Journal ArticleDOI

Antitumor activity and mechanism of action of the cyclopenta[b]benzofuran, silvestrol.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the results of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Training Grant and the US Lymphoma Foundation Training Grant (USLGF).
Journal ArticleDOI

Vitamin D Induces Interleukin-1β Expression: Paracrine Macrophage Epithelial Signaling Controls M. tuberculosis Infection

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the anti-microbial actions of vitamin D extend beyond the macrophage by modulating paracrine signaling, reinforcing its role in innate immune regulation in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Altering Chemosensitivity by Modulating Translation Elongation

TL;DR: The results indicate that depleting short-lived pro-survival factors by inhibiting their synthesis could achieve a therapeutic response in tumors harboring PTEN/AKT/mTOR pathway mutations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synergistic effect of inhibiting translation initiation in combination with cytotoxic agents in acute myelogenous leukemia cells

TL;DR: This work investigates the sensitivity of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) cell lines to protein synthesis inhibition in combination with the standard cytotoxic agents daunorubicin, etoposide, and cytarabine and shows synergy with standard-of-care agents in AML cell lines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenylpyrrolocytosine as an unobtrusive base modification for monitoring activity and cellular trafficking of siRNA.

TL;DR: These findings demonstrate that PhpC-modified siRNAs retain the properties of natural si RNAs while allowing for fluorescence-based detection and monitoring, providing an ideal system for probing siRNA uptake and trafficking.
