Marks (1926-2003) First and foremost a family man, Edwin Marks gave to others as he did to those nearest to him. Successful in business, a generous philanthropist, provider of sound advice, and a man with broad interests and intellect, Edwin Marks died on April 24, 2003. At the time of his death, he was Vice Chairman of our Board of Trustees and a most devoted and valued advi- sor. Born and raised in Brooklyn on the same block as his future wife, Nancy, Edwin's forma- tive years occurred as his father founded and developed a successful banking business. Established in the year before Edwin was born, Carl Marks & Co. initially traded foreign secu- rities but later, under Edwin's skilled leadership, expanded into a diverse banking enterprise including venture capital, private equities, corporate development, real estate, and financial advise and planning. Despite-or perhaps because of-his father's success, upon entering college, Edwin did not intend to pursue a career in banking. After schooling at Brooklyn's Poly Prep Country Day School, Edwin initially studied at Princeton, but a yearning to enter into the diplomatic core caused a change in direction that greatly influenced his future. Following the advice of a fam- ily friend, he transferred to the United States Military Academy at West Point. This surprising turn of events uprooted a potentially comfortable academic life at Princeton, but due to influ- ences from both West Point and General Maxwell Taylor, Edwin stretched himself beyond his upbringing. It was clear from discussions and e-mail correspondence with him that West Point was a special place never to leave Edwin's universe. Upon graduating, he married Nancy, and together, they set off on an adventure that lasted 54 years. Initially stationed in El Paso, Texas and Anchorage, Alaska, environs far from the neigh- borhood in Brooklyn, Edwin began to use his considerable skills in an eight-year military career. His capabilities as an entrepreneur, leader, and diplomat emerged. He enjoyed serv- ing his country. viii In 1953, when his father's health began to fail, Edwin's life took what must have been an unexpected turn when he joined his father's Wall Street firm, working his way up from the bottom to learn the business and eventually head the company.

  • Clinical Significance and Biological Role of L1 Cell Adhesion Molecule In
    www.nature.com/bjc ARTICLE Molecular Diagnostics Clinical significance and biological role of L1 cell adhesion molecule in gastric cancer Takashi Ichikawa1, Yoshinaga Okugawa 1, Yuji Toiyama1, Koji Tanaka1, Chengzeng Yin1, Takahito Kitajima1, Satoru Kondo1, Tadanobu Shimura1, Masaki Ohi1, Toshimitsu Araki1 and Masato Kusunoki1 BACKGROUND: L1 cell adhesion molecule (L1CAM) is highly expressed in malignant tumours and might play a pivotal role in tumour progression. METHODS: We analysed by immunohistochemistry L1CAM protein expression in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded specimens from 309 GC patients. We performed propensity score matching (PSM) analysis to clarify the prognostic impact of L1CAM in GC patients. We evaluated L1CAM gene expression in fresh frozen specimens from another group of 131 GC patients to establish its clinical relevance. The effects of changes in L1CAM were investigated in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS: L1CAM was mainly expressed in tumour cells of GC tissues. Elevated L1CAM expression was an independent prognostic factor for overall and disease-free survival, and an independent risk factor for distant metastasis in GC patients. PSM analysis showed that high L1CAM expression was significantly associated with poor prognosis. L1CAM gene expression using fresh frozen specimens successfully validated all of these findings in an independent cohort. Inhibition of L1CAM suppressed cell proliferation, cycle progress, invasion, migration and anoikis resistance in GC cells. Furthermore, L1CAM inhibition suppressed the growth of peritoneal

L1 induces colon cancer metastasis but not EMT and CSC markers Abstract Aberrant activation of WNT/β-catenin signaling is common in most sporadic and inherited colorectal cancer (CRC) cells leading to elevated β-catenin-TCF transactivation. We previously identified the neural cell adhesion molecule L1 as a target gene of β-catenin- TCF in CRC cells.

  • Learning from Cadherin Structures and Sequences: Affinity Determinants and Protein Architecture
    Learning from cadherin structures and sequences: affinity determinants and protein architecture Klára Fels ıvályi Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Klara Felsovalyi All rights reserved ABSTRACT Learning from cadherin structures and sequences: affinity determinants and protein architecture Klara Felsovalyi Cadherins are a family of cell-surface proteins mediating adhesion that are important in development and maintenance of tissues. The family is defined by the repeating cadherin domain (EC) in their extracellular region, but they are diverse in terms of protein size, architecture and cellular function. The best-understood subfamily is the type I classical cadherins, which are found in vertebrates and have five EC domains. Among the five different type I classical cadherins, the binding interactions are highly specific in their homo- and heterophilic binding affinities, though their sequences are very similar. As previously shown, E- and N-cadherins, two prototypic members of the subfamily, differ in their homophilic K D by about an order of magnitude, while their heterophilic affinity is intermediate. To examine the source of the binding affinity differences among type I cadherins, we used crystal structures, analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC), surface plasmon resonance (SPR), and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies. Phylogenetic analysis and binding affinity behavior show that the type I cadherins can be further divided into two subgroups, with E- and N-cadherin representing each. In addition to the affinity differences in their wild-type binding through the strand-swapped interface, a second interface also shows an affinity difference between E- and N-cadherin.

Received: 24 June 2019; Accepted: 23 August 2019; Published: 26 August 2019 Abstract: L1 cell adhesion molecule (L1CAM) is a glycoprotein involved in cancer development and is associated with metastases and poor prognosis. Cellular processing of L1CAM results in expression of either full-length or cleaved forms of the protein. The different forms of L1CAM may localize at the plasma membrane as a transmembrane protein, or in the intra- or extracellular environment as cleaved or exosomal forms. Here, we systematically analyze available literature that directly relates to L1CAM domains and associated signaling pathways in cancer. Specifically, we chart its domain-specific functions in relation to cancer progression, and outline pre-clinical assays used to assess L1CAM. It is found that full-length L1CAM has both intracellular and extracellular targets, including interactions with integrins, and linkage with ezrin. Cellular processing leading to proteolytic cleavage and/or exosome formation results in extracellular soluble forms of L1CAM that may act through similar mechanisms as compared to full-length L1CAM, such as integrin-dependent signals, but also through distinct mechanisms.

  • 2021 Code Changes Reference Guide
    Boston University Medical Group 2021 CPT Code Changes Reference Guide Page 1 of 51 Background Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) was created by the American Medical Association (AMA) in 1966. It is designed to be a means of effective and dependable communication among physicians, patients, and third-party payers. CPT provides a uniform coding scheme that accurately describes medical, surgical, and diagnostic services. CPT is used for public and private reimbursement systems; development of guidelines for medical care review; as a basis for local, regional, and national utilization comparisons; and medical education and research. CPT Category I codes describe procedures and services that are consistent with contemporary medical practice. Category I codes are five-digit numeric codes. CPT Category II codes facilitate data collection for certain services and test results that contribute to positive health outcomes and quality patient care. These codes are optional and used for performance management. They are alphanumeric five-digit codes with the alpha character F in the last position. CPT Category III codes represent emerging technologies. They are alphanumeric five-digit codes with the alpha character T in the last position. The CPT Editorial Panel, appointed by the AMA Board of Trustees, is responsible for maintaining and updating the CPT code set. Purpose The AMA makes annual updates to the CPT code set, effective January 1. These updates include deleted codes, revised codes, and new codes. It’s important for providers to understand the code changes and the impact those changes will have to systems, workflow, reimbursement, and RVUs. This document is meant to assist you with this by providing a summary of the changes; a detailed breakdown of this year’s CPT changes by specialty, and HCPCS Updates for your reference.
