PMID: 23251095
Onco Targets Ther. 2012;5:439-47. doi: 10.2147/OTT.S37289. Epub 2012 Dec 12.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have reported that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation in tumor tissue and peripheral blood can predict the response to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the heterogeneity of the...

Enhanced efficacy of human brain-derived neural stem cells by transplantation of cell aggregates in a rat model of Parkinson's disease.

Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society

Shin ES, Hwang O, Hwang YS, Suh JK, Chun YI, Jeon SR.
PMID: 25535514
J Korean Neurosurg Soc. 2014 Nov;56(5):383-9. doi: 10.3340/jkns.2014.56.5.383. Epub 2014 Nov 30.

OBJECTIVE: Neural tissue transplantation has been a promising strategy for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, transplantation has the disadvantages of low-cell survival and/or development of dyskinesia. Transplantation of cell aggregates has the potential to overcome these problems,...

Sexual dimorphism in the hypophysiotropic tyrosine hydroxylase-positive neurons in the preoptic area of the teleost, Clarias batrachus.

Biology of sex differences

Saha S, Patil S, Singh U, Singh O, Singru PS.
PMID: 26557978
Biol Sex Differ. 2015 Nov 09;6:23. doi: 10.1186/s13293-015-0042-x. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Dopamine (DA) neurons in the anteroventral periventricular nucleus (AVPV) in the preoptic area (POA) of mammals express estrogen receptors, regulate luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion, and show distinct sexual dimorphism. In teleosts, hypophysiotropic DA neurons of the nucleus preopticus...

Molecular pathways associated with aggressiveness of papillary thyroid cancer.

Current genomics

Benvenga S, Koch CA.
PMID: 24955023
Curr Genomics. 2014 Jun;15(3):162-70. doi: 10.2174/1389202915999140404100958.

The most common thyroid malignancy is papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Mortality rates from PTC mainly depend on its aggressiveness. Geno- and phenotyping of aggressive PTC has advanced our understanding of treatment failures and of potential future therapies. Unraveling molecular...

Serum proteomic study on EGFR-TKIs target treatment for patients with NSCLC.

OncoTargets and therapy

Wu X, Liang W, Hou X, Lin Z, Zhao H, Huang Y, Fang W, Zhao Y, Wu J, Yang Y, Xue C, Hu Z, Zhang J, Zhang J, Ma Y, Zhou T, Qin T, Zhang L.
PMID: 24204163
Onco Targets Ther. 2013 Oct 21;6:1481-91. doi: 10.2147/OTT.S51887. eCollection 2013.

BACKGROUND: Although epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are widely used for EGFR mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, tumor sample availability and heterogeneity of the tumor remain challenging for physicians' selection of these patients. Here, we...

EGFR-TKI resistance in NSCLC patients: mechanisms and strategies.

American journal of cancer research

Lin Y, Wang X, Jin H.
PMID: 25232485
Am J Cancer Res. 2014 Sep 06;4(5):411-35. eCollection 2014.

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a kind of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) that plays a critical role in the initiation and development of malignant tumors via modulating downstream signaling pathways. In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the...

Imbalance of the Nerve Growth Factor and Its Precursor: Implication in Diabetic Retinopathy.

Journal of clinical & experimental ophthalmology

Mohamed R, El-Remessy AB.
PMID: 26807305
J Clin Exp Ophthalmol. 2015 Oct;6(5). doi: 10.4172/2155-9570.1000483. Epub 2015 Oct 25.

Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness in working age in US and worldwide. Neurotrophins including nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) and neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) are known to be essential for growth, differentiation and...

Treadmill exercise alleviates nigrostriatal dopaminergic loss of neurons and fibers in rotenone-induced Parkinson rats.

Journal of exercise rehabilitation

Shin MS, Kim TW, Lee JM, Ji ES, Lim BV.
PMID: 28349030
J Exerc Rehabil. 2017 Feb 28;13(1):30-35. doi: 10.12965/jer.1734906.453. eCollection 2017 Feb.

Parkinson disease is one of the common brain diseases caused by dopaminergic neuronal loss in the substantia nigra and dopaminergic fiber loss in the striatum. In the present study, the effects of treadmill exercise on motor performance, dopaminergic loss...
