Multiple activities are ascribed to the cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in health and disease. In particular, TNF was shown to affect carcinogenesis in multiple ways. This cytokine acts via the activation of two cell surface receptors, TNFR1, which is
To promote cancer research and to develop innovative therapies, refined pre-clinical mouse tumor models that mimic the actual disease in humans are of dire need. A number of neoplasms along the B cell lineage are commonly initiated by a translocation

The production of proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) a, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-8, increases in patients with sepsis; marked production causes organ failure and septic shock. We previously reported that ketamine suppressed lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced TNF-alpha production in
Methoxetamine (MXE) is a ketamine analog sold online that has been subject to widespread abuse for its dissociative and hallucinogenic effects. Previous studies have shown that MXE has high affinity for the phencyclidine (PCP) binding site located within the channel
Ketamine is usually administered as a racemate, which is composed of the two isomers, S(+)-and R(-)-ketamine. Recently, we have shown that racemic ketamine at clinical relevant concentrations specifically inhibits the transporter proteins for norepinephrine, dopamine and serotonin heterologously expressed in
