question:
A transgenic mouse model has revealed parameters of the angiogenic switch during multistep tumorigenesis of pancreatic islets, and demonstrated efficacy of antiangiogenic therapies. Pericytes have been revealed as functionally important for tumor neovasculature, using kinase inhibitors targeting their platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFRs). Additionally, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors and metronomic chemotherapy show modest benefit against early- but not late-stage disease.', 'Seeking to improve efficacy against otherwise intractable end-stage pancreatic islet tumors, two receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors, imatinib and SU11248, were used to disrupt PDGFR-mediated pericyte support of tumor endothelial cells in concert with maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) or metronomic chemotherapy and/or VEGFR inhibition.', 'Imatinib, despite equivocal efficacy as monotherapy, reduced pericyte coverage of tumor vessels and enhanced efficacy in combination with metronomic chemotherapy or VEGFR inhibition. A regimen involving all three was even better. MTD using cyclophosphamide caused transitory regression, but then rapid regrowth, in contrast to metronomic cyclophosphamide plus imatinib, which produced stable disease. The MTD regimen elicited apoptosis of tumor cells but not endothelial cells, whereas the other regimens increased endothelial cell apoptosis concordant with efficacy. A "chemo-switch" protocol, involving sequential MTD and then metronomic chemotherapy, overlaid with multitargeted inhibition of PDGFR and VEGFR, gave complete responses and unprecedented survival advantage in this model.
answer:
Is a multitargeted , metronomic , and maximum-tolerated dose '' chemo-switch '' regimen antiangiogenic , producing objective responses and survival benefit in a mouse model of cancer?

question:
The aim of this study was to review the impact of salvage external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) of postprostatectomy patients with long-term follow-up on biochemical-free recurrence (BFR) and metastatic-free survival, and to describe pathological and clinical predictors of outcome.', 'In the period 1987-2010, 76 postprostatectomy patients with biochemical and clinical recurrence received salvage EBRT. Patients were treated with conformal EBRT and 68 (90%) received a dose of 70 Gy; eight patients (10%) received a dose of 60-64 Gy. No patients received adjuvant or neoadjuvant androgen deprivation therapy in conjunction with salvage EBRT.', 'The median follow-up time after salvage EBRT was 82 months (range 5-192 months). Seventeen patients (22%) developed biochemical recurrence subsequent to postprostatectomy salvage EBRT during the observation time, and the overall 50 and 75 month actuarial BFR rates after salvage EBRT were 84% and 79%, respectively. Seven patients (9%) developed metastatic disease and two patients died of prostate cancer. Independent predictors of biochemical recurrence were seminal vesicle invasion (SVI) in the prostatectomy specimen (p < 0.05) and prostate-specific antigen doubling time (PSADT) of 6 months or less (p = 0.041) before salvage EBRT.
answer:
Is prostate-specific antigen doubling time subsequent to radical prostatectomy a predictor of outcome following salvage external beam radiation therapy : a single-centre experience?

question:
To demonstrate the role of RpoE during the later stage of hyperosmotic stress in Salmonella.', 'Expressions of SPI-1 and SPI-2 under hyperosmotic stress for 120 min were investigated by a microarray, and the invasion and intracellular survival of wild-type and rpoE strains were compared. The global differential expression of bacterial proteins between the wild-type and rpoE strains was examined after 120 min of hyperosmotic stress.', 'SPI-1 and SPI-2 were repressed, and the invasion and intracellular survival were defected in the rpoE strain. Thirteen bacterial-associated proteins and 11 secreted proteins differed significantly between the wild-type and rpoE strains.
answer:
Does rpoE promote invasion and intracellular survival by regulating SPI-1 and SPI-2 in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi?
