Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer related deaths accounting for more deaths than breast, colon and prostate cancers combined. The Rb-p16 regulatory pathway plays an essential role in tumor suppression in the lung epithelium. This is evidenced by the nearly universal alterations in Rb-p16 pathway components in ... | [

The frontal lobe is the largest lobe of the brain, and it is thus commonly involved in stroke. Moreover, almost one in five strokes is limited to the prerolandic areas. This high frequency of anatomical involvement is in sharp contrast with the apparent rarity of clinical frontal dysfunction in stroke. It is remarkable... | [

Cytosine arabinoside (ara-C) is widely used for the treatment of leukemias and displays significant toxicities. Lovastatin, an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, is extensively used to treat hypercholesterolemia.

Although the etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) remains enigmatic, the role of T cells is unquestionably central in this pathology. Immune cells respond to pathogens and danger signals via pattern-recognition receptors (PRR). Several reports implicate Nlrp12, an intracellular PRR, in the development of a mouse MS-like... | [

Background/Aims: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multifactorial disease that is associated with inflammation in joints. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory activity and mechanism of morin on human osteoarthritis chondrocytes stimulated by IL-1β.

This paper examines the potential impact of changes in medical care on changing population health in Lithuania, Hungary and Romania, with west Germany included for comparison. We used the concept of deaths from certain causes that should not occur in the presence of timely and effective health care (amenable mortality)... | [

The Women's Interagency HIV Study comprises the largest U.S. cohort to date of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-seropositive women (N = 2,058) with a comparison cohort of seronegative women (N = 568). The methodology, training, and quality assurance activities employed are described. The study pop | [

Preconception care (PCC) and strict periconceptional glycemic control are both used to minimize the risk of congenital birth defects in offspring of women with type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). These malformations are ascribed in large measure to poor periconceptional control. This study evaluated PCC by a meta-... | [

Abstract A woman, now 59 has been followed for 13 years with several manifestations of Behcet's disease. These were aphthous stomatitis, genital ulcers, uveitis causing blindness, recurrent erythema nodosum, and synovitis. In 1970 a poorly differentiated diffuse lymphocytic lymphoma appeared and was treated with radiot... | [
