Drug delivery across the blood-brain barrier using short-pulse focused ultrasound and microbubbles for the treatment of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-09-01)The blood-brain barrier (BBB) prevents unwanted substances from entering the brain, but also blocks entry of therapeutic agents, posing difficulties for treating brain cancers such as diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) ... -
Drug discovery in advanced prostate cancer: translating biology into therapy.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-10-01)Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is associated with a poor prognosis and poses considerable therapeutic challenges. Recent genetic and technological advances have provided insights into prostate cancer biology ... -

Drugging the Undruggable: Advances on RAS Targeting in Cancer.
(MDPI, 2021-06-10)Around 20% of all malignancies harbour activating mutations in RAS isoforms. Despite this, there is a deficiency of RAS-targeting agents licensed for therapeutic use. The picomolar affinity of RAS for GTP, and the lack of ... -
Dual blockade of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR (AZD8055) and RAS/MEK/ERK (AZD6244) pathways synergistically inhibits rhabdomyosarcoma cell growth in vitro and in vivo.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2013-08-05)PURPOSE: To provide rationale for using phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and/or mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway inhibitors to treat rhabdomyosarcomas, a major cause of pediatric and adolescent cancer deaths. ... -
Dual EZH2 and EHMT2 histone methyltransferase inhibition increases biological efficacy in breast cancer cells.
(BMC, 2015-08-21)BACKGROUND: Many cancers show aberrant silencing of gene expression and overexpression of histone methyltransferases. The histone methyltransferases (HKMT) EZH2 and EHMT2 maintain the repressive chromatin histone methylation ... -
Dual IGF1R/IR inhibitors in combination with GD2-CAR T-cells display a potent anti-tumor activity in diffuse midline glioma H3K27M-mutant.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2022-07-01)BACKGROUND: Diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) H3K27M-mutant, including diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), are pediatric brain tumors associated with grim prognosis. Although GD2-CAR T-cells demonstrated significant ... -
Dual inhibition of EZH2 and G9A/GLP histone methyltransferases by HKMTI-1-005 promotes differentiation of acute myeloid leukemia cells.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2023-03-23)All-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA)-based differentiation therapy of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) represents one of the most clinically effective examples of precision medicine and the first example of targeted oncoprotein ... -
Dual Inhibitors of PARPs and ROCKs.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2018-10-31)Recent network and system biology analyses suggest that most complex diseases are regulated by robust and highly interconnected pathways that could be better modulated by small molecules binding to multiple biological ... -
Dual Targeting of PDGFRα and FGFR1 Displays Synergistic Efficacy in Malignant Rhabdoid Tumors.
(CELL PRESS, 2016-10-25)Subunits of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex are mutated in a significant proportion of human cancers. Malignant rhabdoid tumors (MRTs) are lethal pediatric cancers characterized by a deficiency in the SWI/SNF ... -
Dual-view oblique plane microscopy (dOPM).
(OPTICAL SOC AMER, 2020-12-01)We present a new folded dual-view oblique plane microscopy (OPM) technique termed dOPM that enables two orthogonal views of the sample to be obtained by translating a pair of tilted mirrors in refocussing space. Using a ... -
Ductal Ngn3-expressing progenitors contribute to adult β cell neogenesis in the pancreas.
(CELL PRESS, 2021-11-04)Ductal cells have been proposed as a source of adult β cell neogenesis, but this has remained controversial. By combining lineage tracing, 3D imaging, and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) approaches, we show that ... -
Durable responses to ATR inhibition with ceralasertib in tumors with genomic defects and high inflammation.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2024-01-16)BACKGROUNDPhase 1 study of ATRinhibition alone or with radiation therapy (PATRIOT) was a first-in-human phase I study of the oral ATR (ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related) inhibitor ceralasertib (AZD6738) in advanced ... -
Durable tumor regression in highly refractory metastatic KIT/PDGFRA wild-type GIST following treatment with nivolumab.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2020-01-01)Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a devastating disease, especially in the setting of metastasis. The natural progression of GIST has been significantly altered by the development of small molecule tyrosine kinase ... -
