Virtual Biopsy in Soft Tissue Sarcoma. How Close Are We?
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2022-07-01)A shift in radiology to a data-driven specialty has been unlocked by synergistic developments in imaging biomarkers (IB) and computational science. This is advancing the capability to deliver "virtual biopsies" within ... -
Vistusertib (dual m-TORC1/2 inhibitor) in combination with paclitaxel in patients with high-grade serous ovarian and squamous non-small-cell lung cancer.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-07-17)BACKGROUND: We have previously shown that raised p-S6K levels correlate with resistance to chemotherapy in ovarian cancer. We hypothesised that inhibiting p-S6K signalling with the dual m-TORC1/2 inhibitor in patients ... -
Visualization of Tumor-Immune Interaction - Target-Specific Imaging of S100A8/A9 Reveals Pre-Metastatic Niche Establishment.
(IVYSPRING INT PUBL, 2017-06-15)Background Systemic cancer spread is preceded by the establishment of a permissive microenvironment in the target tissue of metastasis - the premetastatic niche. As crucial players in establishment of the pre-metastatic ... -
Visualizing cellular imaging data using PhenoPlot.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2015-01-08)Visualization is essential for data interpretation, hypothesis formulation and communication of results. However, there is a paucity of visualization methods for image-derived data sets generated by high-content analysis ... -
Visualizing the autonomic and somatic innervation of the female pelvis with 3D MR neurography: a feasibility study.
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2020-12-01)BACKGROUND: Treatment of female pelvic malignancies often causes pelvic nerve damage. Magnetic resonance (MR) neurography mapping the female pelvic innervation could aid in treatment planning. PURPOSE: To depict female ... -
Visualizing the complex functions and mechanisms of the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C).
(ROYAL SOC, 2017-11-01)The anaphase promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C) is a large multi-subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that orchestrates cell cycle progression by mediating the degradation of important cell cycle regulators. During the two ... -
Vitamin B5 supports MYC oncogenic metabolism and tumor progression in breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-11-01)Tumors are intrinsically heterogeneous and it is well established that this directs their evolution, hinders their classification and frustrates therapy1-3. Consequently, spatially resolved omics-level analyses are gaining ... -
Vitamin D deficiency in the pathogenesis of leiomyoma and intravascular leiomyomatosis: A case report and review of the literature.
(2021-02)This is a case of recurrent intravascular leiomyomatosis in a pre-menopausal woman of African-Caribbean heritage. She presented in 2006 with multiple uterine leiomyomata, tumour invading the inferior vena cava (IVC) extending ... -
Voltage imaging reveals the dynamic electrical signatures of human breast cancer cells.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-11-11)Cancer cells feature a resting membrane potential (Vm) that is depolarized compared to normal cells, and express active ionic conductances, which factor directly in their pathophysiological behavior. Despite similarities ... -
Volume of Bone Metastasis Assessed with Whole-Body Diffusion-weighted Imaging Is Associated with Overall Survival in Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer.
(RADIOLOGICAL SOC NORTH AMERICA, 2016-07-01)Purpose To determine the correlation between the volume of bone metastasis as assessed with diffusion-weighted (DW) imaging and established prognostic factors in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and ... -
Volumetry of the dominant intraprostatic tumour lesion: intersequence and interobserver differences on multiparametric MRI.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2017-03-01)OBJECTIVE: To establish the interobserver reproducibility of tumour volumetry on individual multiparametric (mp) prostate MRI sequences, validate measurements with histology and determine whether functional to morphological ... -
Voluntary versus ABC breath-hold in the context of VMAT for breast and locoregional lymph node radiotherapy including the internal mammary chain.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2021-02-23)BACKGROUND: Deep-inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) reduces radiation dose to the heart in patients undergoing locoregional breast radiotherapy. In the context of tangential irradiation of the breast/ chest wall, a voluntary ... -
Vps34 PI 3-kinase inactivation enhances insulin sensitivity through reprogramming of mitochondrial metabolism.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-11-27)Vps34 PI3K is thought to be the main producer of phosphatidylinositol-3-monophosphate, a lipid that controls intracellular vesicular trafficking. The organismal impact of systemic inhibition of Vps34 kinase activity is not ... -
Wanna Get Away? Maintenance Treatments and Chemotherapy Holidays in Gynecologic Cancers.
(2019-01)Epithelial ovarian cancer has a very high rate of relapse after primary therapy; historically approximately 70% of patients with a complete clinical response to surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy will relapse and die of the ... -
Warthin Tumor-Like Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma.
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2018-02-01)Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) shows a wide morphologic spectrum, including epithelium with oncocytic or squamous metaplastic changes overlying a prominent cystic architecture, as well as tumor-associated lymphoid tissue. ... -
WASp modulates RPA function on single-stranded DNA in response to replication stress and DNA damage.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-06-29)Perturbation in the replication-stress response (RSR) and DNA-damage response (DDR) causes genomic instability. Genomic instability occurs in Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS), a primary immunodeficiency disorder, yet the ... -
Watch-and-Wait as a Therapeutic Strategy in Rectal Cancer.
