Liakou, Chrysoula I., Kamat, Ashish, Tang, Derek Ng, Chen, Hong, Sun, Jingjing, Troncoso, Patricia, ...

Significant anti-tumor responses have been reported in a small subset of cancer patients treated with the immunotherapeutic agent anti-CTLA-4 antibody. All clinical trials to date, comprising over...

Genetic variation in eight Chinese cattle breeds based on the analysis of microsatellite markers

Sun, Weibin, Chen, Hong, Lei, Chuzhao, Lei, Xueqin, Zhang, Yinghan

Genetic variability and genetic relationships were investigated among eight Chinese cattle breeds using 12 microsatellite markers. Three hundred and fifty-two alleles were detected and the average...

AIP1 Is Critical in Transducing IRE1-mediated Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Response*

Luo, Dianhong, He, Yun, Zhang, Haifeng, Yu, Luyang, Chen, Hong, Xu, Zhe, ...

We have previously shown that ASK1-interacting protein 1 (AIP1) transduces tumor necrosis factor-induced ASK1-JNK signaling. Because endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress activates ASK1-JNK signaling...

Chen, Hong, Li, Fei, Sun, Jia-Bang, Jia, Jian-Guo

AIM: To study retrospectively the influence of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) in patients with early acute pancreatitis (AP) (during the first week after...

Anti-CTLA-4 therapy results in higher CD4+ICOShi T cell frequency and IFN-γ levels in both nonmalignant and malignant prostate tissues

Chen, Hong, Liakou, Chrysoula I., Kamat, Ashish, Pettaway, Curtis, Ward, John F., Tang, Derek Ng, ...

Cytotoxic lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) blockade is an active immunotherapeutic strategy that is currently in clinical trials in cancer. There are several ongoing trials of anti-CTLA-4 in the...

Therapy for acute pancreatitis with platelet-activating factor receptor antagonists

Chen, Chong, Xia, Shi-Hai, Chen, Hong, Li, Xiao-Hong

Acute pancreatitis (AP) causes release of platelet-activating factor (PAF), which induces systemic effects that contribute to circulatory disturbances and multiple organ failure. PAF is a cell...
