An NQO1- and PARP-1-mediated cell death pathway induced in non-small-cell lung cancer cells by beta-lapachone. (2007)

Bey, Erik A., Bentle, Melissa S., Reinicke, Kathryn E., Dong, Ying, Yang, Chin-Rang, Girard, Luc, ...

Lung cancer is the number one cause of cancer-related deaths in the world. Patients treated with current chemotherapies for non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) have a survival rate of approximately...

High-throughput oncogene mutation profiling in human cancer (2007)

A Genome-Wide Screen for Promoter Methylation in Lung Cancer Identifies Novel Methylation Markers for Multiple Malignancies (2006)

David S. Shames, Luc Girard, Boning Gao, Mitsuo Sato, Cheryl M. Lewis, Narayan Shivapurkar, ...

BackgroundPromoter hypermethylation coupled with loss of heterozygosity at the same locus results in loss of gene function in many tumor cells. The “rules” governing which genes are methylated...

L’avenir des services de référence des bibliothèques universitaires (2004)

Farhat, Jihad, Girard, Luc

Le texte qui suit présente d’abord une « petite histoire de la référence », une rétrospective des pratiques de services de référence dans les bibliothèques universitaires depuis les...

La véritable nature de la recherche d’information (2002)

Girard, Luc

Il existe une méthodologie de la recherche de l'information spécialisée au même titre que des méthodologies de recherche des différentes disciplines. Cette méthodologie implique d'identifier...

Optical Tests of a 2.5-m diameter Liquid Mirror: Behavior under External Perturbations and Scattered Light Measurements (1997)

Girard, Luc, Borra, Ermanno F.

Interferometric tests of a f/1.2 2.5-m diameter liquid mirror show RMS surface deviations about wave/20 and Strehl ratios of order 0.6, showing that it is diffraction limited. The mirror is certainly...

Liquid Mirror Telescopes: A progress report (1996)

Borra, Ermanno F., Ferrari, Marc, Girard, Luc, Moretto, Gilberto, Tremblay, Gregoire, Lemaitre, Gerard

We review the present status of liquid mirror telescopes. Interferometric tests of liquid mirrors (the largest one having a diameter of 2.5 meters ) show excellent optical qualities. The basic...

Ahi-1, a Novel Gene Encoding a Modular Protein with WD40-Repeat and SH3 Domains, Is Targeted by the Ahi-1 and Mis-2 Provirus Integrations

Jiang, Xiaoyan, Hanna, Zaher, Kaouass, Mohammadi, Girard, Luc, Jolicoeur, Paul

The Ahi-1 locus was initially identified as a common helper provirus integration site in Abelson pre-B-cell lymphomas and shown to be closely linked to the c-myb proto-oncogene. Since no significant...

A Genome-Wide Screen for Promoter Methylation in Lung Cancer Identifies Novel Methylation Markers for Multiple Malignancies

Shames, David S, Girard, Luc, Gao, Boning, Sato, Mitsuo, Lewis, Cheryl M, Shivapurkar, Narayan, ...

John Minna and colleagues report that a group of genes are commonly methylated in primary lung, breast, colon, and prostate cancer.
