Hox-gene expression as a biomarker for igf-1r therapeutics
(2008-09-25)This invention provides methods for treating or preventing the onset of a tumor in a subject, wherein the tumor is determined to overexpress a Hox gene, including administering to the subject a therapeutically or ... -
The HPV Vaccination Project: HPV Vaccination Following Pediatric Sexual Abuse
(2018-07-17)The nonavalent human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccination prophylactically contributes to the prevention of nine types of HPV associated with vaginal, anal, oropharyngeal, labial, cervical and penile cancers. Rates of HPV ... -
The HTLV-1-encoded protein HBZ directly inhibits the acetyl transferase activity of p300/CBP
(2012-07)The homologous cellular coactivators p300 and CBP contain intrinsic lysine acetyl transferase (termed HAT) activity. This activity is responsible for acetylation of several sites on the histones as well as modification of ... -
Human antibodies for immunotherapy development generated via a human B cell hybridoma technology
(East Carolina University, 2006-03-07)Current strategies for the production of therapeutic mAbs include the use of mammalian cell systems to recombinantly produce Abs derived from mice bearing human Ig transgenes, humanization of rodent Abs, or phage ... -
HUMAN RNA METHYLTRANSFERASE METTL16 AFFECTS MULTIPLE CELL PROCESSES THROUGH DIFFERENTIAL FUNCTION OF ITS DOMAINS
(East Carolina University, 2022-11-10)ABSTRACT In recent years, disease therapies have been developed to target specific RNA and protein expression changes in the affected cells/tissue. The RNA post-transcriptional modification, methyl-6-adenosine (m6A), has ... -
Human T-Cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) bZIP Protein Interacts with the Cellular Transcription Factor CREB To Inhibit HTLV-1 Transcription
(East Carolina University, 2007-02)The complex human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) retrovirus encodes several proteins that are unique to the virus within its 3 -end region. Among them, the viral transactivator Tax and posttranscriptional regulator ... -
Human T-cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 Basic Leucine Zipper Factor (HBZ) Interacts and Inhibits the Acetyltransferase Activity of Multiple Cellular Coactivator Families to Deregulate Transcription
(East Carolina University, 1/13/16)Of the 20 million individuals infected worldwide with the complex retrovirus, Human T-cell Leukemia Virus Type 1, 5% will develop an incurable and fatal form of leukemia known as adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). During the ... -
Human T-Cell Leukemia Virus Type I Basic Leucine Zipper Factor (HBZ) Modulates Cellular DNA Damage Repair and Antioxidant Responses to Promote Host Cell Survival and Leukemogenesis
(East Carolina University, 2018-04-19)Approximately twenty million people worldwide are infected with Human T-cell Leukemia Virus type 1 (HTLV-1). HTLV-1 establishes a life-long, chronic infection which can result in the development of severe HTLV-1 associated ... -
HuR binds to a single site on the C/EBP - beta mRNA of 3T3-L1 Adipocytes
(East Carolina University, 2007-03-30)HuR is a ligand for nuclear mRNAs containing adenylate-uridylate rich elements in the 3'- untranslated region. Once bound to the mRNA, HuR is recognized by adapter proteins which then facilitate nuclear export of the ... -
HuR involvement in mitotic clonal expansion during acquisition of the adipocyte phenotype
(East Carolina University, 2009-05-29)In the nucleus HuR binds to mRNAs containing adenylate-uridylate rich elements in the 3?- untranslated region. HuR may influence expression of its ligand mRNA through regulation of polyadenylation, translocation of the ... -
Hyaluronan Oligosaccharides Inhibit Tumorigenicity of Osteosarcoma Cell Lines MG-63 and LM-8 in Vitro and in Vivo via Perturbation of Hyaluronan-Rich Pericellular Matrix of the Cells
(East Carolina University, 2007-07)Numerous studies have demonstrated a correlation between hyaluronan expression and the malignant properties of various kinds of cancer , and inhibition of hyaluronan production causes decreased tumor growth. Hyaluronan ... -
Hypertension Treatment Adherence with 3-D Models
(2019-12-04)Hypertension treatment adherence is a significant issue in the United States. Almost half of patients with diagnosed hypertension are non-adherent with medications and/or diet and appointment keeping with their provider. ... -
Hypothermia in trauma patients: predicting the big chill
(2012)Physicians commonly ignore hypothermia, an often-underappreciated event associated with mortality in trauma patients, in general due to its prevalence and belief that it is secondary to the injury itself (secondary ... -
Hypothesis for induction and propagation of chemical sensitivity based on biopsy studies.
(East Carolina University, 1997-03)The reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS), the reactive upper airways dysfunction syndrome (RUDS), the sick building syndrome (SBS), and the multiple chemical sensitivity syndrome (MCS) are overlapping disorders ... -
