Abstract Plasmodium falciparum infections remain among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in holoendemic transmission areas. Located within region 5q31.1, the colony-stimulating factor 2 gene (CSF2) encodes granulocyte–macrophage colony-

Purpose: Histone acetylation is one of the main mechanisms involved in regulation of gene expression. During carcinogenesis, tumor-suppressor genes can be silenced by aberrant histone deacetylation. This epigenetic modification has become an importan

Dendritic cells (DCs) are potent antigen-presenting cells that play a critical role in priming immune responses to tumor. Interleukin (IL)-23 can act directly on DC to promote immunogenic presentation of tumor peptide in vitro. Here, we evaluated the

The proteasome plays a pivotal role in controlling cell proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation in a variety of normal and tumor cells. PS-341, a novel boronic acid dipeptide that inhibits 26S proteasome activity, has prominent effects in vitro

Studies have shown an intimate relationship between cholesterol and retinal diseases; we examined the effects of cholesterol oxides on cultured cells. Using the rat retinal precursor cell line R28 and the human RPE cell line ARPE-19, we investigated

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in the elderly. We report an association between an Alu polymorphism in the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene with the dry/atrophic form of AMD. Using the polymerase chai

Endemic Burkitt lymphoma (eBL) is a fast-growing germinal center B cell lymphoma, affecting 5–10 per 100,000 children annually, in the equatorial belt of Africa. We hypothesize that co-infections with Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) malaria and Epstein-

TNFalpha is orverexpressed in the adipose tissue of obese rodents and humans, and is associated with insulin resistance. To more closely link TNF expression with whole body insulin action, we examined the expression of TNF by muscle, which is respons

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is a central enzyme in lipoprotein metabolism and is in part responsible for adipocyte lipid accumulation. Catecholamines are known to decrease the activity of LPL in adipocytes, and we have previously demonstrated that this

A previous study reported the increased expression of the cytokine TNF in the adipose tissue of genetically obese rodents. To examine this paradigm in humans, we studied TNF expression in lean, obese, and reduced-obese human subjects. TNF mRNA was de
