objective(s): the aim of this study was to investigate the methylation status and mrna expression levels of p15, death-associated protein kinase (dapk), and suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (socs1) genes in multiple myeloma (mm). materials and methods: the bone marrow samples of 54 mm patients were collected and the methylation status of the p15, dapk, and socs1 gene promoter regions was dete...

conclusions some results of the correlation coefficients are not the same with visualization. the reason may be due to the small number of data. materials and methods in the foundation-application study, we constructed two-way gene networks using nonparametric methods, such as spearman’s rank correlation coefficient and blomqvist’s measure, and compared them with pearson’s correlation coefficie...

Helicobacter pylori is a major human pathogen that infects the stomach and produces inflammation that is responsible for various gastroduodenal diseases. Despite the high prevalence of H. pylori infections in Africa and South Asia, the incidence of gastric cancer in these areas is much lower than in other countries. The incidence of gastric cancer also tends to decrease from north to south in E...

Bispecific antibodies, which simultaneously target CD3 on T cells and tumor-associated antigens to recruit cytotoxic T cells to cancer cells, are a promising new approach to the treatment of hormone-refractory prostate cancer. Here we report a site-specific, semisynthetic method for the production of bispecific antibody-like therapeutics in which a derivative of the prostate-specific membrane a...
