Although encouraging progress to address issues of accessibility at scientific conferences has been made in recent years, further efforts are required to enact the comprehensive solutions necessary to accommodate the diverse needs of disabl…

We have previously demonstrated significant upregulation of dopamine D2 (DAD2) receptor (DRD2) expression on tumor endothelial cells. The dopamine D2 receptors, upon activation, inhibit the proangiogenic actions of vascular endothelial grow…

Phospholipase D2 (PLD2) is a cell-signaling molecule that bears two activities: a guanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) and a lipase that reside in the PX/PH domains and in two HKD domains, respectively. Upon cell stimulation, the GEF ac…

Anna Starzinski-Powitz grew up in Mainz, Germany, and obtained her undergraduate training from the university there, completing her diploma (equivalent to a masters degree) in 1975. She obtained her PhD thesis in cellular immunology under t…

Recent studies suggest that interstitial collagenase (MMP-1) is an essential enzyme in the early events leading to menstruation. This study analyses its cellular origin, regulation and relation to extracellular matrix breakdown in the human…
