Many injectable drugs require delivery strategies for enhancing their pharmacokinetics due to rapid loss via renal filtration if possess low molecular weight (<60-70 kDa) and/or clearance by the body's components (e.g., proteases, antibodies, high-efficiency receptors) in their native form.
The human granulocyte alloantigen NB1, recently clustered as CD177, is heterogenously expressed on neutrophils of 88-97% of healthy individuals. Since its molecular nature has remained unknown, we isolated NB1 glycoprotein from granulocyte lysate by immunoaffinity chromatography. MALDI-TOF mass
G6PC3 is a widely expressed isoform of glucose-6-phosphatase, found in many foetal and adult tissues. Mutations in this gene cause developmental abnormalities and severe neutropenia due to abolition of glucose recycling between the cytoplasm and endoplasmic reticulum. Low G6PC3 expression as a
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and prognostic factors of gemcitabine (GEM) concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
METHODS
Between January 2002 and December 2005, 55 patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer treated with GEM (400
The majority of women diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer will have persistent or recurrent disease after initial treatment. We evaluated response and toxicity in women with advanced stage disease given salvage paclitaxel as a low-dose, weekly infusion. We performed a retrospective review of 22
Inherited metabolic diseases are pathologic conditions that generally develop as a result of impairment of the production or breakdown of protein, carbohydrate, and fatty acids. Early determination of hematological findings has a positive effect on the prognosis of metabolic diseases. Three hundred
GSD type 1b is an autosomal recessive inborn error of carbohydrate metabolism caused by defects of the G6Pase translocase (G6PT). Patients with GSD1b have severe hypoglycemia with several clinical manifestations of hepatomegaly, obesity, a doll-like face, and neutropenia. LT has been indicated for
Neutrophil-specific alloantibodies and the antigens they recognize are important in clinical medicine but little is known about the structure of these antigens. Alloimmunization to the antigen NB1 is a clinically important cause of neonatal neutropenia and leukocyte-mediated transfusion reactions. A
Proper engagement of leukocyte and endothelial cell selectins with their counterreceptors is an initial step in neutrophil trafficking to sites of inflammation. Certain fucosylated carbohydrate determinants such as sialyl Lewis-x are proposed to act as these counterreceptors. We studied the effects
Nine patients with anorexia nervosa were studied, who had varying degrees of bone marrow failure ranging from a slight neutropenia to severe pancytopenia. In addition to routine laboratory work bone marrow biopsies were performed at admission and during the course of disease. In four of those
Colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) are glycoprotein growth factors that influence the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor cells. Among CFSs granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is thought to be major stimulator of production of human neutrophilic granulocyte. G-CSF
Parasitic worms of the genus Schistosoma excrete relatively large amounts of immunogenic glycoproteins (circulating cathodic antigen [CCA]) that contain polysaccharide side chains with the trisaccharide Lewis-x (L(ex)) as a repeating unit. These carbohydrates evoke high titers of specific IgM
Blastoschizomyces capitatus is a rare fungal pathogen that may lead to severe and fatal systemic infections especially in immunosuppressive individuals. B.capitatus strains have also been reported as the cause of hospital-acquired infections and outbreaks. In this report, three fungemia cases caused
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of the retrospective analysis is to elucidate the treatment efficacy and toxicity as well as to identify prognostic factors in Japanese patients with advanced pancreatic cancer treated with gemcitabine.
METHODS
Two hundred and sixty-four patients with pathologically confirmed
