Exploiting mesothelin in thymic carcinoma as a drug delivery target for anetumab ravtansine
Thymic epithelial tumours (TETs) are rare tumours comprised of thymomas and thymic carcinoma. Novel therapies are needed, especially in thymic carcinoma where the 5-year survival rate hovers at 30%. Mesothelin...

Mutant GTF2I induces cell transformation and metabolic alterations in thymic epithelial cells
The pathogenesis of thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) is poorly understood. Recently we reported the frequent occurrence of a missense mutation in the GTF2I gene in TETs and hypothesized that GTF2I mutation might c...

Complete genome sequence of a novel reassortant H3N3 avian influenza virus
Aquatic birds are known to be a reservoir for the most common influenza A viruses (IAVs). In the annual surveillance program, we collected the feces of migratory birds for the detection of IAVs in South Korea ...

Acquired SETD2 mutation and impaired CREB1 activation confer cisplatin resistance in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer
Resistance to chemotherapy remains a critical barrier to effective cancer treatment. Although cisplatin is one of the most commonly used chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (...

Open AccessInhibition of AKT1 signaling promotes invasion and metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer cells with K-RAS or EGFR mutations
Accumulating evidence supports a role of the PI3K-AKT pathway in the regulation of cell motility, invasion and metastasis. AKT activation is known to promote metastasis, however under certain circumstances, it...

A specific missense mutation in GTF2I occurs at high frequency in thymic epithelial tumors
Giuseppe Giaccone and colleagues identify a recurrent missense mutation in GTF2I in a high percentage of thymic epithelial tumors. The mutation occurs more commonly in type A and AB thymomas and is associated wit...

Roll-Bonded Tri-Layered Mg/Al/Stainless Steel Clad Composites and their Deformation and Fracture Behavior
The deformation and fracture behaviors of roll-bonded tri-layered Mg/Al/stainless steel (SST) composite plates were studied. Brittle interfacial reaction compounds were observed at the Mg/Al interface upon ann...

Involvement of superoxide radical in the impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation of cavernous smooth muscle in hypercholesterolemic rabbits
Involvement of the superoxide radical in impaired relaxation of penile cavernous smooth muscle in hypercholesterolemia was investigated. New Zealand White rabbits (n = 40) were randomly divided into control and t...

Bioconversion of hydrogen sulfide by free and immobilized cells ofChlorobium thiosulfatophilum
The transformation of hydrogen sulfide into elementary sulfur and sulfate was investigated in a photo-bioreactor using autotropic bacteriaChlorobium thiosulfatophilum. The accumulations of sulfur and sulfate in t...
