Journal ArticleDOI
Resected adenocarcinoma of the pancreas— 616 patients: Results, outcomes, and prognostic indicators
Taylor A. Sohn,Charles J. Yeo,John L. Cameron,Leonidas G. Koniaris,Sunjay Kaushal,Ross A. Abrams,Patricia K. Sauter,JoAnn Coleman,Ralph H. Hruban,Keith D. Lillemoe +9 more
TL;DR: Factors influencing long-term survival after resection in patients with adenocarcinoma of the head, neck, uncinate process, body, or tail of the pancreas are examined to decrease the independent significance of tumor location and nodal status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of cachexia in mice by systemically administered myostatin
Teresa A. Zimmers,Monique V. Davies,Leonidas G. Koniaris,Paul A. Haynes,Aurora F. Esquela,Kathy Tomkinson,Alexandra C. McPherron,Neil M. Wolfman,Se-Jin Lee +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that myostatin circulates in the blood of adult mice in a latent form that can be activated by acid treatment, and may be a useful pharmacologic target in clinical settings such as cachexia, where muscle growth is desired.
Journal ArticleDOI
Suppressor of cytokine signaling-3 (SOCS-3), a potential mediator of interleukin-6-dependent insulin resistance in hepatocytes
Joseph J. Senn,Peter J. Klover,Irena A. Nowak,Teresa A. Zimmers,Leonidas G. Koniaris,Richard W. Furlanetto,Robert A. Mooney +6 more
TL;DR: Induction of SOCS-3 in liver may be an important mechanism of IL-6-mediated insulin resistance, as demonstrated by the demonstrated inhibition of insulin signaling in hepatocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic exposure to interleukin-6 causes hepatic insulin resistance in mice.
TL;DR: The data suggest that chronic IL-6 treatment selectively impairs hepatic insulin signaling in vivo, further supporting a role for IL- 6 in hepatics insulin resistance of obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pediatric thyroid carcinoma: incidence and outcomes in 1753 patients.
TL;DR: Male gender, nonpapillary tumor, distant metastases, and nonsurgical treatment all predict worse outcome, and papillary thyroid cancer has overall excellent survival.
