Kim J, Lee B, Koitsopoulos P, Shannon C, Chen V, Hollander Z, et al.
Clin Chem . 2020 Jul; 66(8):1063-1071. PMID: 32705124
Background: HEARTBiT is a whole blood-based gene profiling assay using the nucleic acid counting NanoString technology for the exclusionary diagnosis of acute cellular rejection in heart transplant patients. The HEARTBiT...

Kepplinger D, Takhar M, Sasaki M, Hollander Z, Smith D, McManus B, et al.
PLoS One . 2017 Jun; 12(5):e0177569. PMID: 28562641
The quantitation of proteins using shotgun proteomics has gained popularity in the last decades, simplifying sample handling procedures, removing extensive protein separation steps and achieving a relatively high throughput readout....

PLoS Pathog . 2016 May; 12(5):e1005658. PMID: 27191844
Cysteine peptidases play a central role in the biology of Leishmania. In this work, we sought to further elucidate the mechanism(s) by which the cysteine peptidase CPB contributes to L....

PLoS Pathog . 2015 Apr; 11(3):e1004776. PMID: 25826301
The protease GP63 is an important virulence factor of Leishmania parasites. We previously showed that GP63 reaches the perinuclear area of host macrophages and that it directly modifies nuclear translocation...

Phytother Res . 2014 Nov; 29(3):393-7. PMID: 25417600
A new phenolic derivative, 2,8-dihydroxy-7H-furo[2,3-f]chromen-7-one (1), together with isoquercitrin (2), was isolated from the aerial parts of Tibouchina paratropica. Compound structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods. Both compounds show antimicrobial...
