Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4, CD152) and Foxp3 (forkhead box P3) are receptors present on T cells which play a critical role in the down-regulation of antigen-activated immune responses. To evaluate the potential influences of CTLA-4 and Foxp3 on cancer invasiveness, a case-control study was conducted in 86 patients treated for squamous cell laryngeal carcinoma. The abund...

INTRODUCTION Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β and interleukin (IL)-13 play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis (SSc), partly through activation of collagen production that leads to fibrosis. The aim of the present study was to determine whether TFG-β alters IL-13 production in T lymphocytes from patients with SSc from that seen in those of healthy donors. METHODS IL-13 ...

The biological activities of theaflavin (TF), theaflavin gallate (TFG) and theaflavin digallate (TFdiG) from black tea and (-)-epigallocatechin 3-gallate (EGCG) and (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC) from green tea were investigated using SV40-immortalized (33BES) and Ha-ras gene transformed (21BES) human bronchial epithelial cell lines. Growth inhibition and cell viability were measured by trypan blue...

One of"the main conditions for the development of successful NLP applications is the usability of the syntactic formalisms adopted and the degree to which they facilitate syntax-semantics integration. TAG+ formalisms show a real potential for NLP applications, due to their linguistic descriptive capabilities. However, both the standard formalisms and parsing strategies are often quite complex a...
