(Rockefeller University Press, 1987-08-01)
Evidence derived from the complete amino acid sequences of the variable regions of both the heavy and light chains of two members (BOR and KAS) of the Wa idiotypic family of human rheumatoid factors suggests that not only ...
Selective expression of a VHIV subfamily of immunoglobulin genes in human CD5+ B lymphocytes from cord blood.
(Rockefeller University Press, 1991-07-01)
Human B lymphocytes expressing the CD5 surface antigen (CD5+ B cells) constitute a subset capable of producing polyspecific antibodies recognizing a variety of self antigens. The repertoire of antibodies produced by CD5+ ...

Hypoxia facilitates tumour cell detachment by reducing expression of surface adhesion molecules and adhesion to extracellular matrices without loss of cell viability.
(1998-06)
The effects of acute hypoxia on integrin expression and adhesion to extracellular matrix proteins were investigated in two human melanoma cell lines, HMB-2 and DX3, and a human adenocarcinoma cell line, HT29. Exposure to ...
Clinical trial designs for testing of products for dentine hypersensitivity--a review.
(1997)
Dentine hypersensitivity (DH) is a perplexing clinical entity. There is no doubt that patients self-report discomfort arising from various stimuli, but the highly subjective nature of the condition makes it extremely ...
