Evidence for Common Clonal Origin of Multifocal Lung Cancers (2009)

Wang, Xiaoyan, Wang, Mingsheng, MacLennan, Gregory T., Abdul-Karim, Fadi W., Eble, John N., Jones, Timothy D., ...

Background Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer death in the United States. Multiple anatomically separate but histologically similar lung tumors are often found in the same patient. The...

Characterization of human brain nicotinamide 5'-mononucleotide adenylyltransferase-2 and expression in human pancreas.

Yalowitz, Joel A, Xiao, Suhong, Biju, Mangatt P, Antony, Aśok C, Cummings, Oscar W, Deeg, Mark A, ...

NMNAT (nicotinamide 5'-mononucleotide adenylyltransferase; EC 2.7.7.1) catalyses the transfer of the adenylyl group from ATP to NMN to form NAD. We have cloned a novel human NMNAT cDNA, designated...

KIT Mutations Are Common in Testicular Seminomas

Kemmer, Kathleen, Corless, Christopher L., Fletcher, Jonathan A., McGreevey, Laura, Haley, Andrea, Griffith, Diana, ...

Expression of KIT tyrosine kinase is critical for normal germ cell development and is observed in the majority of seminomas. Activating mutations in KIT are common in gastrointestinal stromal tumors...

Identical Allelic Losses in Mature Teratoma and Other Histologic Components of Malignant Mixed Germ Cell Tumors of the Testis

Kernek, Kevin M., Ulbright, Thomas M., Zhang, Shaobo, Billings, Steven D., Cummings, Oscar W., Henley, John D., ...

Teratomas of the testis in post-pubertal patients are histologically diverse tumors that often coexist with other types of germ cell tumors. Using laser capture microdissection and loss of...

IL-17–dependent cellular immunity to collagen type V predisposes to obliterative bronchiolitis in human lung transplants

Burlingham, William J., Love, Robert B., Jankowska-Gan, Ewa, Haynes, Lynn D., Xu, Qingyong, Bobadilla, Joseph L., ...

Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), a process of fibro-obliterative occlusion of the small airways in the transplanted lung, is the most common cause of lung transplant failure. We tested the...

Th-17, Monokines, Collagen Type V, and Primary Graft Dysfunction in Lung Transplantation

Bobadilla, Joseph L., Love, Robert B., Jankowska-Gan, Ewa, Xu, Qingyong, Haynes, Lynn D., Braun, Ruedi K., ...

Rationale: The pathogenesis of primary graft dysfunction (PGD), a serious complication of lung transplantation, is poorly understood. Human studies and rodent models have shown that collagen type V...

Ligation-assisted endoscopic mucosal resection of gastric heterotopic pancreas

Khashab, Mouen A, Cummings, Oscar W, DeWitt, John M

Heterotopic pancreas is a congenital anomaly characterized by ectopic pancreatic tissue. Treatment of heterotopic pancreas may include expectant observation, endoscopic resection or surgery. The aim...

Reinterpretation of histology of proximal colon polyps called hyperplastic in 2001

Khalid, Omer, Radaideh, Sofyan, Cummings, Oscar W, O’Brien, Michael J, Goldblum, John R, Rex, Douglas K

AIM: To evaluate how proximal colon polyps interpreted as hyperplastic polyps in 2001 would be interpreted by expert pathologists in 2007.
