Journal ArticleDOI
Polygenic model of DNA repair genetic polymorphisms in human breast cancer risk.
Tasha R. Smith,Edward A. Levine,Rita I. Freimanis,Steven A. Akman,Glenn O. Allen,Kimberly N. Hoang,Wen Liu-Mares,Jennifer J. Hu +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that combined nsSNPs in multiple DNA repair pathways may contribute to breast cancer risk and larger studies are warranted to further evaluate polygenic models of DNA repair in breast cancerrisk.
Journal ArticleDOI
A rice‐derived recombinant human lactoferrin stimulates fibroblast proliferation, migration, and sustains cell survival
TL;DR: The findings reveal the multiple functions of holo‐rhLF in human skin fibroblasts and indicate its potential application in wound therapy by enhancing cell proliferation and migration as well as protecting cells from apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic polymorphisms of multiple DNA repair pathways impact age at diagnosis and TP53 mutations in breast cancer
Tasha R. Smith,Wen Liu-Mares,Beth O. Van Emburgh,Edward A. Levine,Glenn O. Allen,Jeff W. Hill,Isildinha M. Reis,Laura A. Kresty,Mark D. Pegram,Mark Steven Miller,Jennifer J. Hu +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that nsSNPs of multiple DNA repair pathways are associated with younger age at diagnosis and TP53 mutations in breast cancer and larger studies are warranted to further evaluate these associations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pancreatic cancer clusters and arsenic-contaminated drinking water wells in Florida
Wen Liu-Mares,Jill MacKinnon,Recinda L. Sherman,Lora E. Fleming,Lora E. Fleming,Caio Rocha-Lima,Jennifer J. Hu,David J. Lee +7 more
TL;DR: Exposure to arsenic-contaminated drinking water wells may be associated with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer, however, case–control studies are needed in order to confirm the findings of this ecological analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of a topical aqueous oxygen emulsion on collagen deposition and angiogenesis in a porcine deep partial‐thickness wound model
Jie Li,Jose Ollague Sierra,Linjian Zhu,Ling Tang,Kirah Rahill,Bassim El-Sabawi,Wen Liu-Mares,Patricia M. Mertz,Stephen C. Davis +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that sustained high levels of oxygen released by TOE may promote the process of wound repair through increasing collagen deposition and angiogenesis as well as stimulating epithelialization.
