Effects of genetic variations in the dystonia protein torsinA: identification of polymorphism at residue 216 as protein modifier (2006)

Kock, Norman, Naismith, Teresa V., Boston, Heather E., Ozelius, Laurie J., Corey, David P., Breakefield, Xandra O., ...

Four naturally occurring sequence variations have been found in the coding region of the DYT1 gene encoding torsinA. One of these, a 3 bp (ΔGAG) deletion, underlies dominantly inherited cases...

Production of monokines in patients under polysulphone haemodiafiltration is influenced by the ultrafiltration flow rate (2001)

Müller-Steinhardt, Michael, Kock, Norman, Härtel, Christoph, Kirchner, Holger, Steinhoff, Jürgen

Background. Chronic haemodialysis patients show various clinical signs of immunodeficiency and there is growing evidence that a dysregulated monocyte cytokine production is heavily involved in this...

Evidence That Paternal Expression of the ε-Sarcoglycan Gene Accounts for Reduced Penetrance in Myoclonus-Dystonia

Müller, Birgitt, Hedrich, Katja, Kock, Norman, Dragasevic, Natasa, Svetel, Marina, Garrels, Jennifer, ...

Myoclonus-dystonia (M-D) is a movement disorder characterized by rapid muscle contractions and sustained twisting and repetitive movements and has recently been associated with mutations in the...

Tumor Therapy Mediated by Lentiviral Expression of shBcl-2 and S-TRAIL1

Kock, Norman, Kasmieh, Randa, Weissleder, Ralph, Shah, Khalid

Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) can selectively kill tumor cells and, in combination with other agents, could enhance tumor therapy. We explored the combined...
