The Janus face of cyclophosphamide
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cyclophosphamide, within well-defined therapeutic regimens, increases the antineoplastic effects of immunotherapy. We have recently identified multiple factors and mechanisms that underlie the paradoxical synergy between these two treatment modalities. In particular, we found that cyclophosphamide stimulates anticancer immune responses upon the perception by the immune system of inflammatory danger signals associated with the death of leukocytes, via p53 and type I interferon-related mechanisms.

Effect of Asymmetric Functionalized Graphene Oxide (Janus GO) on Young′s Modulus and Glass Transition Temperature of PSf Ultrafiltration Membrane
In this study, effect of asymmetric functionalized graphene oxide (Janus GO) on Young′s modulus and glass transition temperature of Polysulfone (PSf) ultrafiltration membranes was investigated. The membranes were prepared via phase inversion method and GO nanosheets were dispersed in casting solution by sonication. Results showed that the Normalized Young’s modulus (on the basis of neat ...
متن کاملJanus Green Dye as a New Reagent for Catalytic Kinetic Determination of Zirconium in Ceramic Materials
A new catalytic kinetic spectrophotometric procedure for determination of trace quantities of zirconium was proposed. Janus Green was oxidized by potassium bromate and zirconium catalyst which then converted to a colorless product in acidic media. Reaction rate was monitored spectrophotometrically at 606 nm. It relies on the linear relationship between the absorbance difference (ΔAt) and Zr(IV)...
متن کاملRing loss: Convex Feature Normalization for Face Recognition
We motivate and present Ring loss, a simple and elegant feature normalization approach for deep networks designed to augment standard loss functions such as Softmax. We argue that deep feature normalization is an important aspect of supervised classification problems where we require the model to represent each class in a multi-class problem equally well. The direct approach to feature normaliz...
متن کاملJAK-STAT pathway and JAK inhibitors: a primer for dermatologists
Background: All cellular events depend upon the DNA synthesis and gene expression involving complex interplay between ligands such as interleukins and interferons, with various cell membrane receptors. These ligand-receptors interactions transmit signals within the cell via numerous signal transduction pathways to affect gene expression. Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcrip...
