Dietary restriction protects against experimental cerebral malaria via leptin modulation and T cell mTORC1 suppression
Mejia, Pedro; Treviño-Villarreal, J. Humberto; Hine, Christopher; Harputlugil, Eylul; Lang, Samantha; Calay, Ediz; Rogers, Rick; Wirth, Dyann; Duraisingh, Manoj T.; Mitchell, James R. (2014)Host nutrition can affect the outcome of parasitic diseases through metabolic effects on host immunity and/or the parasite. Here we show that modulation of mouse immunometabolism through brief restriction of food intake ... -
Genetic Polymorphisms Associated with Hearing Threshold Shift in Subjects during First Encounter with Occupational Impulse Noise
Grondin, Yohann; Bortoni, Magda E.; Sepulveda, Rosalinda; Ghelfi, Elisa; Bartos, Adam; Cotanche, Douglas; Clifford, Royce E.; Rogers, Rick A. (Public Library of Science, 2015)Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is the most significant occupational health issue worldwide. We conducted a genome-wide association study to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with hearing threshold ... -
Noninfectious entry of HIV-1 into peripheral and brain macrophages mediated by the mannose receptor
Trujillo, J. R.; Rogers, Rick A.; Molina, Ramon M.; Dangond, F; McLane, Mary Frances; Essex, Myron Elmer; Brain, Joseph David (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007)Although protein receptors on the plasma membrane involved in the initial steps of productive HIV-1 infection have been well characterized, little is known about interactions between cellular carbohydrate receptors and ... -
NSAID analgesic ketorolac used perioperatively may suppress early breast cancer relapse: particular relevance to triple negative subgroup
Retsky, Michael W.; Rogers, Rick A.; Demicheli, Romano; Hrushesky, William J. M.; Gukas, Isaac; Vaidya, Jayant S.; Baum, Michael; Forget, Patrice; DeKock, Marc; Pachmann, Katharina (Springer, 2012)To explain a bimodal relapse hazard among early stage breast cancer patients treated by mastectomy we postulated that relapses within 4 years of surgery resulted from something that happened at about the time of surgery ... -
Promising development from translational or perhaps anti-translational research in breast cancer
Retsky, Michael W.; Demicheli, Romano; Hrushesky, William JM; Forget, Patrice; De Kock, Marc; Gukas, Isaac; Rogers, Rick A.; Baum, Michael; Pachmann, Katharine; Vaidya, Jayant S (Springer, 2012)Background: A great deal of the public’s money has been spent on cancer research but demonstrable benefits to patients have not been proportionate. We are a group of scientists and physicians who several decades ago were ... -
Reduction of Breast Cancer Relapses with Perioperative Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs: New Findings and a Review
Retsky, Michael W.; Demicheli, Romano; Hrushesky, William; Forget, Patrice; Kock, Marc; Gukas, Isaac; Rogers, Rick A.; Baum, Michael; Sukhatme, Vikas Pandurang; Vaidya, Jayant (Bentham Science Publishers Ltd., 2013)To explain a bimodal pattern of hazard of relapse among early stage breast cancer patients identified in multiple databases, we proposed that late relapses result from steady stochastic progressions from single dormant ...
