Lucas A, Salsman J, Levine B, Stoner L, Skelton J, Moore J
Prev Med . 2021 Jul; 153:106725. PMID: 34271076
Behavioral theories inform the development of lifestyle interventions to address low participation in physical activity (PA); however, relatively little is known about the value of self-determination theory (SDT) for explaining...

Chukkapalli S, Velsko I, Rivera-Kweh M, Larjava H, Lucas A, Kesavalu L
Mol Oral Microbiol . 2016 May; 32(3):211-225. PMID: 27224005
Toll-like-receptors (TLRs) play a significant role in the generation of a specific innate immune response against invading pathogens. TLR2 and TLR4 signaling contributes to infection-induced inflammation in periodontal disease (PD)...

Kesavalu L, Lucas A, Verma R, Liu L, Dai E, Sampson E, et al.
J Dent Res . 2012 Jan; 91(3):255-60. PMID: 22262633
Streptococcus mutans, a dental caries pathogen, also causes endocarditis and is detected in atheroscelerotic plaque. We investigated the potential for an invasive strain of S. mutans, OMZ175, to accelerate plaque...

Martinez-Arribas F, Martin-Garabato E, Zapardiel I, Sanchez J, Lucas A, Tejerina A, et al.
Anticancer Res . 2008 Nov; 28(5A):2595-8. PMID: 19035283
Background: Bax is one of the main effectors of apoptosis in breast cancer. However, in contrast with the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2, which has been extensively studied in this tumor, there...

Martin-Garabato E, Martinez-Arribas F, Pollan M, Lucas A, Sanchez J, Schneider J
Cancer Genomics Proteomics . 2008 Sep; 5(3-4):169-73. PMID: 18820371
Background: There are very few studies on the final triggers of apoptosis, the caspases, in breast cancer. Materials And Methods: Caspase-3 expression was studied by means of reverse transcript polymerase...

Munuswamy-Ramanujam G, Khan K, Lucas A
Endocr Metab Immune Disord Drug Targets . 2007 Jan; 6(4):331-43. PMID: 17214579
Inflammatory and immune responses are inherent in the development of progressive arthritic or vasculitic disorders. Arthritis is frequently associated with accelerated forms of vasculitis; atherosclerosis being one form of accelerated...

Breast Cancer Res Treat . 2005 Jun; 92(1):77-80. PMID: 15980994
Background: In the case of DNA-aneuploid tumors there are no clear guidelines as to which S-phase fraction is the more relevant one: that corresponding to either the diploid or the...

Breast Cancer Res . 2003 Jun; 5(3):R65-70. PMID: 12793902
Background: Mammaglobin (h-MAM) is expressed mainly by breast epithelial cells, and this feature has been used to detect circulating breast cancer cells and occult metastases in sentinel axillary lymph nodes...

Martinez-Arribas F, Nunez-Villar M, Lucas A, Sanchez J, Tejerina A, Schneider J
Anticancer Res . 2003 Apr; 23(1B):565-8. PMID: 12680147
Background: The balance between the expression of the antiapoptotic gene Bcl-2 and the proapoptotic gene Bax is considered a good indicator of the apoptotic activity of tumor cells. Bcl-2 and...

Br J Cancer . 2003 Jan; 88(1):96-101. PMID: 12556966
Both urokinase-like plasminogen activator (uPA) and its inhibitor plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1), as well as uPA-PAI-1 complexes, have been identified as important prognostic factors in breast cancer. We have recently...
