Abstract Background Infections with certain human herpesviruses have been established as risk factors for some cancer types. For example, Epstein-Barr Virus is considered a cause of Burkitt's...
Wojcicki, J.M., Newton, R., Urban, M.I., Stein, L., Hale, M., Patel, M., ...
Background: Infection with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) is the necessary causal agent in the development of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Infection with HIV-1, male gender and older age all increase risk for...
A phase II study of oral clofazimine in unresectable and metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (1998)
Ruff, P., Chasen, M. R., Long, J. E. H.
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma is highly refractory to most chemotherapeutic agents. Clofazimine, a riminophenazine compound used to treat leprosy since 1962, inhibits various cancer cell...
Cloning of human erythroid dematin reveals another member of the villin family.
Rana, A P, Ruff, P, Maalouf, G J, Speicher, D W, Chishti, A H
Dematin is an actin-bundling protein originally identified in the human erythroid membrane skeleton. Its actin-bundling activity is abolished upon phosphorylation by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase...
Ruff, P, Speicher, D W, Husain-Chishti, A
The complete amino acid sequence of a 55-kDa erythrocyte membrane protein was deduced from cDNA clones isolated from a human reticulocyte library. This protein, p55, is copurified during the...
cDNA sequence for human erythrocyte ankyrin.
Lambert, S, Yu, H, Prchal, J T, Lawler, J, Ruff, P, Speicher, D, ...
The cDNA for human erythrocyte ankyrin has been isolated from a series of overlapping clones obtained from a reticulocyte cDNA library. The composite cDNA sequence has a large open reading frame of...

A case-control study of 913 black cancer patients (aged 15-50 years) was undertaken to measure the association between human immunodeficiency (HIV) infection and cancers believed to have an infective...
Risk factors for oesophageal, lung, oral and laryngeal cancers in black South Africans
Pacella-Norman, R, Urban, M I, Sitas, F, Carrara, H, Sur, R, Hale, M, ...
The authors used data collected from 1995 to 1999, from an on-going cancer case–control study in greater Johannesburg, to estimate the importance of tobacco and alcohol consumption and other...

Effects of tobacco smoking on cancer and cardiovascular disease in urban black South Africans
Stein, L, Urban, M I, Weber, M, Ruff, P, Hale, M, Donde, B, ...
Demographic and lifestyle information from 9690 black patients diagnosed with cancer or cardiovascular disease was collected in an ongoing case–control study in Johannesburg, South Africa. Compared...
