Journal ArticleDOI

Matrix metalloproteinase-9 triggers the angiogenic switch during carcinogenesis

TL;DR: The results show that MMP-9 is a component of theAngiogenic switch, and MMP inhibitors reduce angiogenic switching, and tumour number and growth, as does genetic ablation of M MP-9.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in T-cell antigen receptor genes α and β block thymocyte development at different stages

TL;DR: Analysis of mice carrying mutant T-cell antigen receptor (TCP) genes indicates that TCP-β gene rearrangement or expression is critical for the differentiation of CD4− CD8− thymocyte to CD4+CD8+ thymocytes, as well as for the expansion of the pool ofCD4+ CD8+ cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roles of continuous neurogenesis in the structural and functional integrity of the adult forebrain

TL;DR: It is suggested that continuous neurogenesis is required for the maintenance and reorganization of the whole interneuron system in the olfactory bulb, the modulation and refinement of the existing neuronal circuits in the dentate gyrus and the normal behaviors involved in hippocampal-dependent memory.
Journal Article

Reduced angiogenesis and tumor progression in gelatinase A-deficient mice.

TL;DR: It is indicated that host-derived gelatinase A plays an important role in angiogenesis and tumor progression, suggesting the usefulness of gelatin enzyme A inhibitors for anticancer chemotherapy.
