Targeting cell surface glucose-regulated protein 94 in gastric cancer with an anti-GRP94 human monoclonal antibody.

Gastric cancer (GC), a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, remains a significant challenge despite recent therapeutic advancements. In this study, we explore the potential of targeting cell surface glucose-regulated protein 94 (GRP94) with antibodies as a novel therapeutic approach for GC. Our comprehensive analysis of GRP94 expression across various cancer types, with a specific focus on GC, revealed a substantial overexpression of GRP94, highlighting its potential as a promising target.

Over-Expression of p190RhoGEF Regulates the Formation of Atherosclerotic Plaques in the Aorta of ApoE Mice via Macrophage Polarization.

The RhoA-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor p190RhoGEF has been implicated in the control of cell morphology, focal adhesion formation, and cell motility. Previously, we reported that p190RhoGEF is also active in various immune cells. In this study, we examined whether over-expression of p190RhoGEF could affect atherosclerotic plaque formation in mouse aortae.

Expression of a RhoA-Specific Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factor, p190RhoGEF, in Mouse Macrophages Negatively Affects M1 Polarization and Inflammatory Responses.

A RhoA-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor, p190RhoGEF, was first cloned and identified in neuronal cells. In immune cells, we first reported the role of p190RhoGEF in B cells: expression of p190RhoGEF increased after CD40 stimulation and was required for CD40-mediated B cell activation and differentiation. We also showed that over-expression of p190RhoGEF negatively affected dendritic cell function in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

Complications of fluid overload during hysteroscopic surgery: cardiomyopathy and epistaxis - A case report.

Background: Hysteroscopic surgery has been used in various gynecological fields. However, massive fluid overload can occur as a complication due to persistent infusion of media for uterine cavity distension. We present the case of a woman who developed cardiomyopathy with pulmonary edema and epistaxis during hysteroscopic surgery.

Prediction Model for Massive Transfusion in Placenta Previa during Cesarean Section.

Purpose: Recently, obstetric massive transfusion protocols have shifted toward early intervention. This study aimed to develop a prediction model for transfusion of ≥5 units of packed red blood cells (PRBCs) during cesarean section in women with placenta previa.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a cohort study including 287 women with placenta previa who delivered between September 2011 and April 2018.

Antioxidant effects of selenocysteine on replicative senescence in human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

In most clinical applications, human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are expanded in large scale before their administration. Prolonged culture in vitro results in cellular senescenceassociated phenotypes, including accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and decreased cell viabilities. Profiling of stem cell-related genes during in vitro expansion revealed that numerous canonical pathways were significantly changed.
