Translating JAKs to Jakinibs [TRANSLATING IMMUNOLOGY]
The discovery of JAKs and STATs and their roles in cytokine and IFN action represented a significant basic advance and a new paradigm in cell signaling. This was quickly followed by discoveries pointing to their essential functions, including identification of JAK3 mutations as a cause of SCID. This and other findings predicted the use of therapeutically targeting JAKs as a new strategy for treating immune and inflammatory diseases. This now is a reality with seven approved jakinibs being used to...

Aid to safe transfer of the vascular pedicle to the neck using a saline-filled Penrose drain
After free-flap harvest, the flap and vascular pedicle must be oriented, and the pedicle passed into the neck for anastomosis with the recipient neck vessels. For defects of the mandible, floor of the mouth, or lateral tongue, this is straightforward, but for those of the maxilla or soft palate, the pedicle must be passed through a long, narrow tunnel before it reaches the recipient site. The surgeon must be very careful to avoid inadvertently twisting it (with consequent failure of the flap) during...

Phase 1 dose escalation trial of TAS-102 (trifluridine/tipiracil) and temozolomide in the treatment of advanced neuroendocrine tumors
Summary Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are understudied and have limited systemic treatment options. Prior studies for patients with advanced NETs have demonstrated promising results when antimetabolite agents, including fluoropyrimidines, were combined with temozolomide TMZ. TAS-102 (trifluridine/tipiracil) is an antineoplastic agent that is non-cross resistant with 5-fluorouracil and capecitabine and that has a different toxicity profile. This study evaluated the safety of TAS-102...
