Characterization of a thymidylate synthase (TS)-inducible cell line: a model system for studying sensitivity to TS- and non-TS-targeted chemotherapies.
Thymidylate synthase (TS) is responsible for the de novo synthesis of thymidylate, which is required for DNA synthesis and repair and which is an important target for fluoropyrimidines such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and antifolates such as Tomudex (TDX), ZD9331, and multitargeted antifolate (MTA). To study the importance of TS expression in determining resistance to these agents, we have develo...
متن کاملComparison of thymidylate synthase (TS) protein up-regulation after exposure to TS inhibitors in normal and tumor cell lines and tissues.
Thymidylate synthase (TS) is an important target for cancer chemotherapy. However, several mechanisms of resistance to TS inhibitors have been described. One mechanism that may be relevant to short-term exposure to TS inhibitors occurs as a result of disruption of the autoregulatory loop, which allows TS to control its own translation. This disruption leads to up-regulation of TS protein and is...

New models for education dissemination have emerged with the growth of distributed systems, especially with the widespread penetration of Internet. This has made possible imparting education on a larger scale. Distance evaluation of students constitutes a crucial factor for success of Distance Education initiatives. Such large distributed systems also raise number of challenges in terms of desi...
متن کاملFine-tuning helper Ts
Lethal shock is subverted by crippling a family of G proteins in endothelial cells, according to Korhonen and colleagues on page 411. Bee stings or other allergens can cause anaphylactic shock in severely allergic individuals by triggering mast cell activation and the release of anaphylactic mediators like histamine and platelet activating factor (PAF). At high enough levels, these mediators ca...
متن کاملts for Fast Inference
Knowledge compilation speeds inference by creating tractable approximations of a knowledge base, but this advantage is lost if the approximations are too large. We show how learning concept generalizations can allow for a more compact representation of the tractable theory. We also give a general induction rule for generating such concept generalizations. Finally, we prove that unless NP E non-...
