Oligodendroglial tumors form a distinct subgroup of gliomas, characterized by a better response to treatment and prolonged overall survival. Most oligodendrogliomas and also some oligoastrocytomas are characterized by a unique and typical unbalanced translocation, der(1,19), resulting in a 1p/19q co-deletion. Candidate tumor suppressor genes targeted by these losses, CIC on 19q13.2 and FUBP1 on...

To evaluate the prognostic significance of the altered expression of capicua transcriptional repressor (CIC) in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant oligodendroglial tumors, a cohort of 54 IDH-mutant oligodendroglial tumors (designated as the Xijing cohort) were examined by immunohistochemistry (IHC), and two public expression data sets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA; n=265) and the Gene E...

The central nucleus of the inferior colliculus (ICC) receives direct inputs, bilaterally, from all auditory brain stem nuclear groups. To evaluate the contribution made to gerbil ICC neuron physiology by two major afferent pathways, we examined the synaptic responses evoked by direct stimulation of the commissure of the inferior colliculus (CIC) and the ipsilateral lateral lemniscus (LL). Front...

OBJECTIVE The present study evaluated the presence of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides antibodies (anti-CCP), rheumatoid factor (RF), and circulating immune complexes (CIC) in Sudanese patients infected with the Leishmania donovani parasite. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sera were collected from Leishmania infected patients (n = 116) and healthy Sudanese (n = 93). Nineteen Sudanese anti-CCP+ RA pati...

BACKGROUND Few clinical trials in chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) patients have evaluated abdominal symptom severity and whether CIC patients with abdominal symptoms respond similarly to patients with limited abdominal symptoms. AIMS To examine abdominal symptom severity and relationships between symptoms and global measures at baseline; compare linaclotide's effect on symptoms in subpo...
