Age as an independent prognostic factor for survival of localised synovial sarcoma patients.
(2015-12)Background We performed a retrospective nationwide study to explore age as a prognostic factor in synovial sarcoma patients.Methods Data on 613 synovial sarcoma patients were obtained from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. ... -
Age, Period and Cohort Analysis of Smoking Prevalence in Iranian Population over a 25-Year Period.
(ACAD MEDICAL SCIENCES I R IRAN, 2021-01-01)BACKGROUND: Current and daily smoking prevalence rates have been have investigated in several cross-sectional studies. However, analyses in terms of age-period-cohort (APC) have not been carried out. We assessed daily ... -
Age- and Tumor Subtype-Specific Breast Cancer Risk Estimates for CHEK2*1100delC Carriers.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2016-08-10)PURPOSE: CHEK2*1100delC is a well-established breast cancer risk variant that is most prevalent in European populations; however, there are limited data on risk of breast cancer by age and tumor subtype, which limits its ... -
Age-associated microenvironmental changes highlight the role of PDGF-C in ER+ breast cancer metastatic relapse.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-04-01)Patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer are at risk of metastatic relapse for decades after primary tumor resection and treatment, a consequence of dormant disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) reawakening ... -
Age-related differences of oncological outcomes in primary extremity soft tissue sarcoma: a multistate model including 6260 patients.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2020-12-01)PURPOSE: No studies extensively compared the young adults (YA, 18-39 years), middle-aged (40-69 years), and elderly (≥70 years) population with primary high-grade extremity soft tissue sarcoma (eSTS). This study aimed to ... -
Age-related sarcoma patient experience: results from a national survey in England.
(BMC, 2018-10-17)BACKGROUND: Sarcomas are rare, heterogeneous tumours affecting patients of any age. Previous surveys describe that sarcoma patients report a significantly worse experience than those with common cancers. Consequently, ... -
Age-specific genome-wide association study in glioblastoma identifies increased proportion of 'lower grade glioma'-like features associated with younger age.
(WILEY, 2018-11-15)Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant brain tumor in the United States. Incidence of GBM increases with age, and younger age-at-diagnosis is significantly associated with improved prognosis. While the relationship ... -
Aggregation tests identify new gene associations with breast cancer in populations with diverse ancestry.
(BMC, 2023-01-26)BACKGROUND: Low-frequency variants play an important role in breast cancer (BC) susceptibility. Gene-based methods can increase power by combining multiple variants in the same gene and help identify target genes. METHODS: ... -
Aggressive fibromatosis response to tamoxifen: lack of correlation between MRI and symptomatic response.
(2018-01)Background One of the commonly used systemic agents for the treatment of aggressive fibromatosis is the anti-oestrogen drug tamoxifen. However, data on efficacy and optimum methods of response assessment are limited, ... -
AhR controls redox homeostasis and shapes the tumor microenvironment in BRCA1-associated breast cancer.
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2019-02-26)Cancer cells have higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) than normal cells, due to genetic and metabolic alterations. An emerging scenario is that cancer cells increase ROS to activate protumorigenic signaling while activating ... -
AI delivers Michaelis constants as fuel for genome-scale metabolic models.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2021-10-20)Michaelis constants (Km) are essential to predict the catalytic rate of enzymes, but are not widely available. A new study in PLOS Biology uses artificial intelligence (AI) to accurately predict Km on a proteome-wide scale, ... -
AKT Inhibition in Solid Tumors With AKT1 Mutations.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2017-07-10)Purpose AKT1 E17K mutations are oncogenic and occur in many cancers at a low prevalence. We performed a multihistology basket study of AZD5363, an ATP-competitive pan-AKT kinase inhibitor, to determine the preliminary ... -
AKT-mTOR signaling modulates the dynamics of IRE1 RNAse activity by regulating ER-mitochondria contacts.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-11-28)Inositol Requiring Enzyme-1 (IRE1) is the most conserved transducer of the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR), a surveillance mechanism that ensures homeostasis of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in eukaryotes. IRE1 activation ... -
Alanine dosimetry in strong magnetic fields: use as a transfer standard in MRI-guided radiotherapy.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2020-06-03)Reference dosimetry in the presence of a strong magnetic field is challenging. Ionisation chambers have shown to be strongly affected by magnetic fields. There is a need for robust and stable detectors in MRI-guided ... -
Alcohol consumption and prostate cancer incidence and progression: A Mendelian randomisation study.
(WILEY, 2017-01-01)Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in developed countries, and is a target for risk reduction strategies. The effects of alcohol consumption on prostate cancer incidence and survival remain unclear, potentially ... -
Alcohol consumption, DNA methylation and colorectal cancer risk: Results from pooled cohort studies and Mendelian randomization analysis.
(WILEY, 2022-07-01)Alcohol consumption is thought to be one of the modifiable risk factors for colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the causality and mechanisms by which alcohol exerts its carcinogenic effect are unclear. We evaluated the ... -
Alcohol Intake and Alcohol-SNP Interactions Associated with Prostate Cancer Aggressiveness.
(MDPI, 2021-02-02)Excessive alcohol intake is a well-known modifiable risk factor for many cancers. It is still unclear whether genetic variants or single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can modify alcohol intake's impact on prostate cancer ... -
ALDEHYDE COMPOUNDS AS INHIBITORS OF DUST MITE GROUP 1 PEPTIDASE ALLERGEN AND THEIR USE
(2012-01-12)The present invention pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds, and more specifically to certain aldehyde compounds of the following formula (A) (for convenience, collectively referred to herein as "ALD ... -
Algorithmic considerations when analysing capture Hi-C data.
(2020-01-01)Chromosome conformation capture methodologies have provided insight into the effect of 3D genomic architecture on gene regulation. Capture Hi-C (CHi-C) is a recent extension of Hi-C that improves the effective resolution ...
