Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent signaling modulates platelet function at sites of vascular injury. Here we show that thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) prevents cAMP/protein kinase A (PKA) signaling through a CD36-dependent mechanism. Prostagla...

Background. Patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) commonly have an imbalance in T helper (Th)1/Th2-type cytokines and elevated levels of CD4 + CD25 high regulatory T cells (Treg). Here, we investigated the association of circul...

Induction of endothelial cell proliferation by recombinant and microparticle-tissue factor involves β1-integrin and extracellular signal regulated kinase activation (2010)
Journal Article

Objective: Increased levels of circulating tissue factor (TF) in the form of microparticles increase the risk of thrombosis. However, any direct influence of microparticle-associated TF on vascular endothelial cell proliferation is not known. In this...

The synthesis of 1-(4-nitrobenzyl)-2-chloromethyl benzimidazole, which undergoes a nucleophilic substitution with pyridine in the absence of additional base, is reported. The key steps are the reaction of 1,2-phenylenediamine to give exclusively the... Read More about Synthesis, structure and reactivity of 1-(4-nitrobenzyl)-2-chloromethyl benzimidazole.

Exposure to acute hypoxia induces a transient DNA damage response which includes Chk1 and TLK1 (2010)
Journal Article

Severe hypoxia has been demonstrated to induce a replication arrest which is associated with decreased levels of nucleotides. Chk1 is rapidly phosphorylated in response to severe hypoxia and in turn deactivates TLK1 through phosphorylation. Loss of C...
