Shikhman A, Brinson D, Valbracht J, Lotz M
Osteoarthritis Cartilage . 2009 Apr; 17(8):1022-8. PMID: 19332174
Objective: Aminosugars are commonly used to treat osteoarthritis; however, molecular mechanisms mediating their anti-arthritic activities are still poorly understood. This study analyzes facilitated transport and metabolic effects of glucosamine (GlcN)...

Komuro H, Olee T, Kuhn K, Quach J, Brinson D, Shikhman A, et al.
Arthritis Rheum . 2002 Jan; 44(12):2768-76. PMID: 11762937
Objective: The receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB (RANK) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family. It is activated by the secreted or cell surface-bound RANK ligand...

Shikhman A, Brinson D, Valbracht J, Lotz M
J Immunol . 2001 Dec; 167(12):7001-8. PMID: 11739520
Glucose serves as the major energy substrate and the main precursor for the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans in chondrocytes. Facilitated glucose transport represents the first rate-limiting step in glucose metabolism. This...

Geng Y, Valbracht J, Lotz M
J Clin Invest . 1996 Nov; 98(10):2425-30. PMID: 8941662
Previous studies suggested that tyrosine kinase activation is an important signal transduction event in the IL-1 response of chondrocytes. The present study identifies the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases extracellular signal-regulated...

Schwarz H, Blanco F, von Kempis J, Valbracht J, Lotz M
Blood . 1996 Apr; 87(7):2839-45. PMID: 8639902
ILA, a gene induced by lymphocyte activation, is a member of the human nerve growth factor tumor necrosis factor receptor family and the human homologue of murine 4-1BB. The present...

Schwarz H, Valbracht J, Tuckwell J, von Kempis J, Lotz M
Blood . 1995 Feb; 85(4):1043-52. PMID: 7849293
We recently identified a gene that is induced by lymphocyte activation (ILA). The sequence of the full-length 1.4-kb cDNA characterized ILA as a new member of the nerve growth factor/tumor...

Rhodes G, Carson D, Valbracht J, Houghten R, Vaughan J
J Immunol . 1985 Jan; 134(1):211-6. PMID: 2981091
Humans infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), the causative agent of infectious mononucleosis, develop antibodies against a nuclear antigen (EBNA) that is present in virally transformed B lymphocytes. The EBNA protein...
