Disease relevance of FOSB

  • Eight to 12 weeks after stroke 12 patients were without clinical signs (Glasgow Outcome Scale [GOS] 1), 15 patients had minor neurologic deficits (GOS 2), 10 were severely disabled (GOS 3), and eight patients had died (GOS 5) [1].
  • Of those patients with post-operative hemorrhage at three months follow up three patients (13%) succumbed from reasons not directly related to hemorrhage, one patient remained GOS 2 (4.3%), four patients (17.4%) were GOS 3 and 15 (65.4%) patients had favorable outcome (GOS 4 [one patient] and GOS5 [14 patients]) [2].
  • One patient with GOS 3 presented with a poor grade subarachnoid hemorrhage and the other patient with GOS 4 presented with a parenchymal hemorrhage due to an arteriovenous malformation [3].
  • 26.3% survived severely disabled (GOS 3), no case suffered from a vegetative state (GOS 2) but 21.1% died (GOS 1) [4].
  • RESULTS: In the group of 41 treated patients with unruptured aneurysms, 40 (97.6%) had good outcomes (GOS 1-2) and 1 patient had poor (GOS 3) outcome at discharge [5].
 

High impact information on FOSB

  • The levels of two other immediate-early genes, fosb and c-jun, also increased transiently after fibroblast contraction, whereas the levels of fra-1, fra-2, c-myc, and the transcription factor NF-kappaB remained the same, indicating that fibroblast contraction caused changes in a selective group of genes [6].
  • The tumor lines GOS3, M059K, CCFSTTG1 and A172, as well as primary normal astrocytes, were nontumorigenic and noninvasive in this experimental model [7].
  • In two GOS 2 vegetative patients with normal morphological MRI, MRS detected severe functional damage of the brainstem (NAA/Cr < 1.50) that was described as "invisible brain stem damage." MRI and MRS taken separately could not distinguish patients GOS 3 (n = 7) from GOS 1-2 (n = 11) and GOS 4-5 (n = 20) [8].
  • In this study, 14 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and 11 serum samples of patients with neuroPCM were analyzed by inh-ELISA for detection of circulating glycoprotein antigens of 43 kDa (gp43) and 70 kDa (gp70) [9].
  • Maximum GOS3 synthesis was reached at a water activity interval of 0.44-0.57, with lactose concentrations of 0.06%-0.1%, while GOS4 and GOS5 maxima were reached at water activity intervals of 0.47-0.57 and 0.49-0.60, respectively [10].
 

Biological context of FOSB

  • Regions of low potential in a 68.5-kb genomic segment containing the FOSB gene suggest that the potential may help locate genes in uncharted DNA sequences [11].
  • G0S3 is a member of a set of putative G0/G1 switch regulatory genes (G0S genes) selected by screening cDNA libraries prepared from human blood mononuclear cells cultured for 2 hr with lectin and cycloheximide [11].
 

Anatomical context of FOSB

 

Associations of FOSB with chemical compounds

  • In preincubated cells, the cycloheximide response is decreased, especially in the case of FOSB [11].
  • In addition, both gp43 and gp70 antigens were detected in 10 of 11 serum samples analyzed at mean concentrations of 4.6 and 4.0 mug/ml, respectively [9].
 

Other interactions of FOSB

  • These differences in expression of FOS and FOSB suggest different roles and regulation [11].
  • The sequence shows high homology with the murine FOSB gene, which encodes a component of the AP1 transcriptional regulator [11].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of FOSB

  • At 6 months after the procedure, 3 patients (25%) had achieved a good recovery (Glasgow Outcome Scale [GOS] score of 5), 5 patients (42%) were dependent (GOS 3), and 1 (8.3%) remained vegetative (GOS 2) [13].
  • The detection of anti-gp43 and anti-gp70 antibodies by conventional ELISA showed positive results for all CSF samples, with titers ranging from 1:50 to 1:51,200 [9].
  • Patients with GOS 3 at the end of early rehabilitation on the other hand could improve in 51 cases to GOS 4 and 5 [14].
