  • Further research in this field may allow pregnant women more options in treating this very common conditon of pregnancy.

  • Moreover, if some chemotherapeutic agents are not only directly cytotoxic to cancer cells, but also reduce tumor production of growth factors, such as IGF2 and TGFβ, adjuvant chemotherapy would be more useful in treating tumors with a mutated M6P/IGF2R , as observed in this study.

  • Various studies in mammals have shown that Hh genes are expressed in discrete areas of the adult organism and may function in the normal maintenance of mature organ systems [ 43 44 45 46 ] . In addition, the regenerative healing of vascular and skeletal tissues following acute injuries appears to be aided by re-activating the Hh-signaling cascade [ 47 48 ] . Taken together, these observations suggest that the Hh pathway may represent a point of intervention for treating certain degenerative disorders.

  • The proto-oncogene TEL (Translocation, Ets, Leukemia) is a transcriptional repressor that contains a C-terminal Ets family DNA binding domain; a central domain that together with co-repressors recruit histone deacetylases [ 1 2 3 ] ; and an N-terminal SAM (sterile, alpha, motif) domain [ 4 5 6 ] , which we have recently shown forms a polymer [ 7 ] . Chromosomal translocations in a variety of leukemias result in fusion of the SAM domain of TEL to tyrosine kinase domains such as ABL, PDGFβ and JAK2 [ 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 ] or to the transcriptional activators AML1 and ARNT [ 15 16 17 ] . In the tyrosine kinase fusions, SAM domain polymerization leads to constitutive activation of the tyrosine kinase domains, which leads in turn to cell transformation [ 10 12 18 19 ] . Thus, compounds that block TEL-SAM polymerization could be effective in treating these leukemias.

  • Selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors are recognized as an effective biological treatment for OCD [ 20 ] . In a double blind, placebo control study, treating over 500 patients with OCD, clomipramine was found to be superior to placebo [ 30 ] .
