The progression of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) to blast crisis is supported by self-renewing leukemic stem cells. In normal mouse hematopoietic cells, the process self-renewal involves beta-catenin-signaling pathway. We investigated whether cells in CML also use beta-catenin pathway for self-renewal.We used fluorescence-activated cell sorting isolate common myeloid progenitors, granulocyte-macrophage and megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors from marrow during several phases marrow....
Although the development of persistent opioid use after surgical procedures has garnered much attention in recent years, large-scale studies characterizing patterns among patients undergoing plastic and reconstructive surgery are lacking. To assess prevalence immediate long-term postoperative procedures. In this population-based cohort study, who underwent 5 classes (nasal, eye, breast, abdomen, soft tissue reconstruction) between January 1, 2007, December 31, 2015, were identified using IBM...
Background Large language models including GPT-4 (OpenAI) have opened new avenues in health care and qualitative research. Traditional methods are time-consuming require expertise to capture nuance. Although large demonstrated enhanced contextual understanding inferencing compared with traditional natural processing, their performance analysis versus that of humans remains unexplored. Objective We evaluated the effectiveness human researchers interviews patients adult-acquired buried penis...

Despite the widespread utilization of immunotherapy, poor clinical response by immune-suppressive tumors is an emerging challenge in use current immune checkpoint inhibitors. Recent research has revealed that CD73, or Ecto-5′-nucleotidase, enzyme overexpressed many cancers, and works concert with CD39 to produce immunosuppressive extracellular adenosine, subsequently inhibiting CD8+ T cell responses. Our multi-omics analysis identified CD73 OTUD4, a deubiquitinase stabilizes counteracting...

Abstract Despite the large comorbidity between PTSD and opioid use disorders, as well common treatment of physical injuries resulting from trauma with opioids, ability treatments to subsequently modify PTSD-related behavior has not been studied. Using stress-enhanced fear learning (SEFL) model for PTSD, we characterized impact chronic regimens on sensitization seen following traumatic stress in mice. We demonstrate first time that pretreatment is able robustly augment associative learning....
Bladder cancer surveillance is associated with high costs and patient burden. CxMonitor (CxM), a home urine test, allows patients to skip their scheduled cystoscopy if CxM-negative indicating low probability of presence. We present outcomes from prospective multi-institutional study CxM reduce frequency during the coronavirus pandemic.Eligible due for March-June 2020 were offered skipped CxM-negative. CxM-positive came immediate cystoscopy. The primary outcome was safety CxM-based...
