Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and release of B-lymphocyte stimulator from myeloid cells

TL;DR: Results provide further support for an important role for BLyS expressed in myeloid cells in B-cell expansion and antibody responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using next-generation sequencing for high resolution multiplex analysis of copy number variation from nanogram quantities of DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens

TL;DR: It is confirmed that the next-generation sequencing technique can be used to interrogate DNA from cell lines, fresh frozen material and FFPE samples to assess copy number variation, and it is shown that as little as 5 ng of DNA is needed to generate a copy number karyogram.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fatigue: A main component of anemia symptomatology☆

TL;DR: Amelioration of anemia and fatigue should be considered a primary endpoint of antineoplastic and supportive-care treatment of cancer patients and the search for new simplified methods of assessment of fatigue and other anemia-related symptoms and their treatment outcomes should be strongly encouraged.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low-Dose Computed Tomography Screening for Lung Cancer and Pleural Mesothelioma in an Asbestos-Exposed Population: Baseline Results of a Prospective, Nonrandomized Feasibility Trial—An Alpe-Adria Thoracic Oncology Multidisciplinary Group Study (ATOM 002)

TL;DR: It is suggested that LDCT may be at least as useful in asbestos workers as in heavy smokers for the early diagnosis of lung cancer; this benefit is evident even in a poor-risk population, with low rates of smoking prevalence and a previous history of radiological surveillance.
