Disease relevance of NRSN1

 

Psychiatry related information on NRSN1

 

High impact information on NRSN1

  • This phase 1/2 trial in 60 untreated MM patients aged at least 65 years (half older than 75 years) was designed to determine dosing, safety, and efficacy of bortezomib plus MP (VMP) [1].
  • VMP response rate was 89%, including 32% immunofixation-negative CRs, of whom half of the IF(-) CR patients analyzed achieved immunophenotypic remission (no detectable plasma cells at 10(-4) to 10(-5) sensitivity) [1].
  • One hundred fifteen patients with metastatic carcinoma of the breast were treated in a randomized trial of mitoxantrone (Novantrone, Lederle Laboratories, Pearl River, NY) combined with vincristine and prednisolone (VMP) or doxorubicin (Adriamycin, Adria Laboratories, Columbus, OH) combined with vincristine and prednisolone (VAP) [2].
  • So it is speculated that VMP may associated with microtubules through its C-terminal and plays an important role in vesicular organelles transport and nerve signals [8].
  • We performed a prospective study to evaluate the feasibility and activity of a second-line chemotherapy regimen consisting of etoposide, mitoxantrone, and prednimustine (VMP) in this setting [9].
 

Associations of NRSN1 with chemical compounds

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of NRSN1

  • RT-PCR analysis shows that VMP is expressed exclusively in brain of the 16 tissues examined, suggesting that it is a neuron-specific membrane protein [8].
  • At 2 years, the progression-free survival (PFS) rate was 25% with VMP versus 55% with CHOP (P = .002) and the overall survival (OS) rate was 30% with VMP versus 65% with CHOP (P = .004) [11].
  • Based on the response rate obtained with combined chemotherapy, a randomized trial of VMP initial chemotherapy is currently being undertaken by our cooperative group to study whether such an initial treatment could improve resectability and radiation-mediated local control along with survival rate [12].
  • Although the overall prognosis of patients with resistant or relapsed HIV-NHL is very poor, palliative therapy with VMP can be effective and relatively safe in the latter group [9].
  • The 'second turning point' (1976-1980), characterized by introduction of the systematic conventional polychemotherapy (VMP, VMCP, VBAP, VCAP) and complex supportive treatment, was associated with subsequent improvement of therapeutic response (OS 40 months, P=0.0000; 3- or 10-year survival was seen in 55 and 5.5% of patients) [13].
