Delayed DNA double-strand break repair following platin-based chemotherapy predicts treatment response in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-09-27)INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to investigate if defective repair of DNA double-strand break (DSB) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) could be used as an early predictor of treatment response. METHODS: ... -
Delineating the HMGB1 and HMGB2 interactome in prostate and ovary epithelial cells and its relationship with cancer.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-04-10)High Mobility Group B (HMGB) proteins are involved in cancer progression and in cellular responses to platinum compounds used in the chemotherapy of prostate and ovary cancer. Here we use affinity purification coupled to ... -
Delivering widespread BRCA testing and PARP inhibition to patients with ovarian cancer.
(2017-05)The treatment of patients with ovarian cancer is rapidly changing following the success of poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase (PARP) inhibitors in clinical trials. Olaparib is the first PARP inhibitor to be approved by the EMA ... -
A Delphi consensus statement for digital surgery.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-07-19)The use of digital technology is increasing rapidly across surgical specialities, yet there is no consensus for the term 'digital surgery'. This is critical as digital health technologies present technical, governance, and ... -
Demonstrating In-Cell Target Engagement Using a Pirin Protein Degradation Probe (CCT367766).
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2018-02-08)Demonstrating intracellular protein target engagement is an essential step in the development and progression of new chemical probes and potential small molecule therapeutics. However, this can be particularly challenging ... -
Demonstration of correlations between clinical and physical image quality measures in chest and lumbar spine screen-film radiography
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2001-06)The ability to predict clinical image quality from physical measures is useful for optimization in diagnostic radiology. In this work, clinical and physical assessments of image quality are compared and correlations between ... -
Dependence of inertial cavitation induced by high intensity focused ultrasound on transducer F-number and nonlinear waveform distortion.
(ACOUSTICAL SOC AMER AMER INST PHYSICS, 2018-09-01)Pulsed high intensity focused ultrasound was shown to enhance chemotherapeutic drug uptake in tumor tissue through inertial cavitation, which is commonly assumed to require peak rarefactional pressures to exceed a certain ... -
Deregulated expression of HDAC9 in B cells promotes development of lymphoproliferative disease and lymphoma in mice.
(COMPANY BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2016-12-01)Histone deacetylase 9 (HDAC9) is expressed in B cells, and its overexpression has been observed in B-lymphoproliferative disorders, including B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). We examined HDAC9 protein expression and ... -
Deregulation of the Egfr/Ras signaling pathway induces age-related brain degeneration in the Drosophila mutant vap
(2003-01)Ras signaling has been shown to play an important role in promoting cell survival in many different tissues. Here we show that upregulation of Ras activity in adult Drosophila neurons induces neuronal cell death, as evident ... -
Derivation of Dose/Volume Constraints for the Anorectum from Clinician- and Patient-Reported Outcomes in the CHHiP Trial of Radiation Therapy Fractionation.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-04-01)PURPOSE: The CHHiP trial randomized 3216 men with localized prostate cancer (1:1:1) to 3 radiation therapy fractionation schedules: 74 Gy in 37 fractions over 7.4 weeks; 60 Gy in 20 fractions over 4 weeks; and 57 Gy in 19 ... -
Describing Unmet Supportive Care Needs among Young Adults with Cancer (25-39 Years) and the Relationship with Health-Related Quality of Life, Psychological Distress, and Illness Cognitions.
(MDPI, 2021-09-28)Few studies describe supportive care needs among young adults (YAs) with cancer ages 25 to 39 using validated questionnaires. Previous findings identified the need for psychological and information support and suggest that ... -
Descriptive analysis of MRI functional changes occurring during reduced dose radiotherapy for myxoid liposarcomas.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2021-10-01)OBJECTIVES: Myxoid liposarcomas (MLS) show enhanced response to radiotherapy due to their distinctive vascular pattern and therefore could be effectively treated with lower radiation doses. This is a descriptive study to ... -
Design and synthesis of bifunctional molecules for directing phosphorylation
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-05-04)The field of bifunctional molecules such as PROTAC, DUBTAC and PhoRC has demonstrated that inducing proximity between two protein complexes is sufficient to redirect post-translational modifications (PTMs), and effect ... -
