The Intracranial Distribution of Gliomas in Relation to Exposure From Mobile Phones: Analyses From the INTERPHONE Study.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2016-12-01)When investigating the association between brain tumors and use of mobile telephones, accurate data on tumor position are essential, due to the highly localized absorption of energy in the human brain from the radio-frequency ... -
The Jun-dependent axon regeneration gene program: Jun promotes regeneration over plasticity.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2022-04-22)The regeneration-associated gene (RAG) expression program is activated in injured peripheral neurons after axotomy and enables long-distance axon re-growth. Over 1000 genes are regulated, and many transcription factors are ... -
The kinase polypharmacology landscape of clinical PARP inhibitors.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-02-17)Polypharmacology plays an important role in defining response and adverse effects of drugs. For some mechanisms, experimentally mapping polypharmacology is commonplace, although this is typically done within the same protein ... -
The Ku-binding motif is a conserved module for recruitment and stimulation of non-homologous end-joining proteins.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-04-11)The Ku-binding motif (KBM) is a short peptide module first identified in APLF that we now show is also present in Werner syndrome protein (WRN) and in Modulator of retrovirus infection homologue (MRI). We also identify a ... -
The landscape of RNA polymerase II-associated chromatin interactions in prostate cancer.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2020-08-03)Transcriptional dysregulation is a hallmark of prostate cancer (PCa). We mapped the RNA polymerase II-associated (RNA Pol II-associated) chromatin interactions in normal prostate cells and PCa cells. We discovered thousands ... -
The landscape of tyrosine kinase inhibitors in sarcomas: looking beyond pazopanib.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2019-10-30)Introduction: Tyrosine kinases are key mediators of intracellular signaling cascades and aberrations in these proteins have been implicated in driving oncogenesis through the dysregulation of fundamental cellular processes ... -
The level of hypotension during hemorrhagic shock is a major determinant of the post-resuscitation systemic inflammatory response: an experimental study.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2008-07-18)BACKGROUND: To evaluate whether the level of hypotension during hemorrhagic shock may influence the oxidative and inflammatory responses developed during post-ischemic resuscitation. METHODS: Fifteen rabbits were equally ... -
The Lineage Determining Factor GRHL2 Collaborates with FOXA1 to Establish a Targetable Pathway in Endocrine Therapy-Resistant Breast Cancer.
(CELL PRESS, 2019-10-22)Notwithstanding the positive clinical impact of endocrine therapies in estrogen receptor-alpha (ERα)-positive breast cancer, de novo and acquired resistance limits the therapeutic lifespan of existing drugs. Taking the ... -
The long non-coding RNA HOTAIR is transcriptionally activated by HOXA9 and is an independent prognostic marker in patients with malignant glioma.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-03-20)The lncRNA HOTAIR has been implicated in several human cancers. Here, we evaluated the molecular alterations and upstream regulatory mechanisms of HOTAIR in glioma, the most common primary brain tumors, and its clinical ... -
The long non-coding RNA MYCNOS-01 regulates MYCN protein levels and affects growth of MYCN-amplified rhabdomyosarcoma and neuroblastoma cells.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2018-02-21)BACKGROUND: MYCN is amplified in small cell lung cancers and several pediatric tumors, including alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas and neuroblastomas. MYCN protein is known to play a key oncogenic role in both alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas ... -
The lung cancers: staging and response, CT, 18F-FDG PET/CT, MRI, DWI: review and new perspectives.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2023-08-01)Lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer deaths in both sexes combined. Recent years have seen major advances in the diagnostic and treatment options for patients with non-small-cell ... -
The management of desmoid tumours: A joint global consensus-based guideline approach for adult and paediatric patients.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2020-03-01)Desmoid tumor (DT; other synonymously used terms: Desmoid-type fibromatosis, aggressive fibromatosis) is a rare and locally aggressive monoclonal, fibroblastic proliferation characterised by a variable and often unpredictable ... -
The mechanism of replication stalling and recovery within repetitive DNA.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-07-19)Accurate chromosomal DNA replication is essential to maintain genomic stability. Genetic evidence suggests that certain repetitive sequences impair replication, yet the underlying mechanism is poorly defined. Replication ... -
The melanoma-specific graded prognostic assessment does not adequately discriminate prognosis in a modern population with brain metastases from malignant melanoma.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2015-11-03)BACKGROUND: The melanoma-specific graded prognostic assessment (msGPA) assigns patients with brain metastases from malignant melanoma to 1 of 4 prognostic groups. It was largely derived using clinical data from patients ... -
The midbody interactome reveals unexpected roles for PP1 phosphatases in cytokinesis.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-10-04)The midbody is an organelle assembled at the intercellular bridge between the two daughter cells at the end of mitosis. It controls the final separation of the daughter cells and has been involved in cell fate, polarity, ... -
The Mitotic Checkpoint Complex Requires an Evolutionary Conserved Cassette to Bind and Inhibit Active APC/C.
