(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2021-08-01)AIMS: Adolescents and young adults aged 15-39 years with cancer face unique medical, practical and psychosocial issues. In the UK, principal treatment centres and programmes have been designed to care for teenage and young ... -
Beyond the Driver Mutation: Immunotherapies in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-08-20)Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are a subtype of soft tissue sarcoma (STS), and have become a concept of oncogenic addiction and targeted therapies.The large majority of these tumors develop after a mutation in KIT ... -
Biallelic TRIP13 mutations predispose to Wilms tumor and chromosome missegregation.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-07-01)Through exome sequencing, we identified six individuals with biallelic loss-of-function mutations in TRIP13. All six developed Wilms tumor. Constitutional mosaic aneuploidies, microcephaly, developmental delay and seizures, ... -
Bidirectional epithelial-mesenchymal crosstalk provides self-sustaining profibrotic signals in pulmonary fibrosis.
(ELSEVIER, 2021-09-01)Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the prototypic progressive fibrotic lung disease with a median survival of 2 to 4 years. Injury to and/or dysfunction of the alveolar epithelium is strongly implicated in IPF disease ... -
Bidirectional eukaryotic DNA replication is established by quasi-symmetrical helicase loading.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2017-07-21)Bidirectional replication from eukaryotic DNA replication origins requires the loading of two ring-shaped minichromosome maintenance (MCM) helicases around DNA in opposite orientations. MCM loading is orchestrated by binding ... -
Bidirectional Mendelian randomisation analysis of the relationship between circulating vitamin D concentration and colorectal cancer risk.
(WILEY, 2022-01-15)Epidemiological evidence is consistent with a protective effect of vitamin D against colorectal cancer (CRC), but the observed strong associations are open to confounders and potential reverse causation. Previous Mendelian ... -
Bilateral mammoplasty for cancer: Surgical, oncological and patient-reported outcomes.
(2017-01)Introduction Bilateral mammoplasty (BM) can optimise oncological safety and aesthetic outcomes in women with large or ptotic breasts whose tumour to breast volume ratio or tumour location pose a challenge to standard ... -
Bile Acid Malabsorption as a Consequence of Cancer Treatment: Prevalence and Management in the National Leading Centre.
(2021-12-10)The aim was to establish prevalence of bile acid malabsorption (BAM) and management in patients who underwent treatment for malignancy. Retrospective evaluation of data in patients seen within six months (August 2019-January ... -
Binding to an Unusual Inactive Kinase Conformation by Highly Selective Inhibitors of Inositol-Requiring Enzyme 1α Kinase-Endoribonuclease.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2019-02-19)A series of imidazo[1,2- b]pyridazin-8-amine kinase inhibitors were discovered to allosterically inhibit the endoribonuclease function of the dual kinase-endoribonuclease inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α), a key component ... -
A biochemical analysis of human shelterin complexes
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2022-08-25)Linear chromosomes present two major challenges, known as the end-replication and end-protection problems. The human shelterin complex is a dynamic assembly of six components, consisting of TRF1, TRF2, RAP1, TIN2, TPP1, ... -
Biochemical Recurrence Surrogacy for Clinical Outcomes After Radiotherapy for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2023-11-10)PURPOSE: The surrogacy of biochemical recurrence (BCR) for overall survival (OS) in localized prostate cancer remains controversial. Herein, we evaluate the surrogacy of BCR using different surrogacy analytic methods. ... -
Biological aspects of aging that influence response to anticancer treatments.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2021-03-01)PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Cancer is a disease of older adults, where fitness and frailty are a continuum. This aspect poses unique challenges to the management of cancer in this population. In this article, we review the biological ... -
