Gauging NOTCH1 Activation in Cancer Using Immunohistochemistry
Fixed, paraffin-embedded (FPE) tissues are a potentially rich resource for studying the role of NOTCH1 in cancer and other pathologies, but tests that reliably detect activated NOTCH1 (NICD1) in FPE samples have been lacking. Here, we bridge this gap by developing an immunohistochemical (IHC) stain that detects a neoepitope created by the proteolytic cleavage event that activates NOTCH1. Follow...
متن کاملImmunohistochemistry in Cervical Cancer
Uterine cervical cancer is caused, mostly, by persistent infection with some types of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), with types 16 and 18 showing higher risk for developing the disease. Because there is no effective drug treatment, early diagnosis of cervical cancer is very important for prognosis. The objective of this paper is to review the current immunohistochemical markers used in diagnosis,...
متن کامل09-P067 Monitoring temporal and spatial Notch1 activation during pancreas specification and development using a specific cleaved Notch1 antibody
we find that that expression of claudin 5, a component of endothelial tight junctions, is dramatically down-regulated in Tal1-deficient embryos. Consistent with a defect in tight junction formation, localization of junctional components is disorganized in the Tal1-deficient endocardium. Therefore, we propose that Tal1 transcriptional targets regulate endocardial migration and tube extension thr...
متن کاملApplication of Behavioral Activation Ttreatment for Depression in Cancer Patients
Objectives: Major depression and anxiety disorders are common psychiatric disorders among cancer patients and are associated with psychosocial impairment and decreased quality of life. Depressed and anxious cancer patients also experience a more rapid progression of cancer symptoms, increased mortality, more metastasis and pain, and increased medical utilization. Although some research has expl...
متن کاملGalectin-3 supports stemness in ovarian cancer stem cells by activation of the Notch1 intracellular domain
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic disease because usually, it is lately sensed, easily acquires chemoresistance, and has a high recurrence rate. Recent studies suggest that ovarian cancer stem cells (CSCs) are involved in these malignancies. Here, we demonstrated that galectin-3 maintains ovarian CSCs by activating the Notch1 intracellular domain (NICD1). The number and size of ovar...
