Targeting arginine auxotrophy in pancreatic cancer cells using human recombinant arginase I-induced arginine deprivation. (c2017) by Khalil, Nathalie

“…Sensitivity to HuArgI (Co)- PEG5000-induced arginine deprivation was attributable to the complete dependence on exogenous arginine of two of the five PC cell lines tested and to the partial arginine auxotrophy in combination with fast proliferative requirements of the remaining three cell lines. The lack of ASS-1 expression was demonstrated to be the underlying cause behind complete arginine dependence. …”

Impact of severe hypoglycemia on the heat shock and related protein response by Alexander S. Atkin (18520107)

“…At baseline, MAPKAPK5 (p = 0.02) and UBE2G2 (p = 0.003) were elevated and STUB1 decreased (p = 0.007) in T2D. At hypoglycemia: PPP3CA (p < 0.03) was increased and EPHA2 (p = 0.01) reduced in T2D; by contrast, three proteins were reduced in controls [HSPA1A (p = 0.007), HSPB1 (p < 0.02), SMAD3 (p = 0.005)] while only MAPKAPK5 was elevated (p = 0.02). …”
