T cell large granular lymphocyte (T-LGL) leukemia features a clonal expansion of antigen-primed, competent, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). To systematically understand signaling components that...

Replacing a Lectin Domain Residue in L-selectin Enhances Binding to P-selectin Glycoprotein Ligand-1 but Not to 6-Sulfo-sialyl Lewis x*

Klopocki, Arkadiusz G., Yago, Tadayuki, Mehta, Padmaja, Yang, Jun, Wu, Tao, Leppänen, Anne, ...

Selectin-ligand interactions (bonds) mediate leukocyte rolling on vascular surfaces. The molecular basis for differential ligand recognition by selectins is poorly understood. Here, we show that...

Disaggregating marketplace attitudes toward risk: a contingent-claim-based model

Edwin Neave, Jun Yang

With a view to providing economic interpretations of temporal changes in Risk-Neutral Probability Distributions (RNPDs), this article estimates RNPDs from option prices, then studies the expected...

Changes in count and function of splenic lymphocytes from patients with portal hypertension

Li, Zong-Fang, Zhang, Shu, Lv, Gao-Bo, Huang, Ying, Zhang, Wei, Ren, Song, ...

AIM: To investigate changes in numbers and proliferative function of splenic lymphocytes in patients with hypersplenism due to portal hypertension (PH), to provide evidence for further study of...

Soluble epoxide hydrolase plays an essential role in angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy

Ai, Ding, Pang, Wei, Li, Nan, Xu, Ming, Jones, Paul D., Yang, Jun, ...

Pathophysiological cardiac hypertrophy is one of the most common causes of heart failure. Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids, hydrolyzed and degraded by soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH), can function as...

CD151 Gene Delivery after Myocardial Infarction Promotes Functional Neovascularization and Activates FAK Signaling

Zuo, Houjuan, Liu, Zhengxiang, Liu, Xiaochun, Yang, Jun, Liu, Tao, Wen, Sha, ...

Our previous studies showed that tetraspanin CD151 promotes neovascularization in rat hindlimb and myocardial ischemia models. This study is to assess whether CD151 induces arteriogenesis and...

Particularistic and system trust among small and medium enterprises: A comparative study in China's transition economy

Tan, Justin, Yang, Jun, Veliyath, Rajaram

Guanxi, a type of particularistic trust observed in Confucian societies has mostly been viewed as a static phenomenon. It is not clear how the role of guanxi changes over time during institutional...

Small-Molecule Activation of p53 Blocks Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1α and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression In Vivo and Leads to Tumor Cell Apoptosis in Normoxia and Hypoxia▿

Yang, Jun, Ahmed, Afshan, Poon, Evon, Perusinghe, Nina, De Haven Brandon, Alexis, Box, Gary, ...

The p53 tumor suppressor protein negatively regulates hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α). Here, we show that induction of p53 by the small-molecule RITA (reactivation of p53 and induction of...

Issues related to targeted delivery of proteins and peptides

Lu, Yingjuan, Yang, Jun, Sega, Emanuela

While modern genomic and proteomic technology enables rapid screening of novel proteins and peptides as potential drug candidates, design of delivery systems for these biologics remains challenging...

Neuronostatin Encoded by the Somatostatin Gene Regulates Neuronal, Cardiovascular, and Metabolic Functions*S⃞

Samson, Willis K., Zhang, Jian V., Avsian-Kretchmer, Orna, Cui, Kai, Yosten, Gina L. C., Klein, Cindy, ...

Somatostatin is important in the regulation of diverse neuroendocrine functions. Based on bioinformatic analyses of evolutionarily conserved sequences, we predicted another peptide hormone in...

Default Risk, Idiosyncratic Coskewness and Equity Returns

Chabi-Yo, Fousseni, Yang, Jun

In this paper, we intend to explain an empirical finding that distressed stocks delivered anomalously low returns. We show that in a model with heterogeneous investors where idiosyncratic skewness is...
