Pre-treatment tumor expression of PD-L1 has been shown to correlate with favorable clinical outcomes following PD-1 blocking therapies. However, the majority of patients with PD-L1+ tumors do not respond to treatment. With the goal of obtaining insights into the mechanisms underlying the response to...
BACKGROUND: The introduction of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) testing as part of primary cervical screening is anticipated to improve sensitivity, but also the number of women who will screen positive. Reflex cytology is the preferred triage test in most settings but ha...
Df16(A)+/- mice line is a model of human 22q11 microdeletion syndrome. We conducted an unbiased evaluation of the transcriptional difference in the prefrontal cortex between mutant and wild type animals at exon level. These mice were generated by chromosomal engineering and carry a microdeltion of ~...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: The cause of Crohn's disease (CD) is unknown, but the current hypothesis is that microbial or environmental factors induce gut inflammation in genetically susceptible individuals, leading to chronic intestinal inflammation. Case-control studies of patients...
Millions of ribosomes are packed within mammalian cells, yet we lack tools to visualize them in toto and characterize their subcellular composition. Here, we present ribosome expansion microscopy (RiboExM) to visualize individual ribosomes and an optogenetic proximity-labeling technique (ALIBi) to p...
We have employed a scRANSeq to study the difference between WT and Fip200-deficient B cell populations from mice spleen 11 days after immunization. FIP200 plays an important role in regulating LC3-dependent and LC3-independent autophage pathway, which is crucial for B cell development and differenti...
