PURPOSE Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is a hypoxia-inducible enzyme, which is associated with neoplastic growth. Ectopic CA IX expression has been observed in several tumors, whose normal counterparts do not express this enzyme. Normal human brain tissue shows only slight or no expression of CA IX. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We describe CA IX expression in human diffusely infiltrating astrocytomas. ...

This manuscript concerns two definite integrals that could be connected to the Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac functions in integrands, separately, with numerators slightly modified a difference expressions contain Fourier kernel multiplied by polynomial its complex conjugate. In this work, we use our contour integral method derive these integrals, which are given ∫0∞ie−imx(log(a)−ix)k−eimx(log(a...

A method for specific removal of large amounts of factor IX:C alloantibodies by a resin to which highly purified factor IX was linked (factor IX CH-Sepharose) is described. Factor IX was isolated from human plasma by a three-step procedure, including barium citrate adsorption and elution, DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B chromatography, and dextran sulfate agarose chromatography. Approximately 100 mg facto...

The pericentriolar endocytic recycling compartment (ERC) is involved in receptor and lipid recycling as well as in the delivery of internalized cargo from early endosomes to the trans Golgi network (TGN). We show that synaptotagmin (Syt) IX, a member of the Syt family of proteins, localizes to the ERC and is required for export from the ERC to the cell surface. We demonstrate that rat basophili...

only DESCRIPTION Coagulation Factor IX (Human), Mononine, is a sterile, stable, lyophilized concentrate of Factor IX prepared from pooled human plasma and is intended for use in therapy of Factor IX deficiency, known as Hemophilia B or Christmas disease. Mononine is purified of extraneous plasma-derived proteins, including Factors II, VII and X, by use of immunoaffinity chromatography. A murine...

PURPOSE Human blood contains low levels of protoporphyrin IX (PP IX), a photoactive compound that produces reactive oxygen species when exposed to light. It has been proposed that photoactivation of PP IX and subsequent generation of potentially tissue-damaging reactive oxygen may be a mechanism of retinal injury in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). The purpose of this study is to determine an ...
