Disease relevance of DCPS

  • After having received a total of 14 to 48 DCPS, further treatment for pemphigus was withdrawn [1].
 

High impact information on DCPS

  • The resulting Dcs2 protein forms a heterodimer together with Dcs1, both modulating Dcs1 substrate specificity and suppressing its k(cat) [2].
  • Furthermore, we show that a novel human histidine triad protein DCS-1, which is expressed together with NR1 in many tissues, can significantly reduce menadione-induced cytotoxicity in these cells [3].
  • We also show that DCS-1 binds NF1 and directly modulates its activity [3].
  • Role of a novel dual flavin reductase (NR1) and an associated histidine triad protein (DCS-1) in menadione-induced cytotoxicity [3].
  • In between the DCPS, the patient receives only 50 mg cyclophosphamide orally daily and generally no corticosteroids [4].
