examined whether peer chart audits performed ...
Osteomyelitis Infection of Mycobacterium marinum: A Case Report and Literature Review
(2014-12)
Mycobacterium marinum (M. marinum) is a ubiquitous waterborne organism that grows optimally at temperatures around 30°C. It is a nontuberculous Mycobacterium found in nonchlorinated water with worldwide prevalence. It is ...
MCF-7 breast cancer cells transfected with protein kinase C-alpha exhibit altered expression of other protein kinase C isoforms and display a more aggressive neoplastic phenotype.
(East Carolina University, 1995-04)
Increased protein kinase C (PKC) activity in malignant breast tissue and positive correlations between PKC activity and expression of a more aggressive phenotype in breast cancer cell lines suggest a role for this signal ...
Phorbol esters induce death in MCF-7 breast cancer cells with altered expression of protein kinase C isoforms. Role for p53-independent induction of gadd-45 in initiating death.
(East Carolina University, 1995-10)
Protein kinase C (PKC) modulates growth, differentiation, and apoptosis in a cell-specific fashion. Overexpression of PKC-a in MCF-7 breast cancer cells (MCF-7-PKC-a cell) leads to expression of a more transformed phenotype. ...
Quantum dot labeling of mesenchymal stem cells
(East Carolina University, 2007-11-07)
Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells with the potential to
differentiate into bone, cartilage, fat and muscle cells and are being investigated for their utility in
cell-based transplantation ...
Statins induce lethal effects in acute myeloblastic lymphoma cells within 72 hours
(East Carolina University, 2008-02)
HMG-CoA Reductase inhibitors (statins) induce apoptosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells in vitro; however, the concentrations associated with cell death in AML cells are higher than those clinically tolerated during ...
Systematic review of diagnostic tests for vaginal trichomoniasis.
(East Carolina University, 2000)
Objective: To review critically and to summarize the evidence of diagnostic tests and culture media for the diagnosis of Trichomonas vaginitis. Methods: We performed a systematic review of literature indexed in MEDLINE of ...
Postvaccinial (influenza) disseminated encephalopathy (Brown-Sequard syndrome).
(East Carolina University, 1995-09)
This article reports a case of Brown-Sequard syndrome that occurred in a patient following the administration of trivalent influenza vaccine. The patient responded well to intravenous steroids and physical therapy. This ...
