Identifying the molecular basis for genotype-phenotype correlations in human diseases has direct implications for understanding the disease process and hence for the identification of potential therapeutic targets. To this end, we performed microarray expression analysis on benign (pheochromocytomas) and malignant (medullary thyroid carcinomas, MTCs) tumors from patients with multiple endocrine...

We previously demonstrated that an adenovirus-based foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) serotype A24 capsid subunit vaccine, Ad5-A24, expressed under the control of a cytomegalovirus promoter (CMV) can protect swine and bovines against homologous challenge, but in a similar approach using swine vaccinated with an Ad5-vectored FMDV O1 Campos vaccine, Ad5-O1C, the animals were only partially prot...

In this study, the major pheromone component, 3-hydroxy-2-butanone (3H-2B), released by dominants was measured during early scotophase. Both the JH III titer in the hemolymph and the 3H-2B content of the sternal glands of the dominants and subordinates were then measured during late scotophase and late photophase. These investigations were performed on encounter days 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, and 2...
