Journal ArticleDOI

STAT proteins: from normal control of cellular events to tumorigenesis.

TL;DR: Signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) proteins comprise a family of transcription factors latent in the cytoplasm that participate in normal cellular events, such as differentiation, proliferation, cell survival, apoptosis, and angiogenesis following cytokine, growth factor, and hormone signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting human {gamma}delta} T cells with zoledronate and interleukin-2 for immunotherapy of hormone-refractory prostate cancer

TL;DR: Zoledronate + IL-2 represents a novel, safe, and feasible approach to induce immunologic and clinical responses in patients with metastatic carcinomas, potentially providing a substantially increased window for specific approaches to be administered.
Journal ArticleDOI

The TP53 Colorectal Cancer International Collaborative Study on the Prognostic and Predictive Significance of p53 Mutation: Influence of Tumor Site, Type of Mutation, and Adjuvant Treatment

TL;DR: Analysis of TP53 mutations from a large cohort of CRC patients has identified tumor site, type of mutation, and adjuvant treatment as important factors in determining the prognostic significance of this genetic alteration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induction of γδ T-lymphocyte effector functions by bisphosphonate zoledronic acid in cancer patients in vivo

TL;DR: Bisphosphonates are analogues of endogenous pyrophosphate in which a carbon atom replaces the central atom of oxygen and this carbon substitution makes these compounds resistant to hydrolysis and allows 2 additional chains of variable structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

miR-20b modulates VEGF expression by targeting HIF-1 alpha and STAT3 in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated, for the first time, that the VEGF expression in breast cancer cells is mediated by HIF‐1 and STAT3 in a miR‐20b‐dependent manner.
