SOCS and Herpesviruses, With Emphasis on Cytomegalovirus Retinitis

Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) proteins provide selective negative feedback to prevent pathogeneses caused by overstimulation of the immune system.Of the eight known SOCS proteins, SOCS1 and SOCS3 are the best studied, and systemic deletion of either gene causes early lethality in mice.Many viruses, including herpesviruses such as herpes s

Bilateral video-assisted thoracic surgery for esophageal cancer with left inferior pulmonary vein invasion following chemoradiation therapy

Abstract Background The surgical strategy for thoracic esophageal cancer that invades the lungs is controversial.In particular, invasion of the pulmonary vein is often regarded unresectable.We successfully applied bilateral video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) in esophagectomy for esophageal cancer with left inferior pulmonary vein invasion follo
