increases the hydrolytic activity of HSL through its ability to bind and sequester fatty acids and via specific protein-protein interaction.
