Cancer across the tree of life: cooperation and cheating in multicellularity
(2015-07)Multicellularity is characterized by cooperation among cells for the development, maintenance and reproduction of the multicellular organism. Cancer can be viewed as cheating within this cooperative multicellular system. ... -
Cancer associated fibroblast FAK regulates malignant cell metabolism.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-03-10)Emerging evidence suggests that cancer cell metabolism can be regulated by cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), but the mechanisms are poorly defined. Here we show that CAFs regulate malignant cell metabolism through ... -
Cancer Burden Is Controlled by Mural Cell-β3-Integrin Regulated Crosstalk with Tumor Cells.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-06-11)Enhanced blood vessel (BV) formation is thought to drive tumor growth through elevated nutrient delivery. However, this observation has overlooked potential roles for mural cells in directly affecting tumor growth independent ... -
Cancer cell killing by target antigen engagement with engineered complementary intracellular antibody single domains fused to pro-caspase3.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-06-12)Many tumour causing proteins, such as those expressed after chromosomal translocations or from point mutations, are intracellular and are not enzymes per se amenable to conventional drug targeting. We previously demonstrated ... -
Cancer cell transmission via the placenta.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-01-01)Cancer cells have a parasitic propensity in the primary host but their capacity to transit between individuals is severely restrained by two factors: a lack of a route for viable cell transfer and immune recognition in ... -
Cancer drivers and clonal dynamics in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia subtypes
(2021-04-15)To obtain a comprehensive picture of composite genetic drivers events and clonal dynamics in subtypes of paediatric acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) we analysed tumour-normal whole genome sequencing and expression data ... -
Cancer drivers and clonal dynamics in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia subtypes.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-11-09)To obtain a comprehensive picture of composite genetic driver events and clonal dynamics in subtypes of paediatric acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) we analysed tumour-normal whole genome sequencing and expression data ... -
Cancer Evolution: A Multifaceted Affair.
(American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), 2024-01-12)UNLABELLED: Cancer cells adapt and survive through the acquisition and selection of molecular modifications. This process defines cancer evolution. Building on a theoretical framework based on heritable genetic changes has ... -
Cancer genetics, precision prevention and a call to action.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-09-01)More than 15 years have passed since the identification, through linkage, of 'first-wave' susceptibility genes for common cancers (BRCA1, BRCA2, MLH1 and MSH2). These genes have strong frequency-penetrance profiles, such ... -
Cancer heterogeneity and imaging.
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD- ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2017-04-01)There is interest in identifying and quantifying tumor heterogeneity at the genomic, tissue pathology and clinical imaging scales, as this may help better understand tumor biology and may yield useful biomarkers for guiding ... -
Cancer incidence and mortality in 23 000 patients with type 1 diabetes in the UK: Long-term follow-up.
(WILEY, 2023-08-01)Type 2 diabetes is associated with raised risk of several cancers, but for type 1 diabetes risk data are fewer and inconsistent We assembled a cohort of 23 473 UK patients with insulin-treated diabetes diagnosed at ages ... -
Cancer progression: A journey through the past (with the same stops)?
(WILEY, 2021-05-04) -
Cancer Risks in Patients Treated With Growth Hormone in Childhood: The SAGhE European Cohort Study.
(ENDOCRINE SOC, 2017-05-01)CONTEXT: Growth hormone (GH) is prescribed for an increasing range of indications, but there has been concern that it might raise cancer risk. Published data are limited. OBJECTIVE: To examine cancer risks in relation to ... -
Cancer Variant Interpretation Group UK (CanVIG-UK): an exemplar national subspecialty multidisciplinary network.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-12-01)Advances in technology have led to a massive expansion in the capacity for genomic analysis, with a commensurate fall in costs. The clinical indications for genomic testing have evolved markedly; the volume of clinical ... -
Cancer-associated FBXW7 loss is synthetic lethal with pharmacological targeting of CDC7.
(WILEY, 2023-10-22)The F-box and WD repeat domain containing 7 (FBXW7) tumour suppressor gene encodes a substrate-recognition subunit of Skp, cullin, F-box (SCF)-containing complexes. The tumour-suppressive role of FBXW7 is ascribed to its ... -
Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Suppress CD8+ T-cell Infiltration and Confer Resistance to Immune-Checkpoint Blockade.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-08-16)UNLABELLED: Immune-checkpoint blockade (ICB) promotes antitumor immune responses and can result in durable patient benefit. However, response rates in breast cancer patients remain modest, stimulating efforts to discover ... -
CancerGD: a resource for identifying and interpreting genetic dependencies in cancer
(2016-10-26)Abstract Genes whose function is selectively essential in the presence of cancer associated genetic aberrations represent promising targets for the development of precision therapeutics. Here we present CancerGD ( ... -
