Journal ArticleDOI
Proteasome inhibitors in cancer therapy
TL;DR: This review summarises the main mechanisms of action of proteasome inhibitors in cancer, the development of prote asome inhibitors as therapeutic agents and the properties and progress of next generation proteasom inhibitors in the clinic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased apoptotic peripheral blood neutrophils in systemic lupus erythematosus: relations with disease activity, antibodies to double stranded DNA, and neutropenia
TL;DR: Increased circulating apoptotic neutrophils in SLE correlate positively with disease activity (SLAM) and may contribute to autoantigen excess including dsDNA.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Multiple myeloma cells were more sensitive to induction of apoptosis by PS-341 and MG-132 than BzLLLCOCHO, emphasizing the need for further investigation of the effects of these compounds on gene and protein expression in the cell to allow for the development of more specific and targeted inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, consensus best practice guidelines for real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) testing, data interpretation and reporting were drawn up and agreed by a consortium of 21 testing laboratories in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Journal Article
Polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) with conserved biological activity.
TL;DR: A new coupling method is applied that allows coupling of MPEG directly to proteins under physiological conditions and is, as far as the authors are aware, the first successful construction of PEG-GM-CSF with conserved biological activity.
