A Genome-Wide Screen Reveals Functional Gene Clusters in the Cancer Genome and Identifies EphA2 as a Mitogen in Glioblastoma

TL;DR: A novel genome-wide screen that combines patient outcome analysis with array comparative genomic hybridization and mRNA expression profiling was developed to identify genes with copy number alterations, aberrant mRNA expression, and relevance to survival in glioblastoma, leading to the discovery of physical gene clusters within the cancer genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Imprinted Gene PEG3 Inhibits Wnt Signaling and Regulates Glioma Growth

TL;DR: Mammalian imprinting utilizes Peg3/Pw1 to co-opt the Wnt pathway, thereby regulating development and glioma growth.

Method and apparatus for inducing anesthesia

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented an apparatus and methods for introducing spinal anesthesia directly into the subarachnoid space of a patient, using a small-gauge spinal needle for penetrating the dura; the other utilizes a small gauge catheter with an internal stylet having a non-piercing pencil point to spread apart the filaments.
Journal Article

The matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor batimastat (BB-94) retards human breast cancer solid tumor growth but not ascites formation in nude mice.

TL;DR: It is concluded that batimastat may have different effects on tumor progression and growth depending on the site of tumor implantation.
