The tumour vasculature is an attractive target for therapy. Combretastatin A‐4 (CA‐4) and A‐1
(CA‐1) are tubulin binding agents, structurally related to colchicine, which induce vascular…

A systematic review was undertaken to examine the evidence for B-type natriuretic peptides
(BNP and NT-proBNP) as independent predictors of mortality, morbidity, or combined …

Our purpose was to determine the test performance characteristics of BNP and NT-proBNP
in the diagnosis of heart failure for patients presenting to an emergency department or urgent …

The “entanglement of formation” of a mixed state ρ of a bipartite quantum system can be
defined as the minimum number of singlets needed to create an ensemble of pure states that …

Selective induction of vascular damage within tumors represents an emerging approach to
cancer treatment. Histological studies have shown that several tubulin-binding agents can …

Corporate venture (CV) units constitute vehicles through which firms may act ambidextrously,
thereby increasing their longevity, but they suffer from a high failure rate. The authors …

Tissue factor (TF) expression by tumor cells correlates with metastasis clinically and
supports metastasis in experimental settings. However, the precise pathways coupling TF to …

We develop a typology of corporate venture units, based on their strategic role in the corporation,
and specifically on (a) their relative emphasis on exploration versus exploitation and (b…

OBJECTIVE: Antidepressants that increase serotonin or norepinephrine in the brain are
effective in treating depression, but there is no neuropsychological account of how these …

Insulin inhibits proteolysis in human muscle thereby increasing protein anabolism. In contrast,
IGF-I promotes muscle protein anabolism principally by stimulating protein synthesis. As …
