Efficacy of a Small-Molecule Inhibitor of KrasG12D in Immunocompetent Models of Pancreatic Cancer

…, KZ Perez-Vale, B Kahn, F Mo, TR Donahue, CG Radu… - Cancer discovery, 2023 - AACR
Pharmacologic inhibition of KRAS G12D in pancreatic cancer models with an intact immune
system stimulates specific, potent, and durable tumor regressions. In the absence of overt …

A clinical microchip for evaluation of single immune cells reveals high functional heterogeneity in phenotypically similar T cells

…, T Chodon, RC Koya, CC Liu, GA Kwong, CG Radu… - Nature medicine, 2011 - nature.com
Cellular immunity has an inherent high level of functional heterogeneity. Capturing the full
spectrum of these functions requires analysis of large numbers of effector molecules from …

C Peter, M Waibel, CG Radu, LV Yang, ON Witte… - Journal of biological …, 2008 - ASBMB
Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells is fundamentally important throughout life, because non-cleared
cells become secondarily necrotic and release intracellular contents, thus instigating …

The AMPK agonist AICAR inhibits the growth of EGFRvIII-expressing glioblastomas by inhibiting lipogenesis

…, AD Watson, M Phelps, CG Radu… - Proceedings of the …, 2009 - National Acad Sciences
The EGFR/PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway is activated in many cancers including
