Will polygenic risk scores for cancer ever be clinically useful?
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2021-05-21) -
Winners vs Losers: The glutamate-NMDAR signalling axis in the regulation of cell fitness
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-05-21)Cell competition is an evolutionary conserved quality control process that eliminates suboptimal or potentially dangerous cells. For ‘unfit’ cells to be detected, their competitive status needs to be compared to the ... -
Wnt signalling modulates transcribed-ultraconserved regions in hepatobiliary cancers.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-09-14)OBJECTIVE: Transcribed-ultraconserved regions (T-UCR) are long non-coding RNAs which are conserved across species and are involved in carcinogenesis. We studied T-UCRs downstream of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in liver cancer. ... -
Women's Free-text Comments on their Quality of Life: An Exploratory Analysis from the UK Standardisation of Breast Radiotherapy (START) Trials for Early Breast Cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2018-07-01)AIMS: Exploratory analysis of patients' unsolicited written comments in the first 2 years of the Standardisation of Breast Radiotherapy (START) trial quality of life study highlighted a potential effect of non-treatment-related ... -
Workshop report: the clinical application of data from multiplex assays of variant effect (MAVEs), 12 July 2023.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2024-05-01)Clinical classification of genomic variants identified on sequencing is often challenging, with many variants classified as Variants of Uncertain Significance (VUS) on account of insufficient evidence. Advances in sequencing ... -
Worst case optimization for interfractional motion mitigation in carbon ion therapy of pancreatic cancer.
(2016-10-07)Introduction The efficacy of radiation therapy treatments for pancreatic cancer is compromised by abdominal motion which limits the spatial accuracy for dose delivery - especially for particles. In this work we investigate ... -
Would the Recommended Dose Have Been Different Using Novel Dose-Finding Designs? Comparing Dose-Finding Designs in Published Trials.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2021-06-01)UNLABELLED: Simulation studies have shown that novel designs such as the continual reassessment method and the Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design outperform the 3 + 3 design by recommending the maximum tolerated dose ... -
X-inactivation patch size in human female tissue confounds the assessment of tumor clonality
(2003-03-18)Most models of tumorigenesis assume that tumors are monoclonal in origin. This conclusion is based largely on studies using X chromosome-linked markers in females. One important factor, often ignored in such studies, is ... -
Y disruption, autosomal hypomethylation and poor male lung cancer survival.
(2021-06-14)Lung cancer is the most frequent cause of cancer death worldwide. It affects more men than women, and men generally have worse survival outcomes. We compared gene co-expression networks in affected and unaffected lung ... -
'You give me fever!': are health services ready for immune cell engager therapy in advanced solid malignancies?
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2022-12-01)Immune cell engager therapeutic strategies using bioengineered molecules to redirect immune cells into tumor are starting to demonstrate promising clinical activity in multiple early phase trials across numerous targets ... -
Young adults: a unique group in cancer epidemiological research.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-02-01) -
Young oncologists' perspective on the role and future of the clinician-scientist in oncology.
(ELSEVIER, 2023-10-01) -
Zebrafish as a model for cardiac disease; Cryo-EM structure of native cardiac thin filaments from Danio Rerio.
(SPRINGER, 2023-09-01)Actin, tropomyosin and troponin, the proteins that comprise the contractile apparatus of the cardiac thin filament, are highly conserved across species. We have used cryo-EM to study the three-dimensional structure of the ... -
αB-crystallin Expression in Breast Cancer is Associated with Brain Metastasis.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2015-10-21)BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The molecular chaperone αB-crystallin is expressed in estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 "triple-negative" breast carcinomas and promotes brain and ...
