Transcriptome analysis of novel B16 melanoma metastatic variants generated by serial intracarotid artery injection by Jenny C. Kienzler, Erick M. Contreras, Janet Treger, Linda M. Liau, Geoffrey C. Owens, Robert M. Prins

“…To investigate brain tropism, we generated new variants of the B16 mouse melanoma model by serially passaging B16 cells through the brain of immune competent syngeneic C57BL/6 mice. Cells were injected into the right carotid artery and recovered from the brain after the mice had reached the study endpoint due to tumor burden, then expanded in vitro and reinjected. …”

Lipid-Derived Mediators in Endogenous Anti-Inflammation and Resolution: Lipoxins and Aspirin-Triggered 15-epi-Lipoxins by Charles N. Serhan, Nan Chiang

“…ALXR also has the ability to interact with a wide panel of small peptides that give different signaling responses in vitro than LXA4 or its analogs, suggesting that ALXR is capable of serving as a multirecognition receptor in immune responses. Characterization of ALXR and development of metabolically stable LX and ATL analogs that are mimetics rapidly advanced our appreciation of the mechanism of LX actions and the potential utility of these counter-regulatory biocircuits in the quest to control local inflammatory events. …”
