Danger ahead: watch out for indirect comparisons!
We have entered an exciting new era of anticoagulation— with multiple new oral anticoagulants becoming available for use as potential replacements for warfarin, the vitamin K antagonist that has been the only oral agent available for 50 years! The most prominent of the indications for anticoagulation is for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation, where long-term, often life-long...
متن کاملStoichiometric controls of mercury dilution by growth.
Rapid growth could significantly reduce methylmercury (MeHg) concentrations in aquatic organisms by causing a greater than proportional gain in biomass relative to MeHg (somatic growth dilution). We hypothesized that rapid growth from the consumption of high-quality algae, defined by algal nutrient stoichiometry, reduces MeHg concentrations in zooplankton, a major source of MeHg for lake fish. ...
متن کاملMdm2 pulls the plug on glycolysis
C ancer cells have long been known to have higher rates of glycolysis than normal cells, a phenomenon named the Warburg effect after its discoverer Otto Warburg (1). Enhanced glycolysis is thought to allow cancer cells to survive the hypoxic conditions they experience in the center of solid tumors. But Mikawa et al. reveal how damaged cells switch off glycolysis as they enter senescence and sho...
متن کاملGalectin-1 Pulls the Strings on VEGFR2
Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) cancer immunotherapy targets angiogenesis but development of resistance in patients is common. In this issue of Cell, Croci et al. identify a complex set of mechanisms by which galectin-1 prolongs cell-surface retention of VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2) and stimulates VEGF-independent tumor angiogenesis.
متن کاملEndocytosis pulls Notch apart
N otch's neighbors are tearing it apart. On page 445, Nichols et al. show that endocytosis of a ligand on one cell pulls apart its Notch receptor on an adjacent cell, leaving behind an activation-susceptible receptor remnant. Dormant Notch on the cell surface must be cleaved into a free intra-cellular domain that can travel to the nucleus to activate gene expression. Three proteases are known t...
