Located on chromosome 8q24.2, the prostate stem cell antigen (P...

Bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate (BMP) is synthesized from exogenous phosphatidylglycerol (PG) by macrophages (Cochran, F. R., Roddick, V. L., Connor, J. R., Thornburg, J. T., and Waite, M. (1987) J. Immunol. 138, 1877-1883). Previous work from our laboratory showed that arachidonic acid in BMP was released by the macrophages upon challenge of the cells with PMA (Cochran, F. R., Connor, J. R., Rod...

PROC SQL is SAS’ implementation of the ANSI Standard Query Language (SQL), an ANSI standard database programming/query language. Syntax is simple and its utility is broad in scope. As another capability, we find that PROC SQL is a very useful tool to perform exact test for monotonic trend in mean responses of discrete random variables. In this paper, we show utilization of PROC SQL to construct...

In the June 1, 1991 issue of Blood, Cochran et all found that the primary pathway for initial uptake of AI-transferrin and Fetransferrin by human fetal red cells (obtained from placentas) was through a high-affinity saturable receptor that did not distinguish between the two metallo-transferrins; that a process that followed initial uptake did distinguish between the two metallo-transferrins; a...
