The Latency-Associated Nuclear Antigen of Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Inhibits Expression of SUMO/Sentrin-Specific Peptidase 6 To Facilitate Establishment of Latency.

Only registered users can translate articles

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), which belongs to the Gammaherpesviridae, typically displays two different phases in its life cycle, the latent phase and the lytic phase. Latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA), the primary viral product during latency, has been reported to bind to

Dipeptidyl peptidases as survival factors in Ewing sarcoma family of tumors: implications for tumor biology and therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT) is a group of aggressive pediatric malignancies driven by the EWS-FLI1 fusion protein, an aberrant transcription factor up-regulating specific target genes, such as neuropeptide Y (NPY) and its Y1 and Y5 receptors (Y5Rs). Previously, we have shown that both

Systemic levels of neuropeptide Y and dipeptidyl peptidase activity in patients with Ewing sarcoma--associations with tumor phenotype and survival.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Ewing sarcoma (ES) is driven by fusion of the Ewing sarcoma breakpoint region 1 gene (EWSR1) with an E26 transformation-specific (ETS) transcription factor (EWS-ETS), most often the Friend leukemia integration 1 transcription factor (FLI1). Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is an EWS-FLI1

Role of neuropeptide Y and dipeptidyl peptidase IV in regulation of Ewing's sarcoma growth.

Ketamine and N-acetylaspartylglutamate peptidase inhibitor exert analgesia in bone cancer pain.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Not all bone cancer pain can be effectively treated with current therapies. In the present study, the effects of ip administration of alpha-2 agonists (dexmedetomidine and clonidine), N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists (MK-801 and ketamine), an N-acetylaspartylglutamate peptidase

Amino-terminal deletion mutants of the Rous sarcoma virus glycoprotein do not block signal peptide cleavage but can block intracellular transport.

Only registered users can translate articles

Protein sequence requirements for cleavage of the signal peptide from the Rous sarcoma virus glycoprotein have been investigated through the use of deletion mutagenesis. The phenotypes of these mutants have been characterized by expression of the cloned, mutated env genes in CV-1 cells using a late

A role for nuclear translocation of tripeptidyl-peptidase II in reactive oxygen species-dependent DNA damage responses.

Only registered users can translate articles

Responses to DNA damage are influenced by cellular metabolism through the continuous production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), of which most are by-products of mitochondrial respiration. ROS have a strong influence on signaling pathways during responses to DNA damage, by relatively unclear

Apical cell surface expression of rat dipeptidyl peptidase IV in transfected Madin-Darby canine kidney cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) is a type II membrane glycoprotein that is predominantly localized to the apical plasma membrane in various epithelial cells. In order to understand in more detail the biogenesis and sorting of DPPIV, the cDNA for rat DPPIV was inserted into a mammalian plasmid

Involvement of both vectorial and transcytotic pathways in the preferential apical cell surface localization of rat dipeptidyl peptidase IV in transfected LLC-PK1 cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) is a membrane glycoprotein with type II orientation. It is predominantly localized to the apical surface in epithelial cells. Previous studies (Bantles, J. P., Feracci, H. M., Shinger, B., and Hubbard, A. L. (1987) J. Cell Biol. 105, 1241-1251) using cellular

Alterations in the transport and processing of Rous sarcoma virus envelope glycoproteins mutated in the signal and anchor regions.

Only registered users can translate articles

The env gene of Rous sarcoma virus codes for two glycoproteins which are located on the surface of infectious virions. Subcloning of these coding sequences in the place of the late region of SV40 DNA has allowed the expression of a normally glycosylated, functionally active glycoprotein complex on

Hypoxia shifts activity of neuropeptide Y in Ewing sarcoma from growth-inhibitory to growth-promoting effects.

Only registered users can translate articles

Ewing sarcoma (ES) is an aggressive malignancy driven by an oncogenic fusion protein, EWS-FLI1. Neuropeptide Y (NPY), and two of its receptors, Y1R and Y5R are up-regulated by EWS-FLI1 and abundantly expressed in ES cells. Paradoxically, NPY acting via Y1R and Y5R stimulates ES cell death. Here, we

In Vivo Antitumoral Efficacy of PhAc-ALGP-Doxorubicin, an Enzyme-Activated Doxorubicin Prodrug, in Patient-Derived Soft Tissue Sarcoma Xenograft Models.

Only registered users can translate articles

Given the very limited efficacy of doxorubicin (doxo) in soft tissue sarcoma, there is a clear need for more active and less toxic treatments for this family of diseases. However, due to the rarity of these malignancies and lack of reliable preclinical models, development of new therapies has lagged

A pan-inhibitor of DASH family enzymes induces immune-mediated regression of murine sarcoma and is a potent adjuvant to dendritic cell vaccination and adoptive T-cell therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Multimodality therapy consisting of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation will fail in approximately 40% of patients with pediatric sarcomas and result in substantial long-term morbidity in those who are cured. Immunotherapeutic regimens for the treatment of solid tumors typically generate

Manipulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in cachexia: pentoxifylline suppresses the activation of 20S and 26S proteasomes in muscles from tumor-bearing rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The development of pharmacological approaches for preventing the loss of muscle proteins would be extremely valuable for cachectic patients. For example, severe wasting in cancer patients correlates with a reduced efficacy of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Pentoxifylline (PTX) is a very inexpensive

Detection and partial characterization of a chymostatin-sensitive endopeptidase in transformed fibroblasts.

Only registered users can translate articles

A chymostatin-sensitive step in the release of plasminogen activator from transformed fibroblasts has been described recently. By using synthetic peptidyl substrates, we have detected and characterized a chymostatin-sensitive peptidase activity in chicken embryo fibroblasts transformed by Rous
