Eye cancer: unique insights into oncogenesis: the Cogan Lecture.
The major objective of this lecture is to illustrate how eye cancer research has dramatically affected not only patients with these ocular tumors, but also our fundamental understanding of cancer biology and many other aspects of biomedical research. Retinoblastoma and uveal melanoma, the two most common eye cancers in children and adults, respectively, are very different clinically and biologi...
متن کاملInsights into HLA-G Genetics Provided by Worldwide Haplotype Diversity
Human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G) belongs to the family of non-classical HLA class I genes, located within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). HLA-G has been the target of most recent research regarding the function of class I non-classical genes. The main features that distinguish HLA-G from classical class I genes are (a) limited protein variability, (b) alternative splicing generatin...
متن کاملPITs and FOXes in ocular genetics: the Cogan lecture.
The overall goal of the research in my laboratory is to gain better understanding of the molecular biology of the anterior segment and, in particular, to identify genes that regulate the development and function of this tissue. We have concentrated on discovering and characterizing the genes that, when mutated, cause anterior segment dysgenesis (ASD). ASD encompasses a spectrum of inherited aut...
متن کاملClinical and Mechanistic Insights Into the Genetics of Cardiomyopathy.
Over the last quarter-century, there has been tremendous progress in genetics research that has defined molecular causes for cardiomyopathies. More than a thousand mutations have been identified in many genes with varying ontologies, therein indicating the diverse molecules and pathways that cause hypertrophic, dilated, restrictive, and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathies. Translation of this resea...
متن کاملInsights into lantibiotic immunity provided by
22 The lantibiotic lacticin 3147 has been the focus of much research due to its broad spectrum of 23 activity against many microbial targets, including drug resistant pathogens. In order to protect 24 itself, a lacticin 3147 producer must possess a cognate immunity mechanism. Lacticin 3147 25 immunity is provided by an ABC transporter, LtnFE, and a dedicated immunity protein, LtnI, 26 both of w...
