Defining variant-resistant epitopes targeted by SARS-CoV-2 antibodies: A global consortium study.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2021-10-22)Antibody-based therapeutics and vaccines are essential to combat COVID-19 morbidity and mortality after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Multiple mutations in SARS-CoV-2 that could ... -
A definitive prognostication system for patients with thoracic malignancies diagnosed with COVID-19: an update from the TERAVOLT registry.
(2022-01-24)<h4>Background</h4>Patients with thoracic malignancies are at increased risk for mortality from Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and large number of intertwined prognostic variables have been identified so far.<h4>Met ... -
Definitive study shows no association between ARID1A mutation status and clinical outcome in endometriosis-related ovarian cancers‡.
(WILEY, 2022-06-29)The ARID1A tumour suppressor protein is a component of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex, which is mutated in approximately 20% of all human cancers. ARID1A mutational status is considered to hold prognostic ... -
Degron-tagged reporters probe membrane topology and enable the specific labelling of membrane-wrapped structures.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-08-02)Visualization of specific organelles in tissues over background fluorescence can be challenging, especially when reporters localize to multiple structures. Instead of trying to identify proteins enriched in specific ... -
Delayed APC/C activation extends the first mitosis of mouse embryos.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-08-29)The correct temporal regulation of mitosis underpins genomic stability because it ensures the alignment of chromosomes on the mitotic spindle that is required for their proper segregation to the two daughter cells. Crucially, ... -
Delayed contrast dynamics as marker of regional impairment in pulmonary fibrosis using 5D MRI - a pilot study.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2020-09-01)OBJECTIVE: To analyse delayed contrast dynamics of fibrotic lesions in interstitial lung disease (ILD) using five dimensional (5D) MRI and to correlate contrast dynamics with disease severity. METHODS: 20 patients (mean ... -
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.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 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 ... -
