MicroRNA mir-146a expression in oral cancer tissues [abstract]
(2010)
Recent advances in basic research have shown that the expression and function of microRNAs impact on gene expression regulation networks extensively. Ever increasing new knowledge from microRNA studies should be translated ...
Orthopaedic trauma and an aging population : a retrospective review of factors influencing outcomes [abstract]
(2010)
Orthopaedic trauma outcomes are largely dependent upon mechanism of injury. However, elderly patients often sustain lower energy trauma, but have worse outcomes. Studies have shown that elderly patients are more likely to ...
Clinical translation of a novel cancer nanothereapeutic agent : bench to bedside from a small company perspective [abstract]
(2010-10)
Nanoparticles of gold are inherently multifunctional in their diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities. 198Au, provides a desirable beta energy emission and half-life for effective destruction of tumor cells/ tissue(?max = ...
AccrualMaster : software for planning and monitoring accrual rates in clinical trials [abstract]
(2010-10)
The most common reason why clinical trials fail is that they fall well below their goals for patient accrual. Researchers will frequently overpromise and underdeliver on the number of patients that they can recruit during ...
Mechanism-based Inhibitor of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Rescues Brain from Focal Cerebral Ischemia-induced Damage and Improve Neurological Outcomes in Mice [abstract]
(2010-02)
Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the US and the primary cause of long-term disability. Acute ischemic stroke, the most common form of stroke, is caused by clotting in the cerebral arteries leading to brain ...
Quantitative Profiling of S-Nitrosylated Proteins in Parkinson's Disease Paradigms for the Effects of Botanical Phenolics [abstract]
(2010-02)
A convergent feature for most aging-related neurological diseases, such as Parkinson's Disease (PD), is excessive generation of free radicals - reactive nitrogen and oxygen species, which can contribute to neuronal cell ...
Comparative oncology and clinical translation of glyco protein conjugated gold nano therapeutic agent (GA-198AuNP) [abstract]
(2010)
As part of our efforts toward clinical translation of GA-198AuNP, our studies are focused on therapeutic efficacy of nanoparticulate GA198AuNP agent in dogs with prostatic carcinoma. The overall goal is to gain clinical ...
UMKC Center of Excellence in the Study of Dental and Musculoskeletal Tissues (CEMT) [abstract]
(2010-03)
Diseases of mineralized tissues such as bone and teeth or of the muscles that control bone movement result in significant health costs in terms of suffering, loss of work and productivity, and even death. There is a ...
A Single Antibody based ELISA for the N-terminal sequence of BAG-75, a New Biomarker for Bone Formation [abstract]
(2010)
Bone acidic glycoprotein-75 (BAG-75) is a secreted product of osteoblastic cells localized predominantly to areas of new bone formation. We have identified the N-terminal sequence of BAG-75 as LPVARYQNTEEEE and shown that ...
Geographic distribution of Show Me Healthy Women providers and breast cancer incidence and mortality in Missouri counties [abstract]
(2010)
Breast cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death among US women. Regular mammography is the most effective method to reduce mortality. However, uninsured women face substantial barriers to receiving regular ...
Getting over a hangover : how do wake promoting neurons in the basal forebrain affect ethanol induced sleep? [abstract]
(2010)
Hangover is a common clinical manifestation of heavy alcohol use. Sleepiness/drowsiness is a common symptom of hangover; however its neuroanatomical substrate is unknown. The basal forebrain (BF) cholinergic neurons play ...

Nebivolol, a beta adrenergic receptor antagonist blocks angiotensin II-mediated signaling in heart [abstract]
(2010)
We recently showed that Nebivolol, a [beta]-adrenergic receptor (AR) antagonist attenuates myocardial oxidative stress and promotes insulin metabolic signaling in 9 week old Zucker obese (ZO) insulin resistant rats. Here, ...
Two-stage vs. single-stage management of patients with choledocholithiasis : meta analysis of randomized controlled trials [abstract]
(2010)
Current management of choledocholithiasis involves two stage process involving ERCP and laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). An alternative single-stage laparoscopic treatment was introduced for these patients. Various ...
