OBJECTIVE
Exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common cause for a severe central visual loss. The complement system has been implicated in the pathogenesis of drusen. Recently, a complement factor H (CFH) polymorphism, which is characterized by a tyrosine (Y)-to-histidine (H)
Lower levels of tryptophan (TRP) have been identified in people with inflammatory bowel disease and in dogs with protein-losing enteropathy (PLE). No data on serum amino acids (AAs) but some on plasma in canine immunosuppressant-responsive enteropathy (IRE) are available. The aim of A subpopulation of the pig inferior mesenteric ganglia (IMG) neurons projecting to the colon exhibit calbindin-like immunoreactivity. It is not known if there are any changes in the chemical coding patterns of these neurons during porcine proliferative enteropathy (PE). To answer this question,
The expression of surface procoagulants by exudative macrophages represents an important mechanism underlying local fibrin deposition at sites of extravascular inflammation. The present studies investigated the contribution of tyrosine phosphorylation to the generation of macrophage procoagulant
Proteinuria in dogs with kidney disease can contribute to protein-energy wasting and malnutrition. Little is known about amino acid (AA) status in dogs with protein-losing nephropathy (PLN).The purpose of our study was to further elucidate AA status in PLN STK, a new member of the hepatocyte growth factor receptor family, is the receptor for macrophage-stimulating protein (MSP), which acts on murine resident peritoneal macrophages. We established polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies against STK and characterized the structure of STK protein and STK
Angiogenesis is a common factor in the pathogenesis of cancer and in exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Therefore, angiogenesis inhibition has been developed as a therapeutic strategy. We report 2 cases of recurrent exudative AMD in which oral sorafenib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor
Twenty-six Japanese cases of type II enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL) were examined. Multiple tumors throughout the small intestine were found in 15 patients (58%) and duodenal and colonic mucosal lesions in 8 and 6 cases, respectively. Histologically, intramucosal tumor spread and a
BACKGROUND
Complement factor H (CFH) polymorphism Y402H has been shown to be significantly associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Furthermore, histopathological studies in AMD have implicated basal laminar deposits (BLD) in the development of choroidal neovascularization (CNV)
Clinical interest into the function of tuft cells in human intestine has increased in recent years. However, no quantitative study has examined intestinal tuft cells in pathological specimens from patients. This study quantified tuft cell density by using a recently identified marker, specific for
The ER is hub for protein folding. Proteins that harbor a Frizzled cysteine-rich domain (FZ-CRD) possess 10 conserved cysteine motifs held by a unique disulfide bridge pattern which attains a correct fold in the ER. Little is known about implications of disease-causing missense mutations within

Dasatinib is a potent tyrosine-kinase inhibitor which is used for chronic myeloid leukemia treatment. Pleural effusion is a frequent side effect in patients during dasatinib treatment. Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a rare and life-threatening adverse event of dasatinib. The The inflammatory cytokine, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), plays a central role in human growth and development, and vascular maintenance. VEGF mediated angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth, as well as exudative age-related macular degeneration, proliferative diabetic retinopathy
