Gasic G, Arenas C, Gasic T, Gasic G
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 1992 Mar; 89(6):2317-20. PMID: 1532256
Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in the rat carotid artery leave the quiescent state and proliferate after balloon catheter injury. The precise signals responsible for this SMC mitogenesis need to be...

Holt G, Krivan H, Gasic G, Ginsburg V
J Biol Chem . 1989 Jul; 264(21):12138-40. PMID: 2745433
Antistasin, a 15-kDa salivary protein from the Mexican leech Haementeria officinalis, inhibits both blood coagulation and the metastasis of tumors (Tuszynski, G. P., Gasic, T. B., and Gasic, G. J....

Han J, Law S, Keller P, Kniskern P, Silberklang M, Tung J, et al.
Gene . 1989 Jan; 75(1):47-57. PMID: 2470652
As a factor Xa inhibitor, antistasin is a potent anti-coagulant and anti-metastatic agent that is found in the salivary gland of the Mexican leech Haementaria officinalis. cDNA clones that encode...

Nutt E, GASIC T, Rodkey J, Gasic G, Jacobs J, Friedman P, et al.
J Biol Chem . 1988 Jul; 263(21):10162-7. PMID: 3164720
Antistasin is a 15-kDa protein from the salivary glands of the Mexican leech, Haementeria officinalis, which manifests anticoagulant activity by inhibiting factor Xa. Previous work demonstrating the presence of this...

Starkey J, Stanford D, Magnuson J, Hamner S, Robertson N, Gasic G
J Cell Biochem . 1987 Sep; 35(1):31-49. PMID: 3312246
We have examined the nature of biochemical degradation of an isolated basement membrane matrix (bovine lens capsule) using different methodologies. The first strategy was quantitation of the release of surface-bound...

Tuszynski G, Gasic T, Rothman V, KNUDSEN K, Gasic G
Cancer Res . 1987 Aug; 47(15):4130-3. PMID: 3607754
The platelet-secreted protein thrombospondin (TSP) potentiates tumor cell metastasis. Human TSP injected i.v. into mice 5 min prior to i.v. injection of T241 sarcoma cells potentiates lung tumor colony formation....

Tuszynski G, Gasic T, Gasic G
J Biol Chem . 1987 Jul; 262(20):9718-23. PMID: 3689495
The purpose of this study was to purify and characterize the agent responsible for the antimetastatic activity of an extract of the salivary glands (SGE) of the Mexican leech Haementeria...

Iwakawa A, Gasic T, VINER E, Gasic G
Clin Exp Metastasis . 1986 Jul; 4(3):205-20. PMID: 3742892
The role of anticoagulation per se in the reduction of experimental or spontaneous metastasis still remains to be determined, as shown by the conflicting results reported by the literature using...

Cancer Res . 1984 Dec; 44(12 Pt 1):5670-6. PMID: 6498828
Studies were designed to determine whether salivary gland extract (SGE) from the leech Haementeria officinalis could inhibit enhancement of lung tumor colonization induced by pretreatment of mice with cyclophosphamide (CY)...
