ERAP1 regulates natural killer cell function by controlling the engagement of inhibitory receptors

The endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase ERAP1 regulates innate and adaptive immune responses by trimming peptides for presentation by MHC class I (MHC-I) molecules. Herein we demonstrate that genetic or pharmacological inhibition of ERAP1 on human tum...

ERAP1 Downregulation Enhances NK Cell Function

The endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase ERAP1 regulates innate and adaptive immune responses by trimming peptides for presentation by MHC class I (MHC-I) molecules. Herein, we demonstrate that genetic or pharmacological inhibition of ERAP1 on human t...

Establishment and characterization of a cell line from human circulating colon cancer cells

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood are promising new biomarkers potentially useful for prognostic prediction and monitoring of therapies in patients with solid tumors including colon cancer. Moreover, CTC research opens a new avenue for understand...

Characterization of a Colon CTC Line

Towards a Science of Tumor Forecasting for Clinical Oncology

We propose that the quantitative cancer biology community make a concerted effort to apply lessons from weather forecasting to develop an analogous methodology for predicting and evaluating tumor growth and treatment response. Currently, the time cours...
