We have previously reported that MUC4 expression is a poor prognostic factor in various carcinomas. Our previous study also showed that MUC1 expression in gastric cancers, including the early and advanced stages is a poor prognostic factor. In the present study, the expression profiles of MUC4 and MUC1 were examined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) using two anti-MUC4 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), 8G7 and 1G8, and anti-MUC1 MAb DF3 in 104 gastrectomy specimens of early gastric adenocarcinoma with submucosal invasion (pT1b2), including 197 histological subtype lesions. Before the IHC study of the human specimens, we evaluated the specificity of the two MAbs by …
Suicide Rate In The Dental Profession: Fact Or Myth And Coping Strategies, Brian M. Lange, Eric Y.K. Fung, David G. Dunning
Suicide Rate In The Dental Profession: Fact Or Myth And Coping Strategies, Brian M. Lange, Eric Y.K. Fung, David G. Dunning
Journal Articles: College of Dentistry
This article summarizes relevant scientific data on the alleged high suicide rate among dentists as compared to other health care professions. Potential contributing risk factors for the dental profession are identified. In addition, a brief review is provided for major depressive disorder, a contributor to increased suicide, along with its symptoms, underlying theory, drug treatment and coping skills to combat this disorder.]
Expression Of Muc17 Is Regulated By Hif1Α-Mediated Hypoxic Responses And Requires A Methylation-Free Hypoxia Responsible Element In Pancreatic Cancer., Sho Kitamoto, Seiya Yokoyama, Michiyo Higashi, Norishige Yamada, Shyuichiro Matsubara, Sonshin Takao, Surinder K. Batra, Suguru Yonezawa

MUC17 is a type 1 membrane-bound glycoprotein that is mainly expressed in the digestive tract. Recent studies have demonstrated that the aberrant overexpression of MUC17 is correlated with the malignant potential of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs); however, the exact regulatory mechanism of MUC17 expression has yet to be identified. Here, we provide the first report of the MUC17 regulatory mechanism under hypoxia, an essential feature of the tumor microenvironment and a driving force of cancer progression. Our data revealed that MUC17 was significantly induced by hypoxic stimulation through a hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF1α)-dependent pathway in some pancreatic cancer cells (e.g., …

UNLABELLED: Subminimal inhibitory concentrations of antibiotics have been shown to induce bacterial biofilm formation. Few studies have investigated antibiotic-induced biofilm formation in Staphylococcus aureus, an important human pathogen. Our goal was to measure S. aureus biofilm formation in the presence of low levels of β-lactam antibiotics. Fifteen phylogenetically diverse methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) strains were employed. Methicillin, ampicillin, amoxicillin, and cloxacillin were added to cultures at concentrations ranging from 0× to 1× MIC. Biofilm formation was measured in 96-well microtiter plates using a crystal violet binding assay. Autoaggregation was measured using a visual test tube …
Etiquette In Making The Transition Into Private Practice, David G. Dunning
Etiquette In Making The Transition Into Private Practice, David G. Dunning
Journal Articles: College of Dentistry
In this article, the author offers several tips for students who are making transition into private dental practice. It suggests not disclosing the agreed terms and information related with negotiating practice or dentist or organization. It states that the initial focus should not be concentrated on salary or compensation or practice performance indicators. It mentions that before getting into details of each opportunity, students needs to decide their priorities.

Journal Articles: College of Dentistry
Over the last twenty-seven years, the evaluation of practice man- agement in dental schools has been documented by three studies. In twenty-seven years the teaching of practice management has been influenced by changes in the definition of practice manage- ment, resources available to dental schools, technology, changes in accreditation standards and, more recently, the influence of corpora- tions marketing to dental students. In an effort to determine what resources dental schools are utilizing to teach practice management, fifty-seven schools were contacted, and fifty faculty members with teaching responsibilities were identi- fied. An on-line email survey was administered and results reported …
