JMJD6 Is a Druggable Oxygenase That Regulates AR-V7 Expression in Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-02-15)Endocrine resistance (EnR) in advanced prostate cancer is fatal. EnR can be mediated by androgen receptor (AR) splice variants, with AR splice variant 7 (AR-V7) arguably the most clinically important variant. In this study, ... -
JNK inhibition reduces lung remodeling and pulmonary fibrotic systemic markers.
(Wiley, 2016-12-01)BACKGROUND: Lung remodeling and pulmonary fibrosis are serious, life-threatening conditions resulting from diseases such as chronic severe asthma and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Preclinical evidence suggests that ... -
Joint associations of a polygenic risk score and environmental risk factors for breast cancer in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-04-01)BACKGROUND: Polygenic risk scores (PRS) for breast cancer can be used to stratify the population into groups at substantially different levels of risk. Combining PRS and environmental risk factors will improve risk prediction; ... -
Joint models for dynamic prediction in localised prostate cancer: a literature review.
(BMC, 2022-09-19)BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer is a very prevalent disease in men. Patients are monitored regularly during and after treatment with repeated assessment of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. Prognosis of localised prostate ... -
Joint radial trajectory correction for accelerated T2 * mapping on an MR-Linac.
(WILEY, 2023-05-27)BACKGROUND: T2 * mapping can characterize tumor hypoxia, which may be associated with resistance to therapy. Acquiring T2 * maps during MR-guided radiotherapy could inform treatment adaptation by, for example, escalating ... -
JunD, not c-Jun, is the AP-1 transcription factor required for Ras-induced lung cancer.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2021-07-08)The AP-1 transcription factor c-Jun is required for Ras-driven tumorigenesis in many tissues and is considered as a classical proto-oncogene. To determine the requirement for c-Jun in a mouse model of K-RasG12D-induced ... -
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-infected primary effusion lymphoma has a gene expression profile
(2003-09-02)Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus is associated with three human tumors: Kaposi’s sarcoma, and the B cell lymphomas, plasmablastic lymphoma associated with multicentric Castleman’s disease, and primary effusion ... -
Ki-67 and outcome in clinically localised prostate cancer: analysis of conservatively treated prostate cancer patients from the Trans-Atlantic Prostate Group study
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2009-03-17)Treatment decisions after diagnosis of clinically localised prostate cancer are difficult due to variability in tumour behaviour. We therefore examined one of the most promising biomarkers in prostate cancer, Ki-67, in a ... -
Ki67 Is an Independent Predictor of Recurrence in the Largest Randomized Trial of 3 Radiation Fractionation Schedules in Localized Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-06-01)PURPOSE: To assess whether the cellular proliferation marker Ki67 provides prognostic information and predicts response to radiation therapy fractionation in patients with localized prostate tumors participating in a ... -
Ki67 Proliferation Index as a Tool for Chemotherapy Decisions During and After Neoadjuvant Aromatase Inhibitor Treatment of Breast Cancer: Results From the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group Z1031 Trial (Alliance).
(2017-04)Purpose To determine the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate in estrogen receptor (ER) -positive primary breast cancer triaged to chemotherapy when the protein encoded by the MKI67 gene (Ki67) level was > 10% after 2 ... -
Kickstarting Immunity in Cold Tumours: Localised Tumour Therapy Combinations With Immune Checkpoint Blockade.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-10-18)Cancer patients with low or absent pre-existing anti-tumour immunity ("cold" tumours) respond poorly to treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICPI). In order to render these patients susceptible to ICPI, initiation ... -
Kinetic energy of He atoms in liquid He-4-He-3 mixtures
(AMER PHYSICAL SOC, 2003-12)Deep inelastic neutron scattering measurements on liquid He-3-He-4 mixtures in the normal phase have been performed on the VESUVIO spectrometer at the ISIS pulsed neutron source at exchanged wave vectors of about qsimilar ... -
Kinetic Optimization of Lysine-Targeting Covalent Inhibitors of HSP72.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2019-12-26)The covalent inhibition mechanism of action, which overcomes competition with high-affinity, high-abundance substrates of challenging protein targets, can deliver effective chemical probes and drugs. The success of this ... -
KIT-Associated Familial GIST Syndrome: Response to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors and Implications for Risk Management.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2022-08-05)Sporadic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are rare tumors, with a median age at diagnosis of 60 years. Familial GISTs are very rare and typically associated with earlier onset, with an average age at diagnosis of 48 ... -
Klotho and the Treatment of Human Malignancies.
(MDPI, 2020-06-23)Klotho was first discovered as an anti-ageing protein linked to a number of age-related disease processes, including cardiovascular, renal, musculoskeletal, and neurodegenerative conditions. Emerging research has also ... -
Klotho: A Major Shareholder in Vascular Aging Enterprises.
(MDPI, 2019-09-19)Accelerated vascular aging is a condition that occurs as a complication of several highly prevalent inflammatory conditions such as chronic kidney disease, cancer, HIV infection and diabetes. Age-associated vascular ... -
Known drug space as a metric in exploring the boundaries of drug-like chemical space
(Elsevier BV, 2009-12-01)In this work, marketed drug compounds (or known drug space) were used as a metric to test the principles of eliminating parent structures of the nitrenium ion (aryl-amine/nitro compounds) as well as sulphur and halogen ... -
KRAS and BRAF mutations in circulating tumour DNA from locally advanced rectal cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-01-23)There are limited data on circulating, cell-free, tumour (ct)DNA analysis in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Digital droplet (dd)PCR was used to investigate KRAS/BRAF mutations in ctDNA from baseline blood samples ... -
