On the Co-Dependence of Cell Morphology and Biochemistry in Cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-03-25)Shape and form are fundamental to biology. Acting at all scales, from the organismal to the molecular, morphology defines the functionality of biological structures. It is obvious that chemical events in the cell, influence ... -
On the Comparative Suitability of Strain Relaxation and Stress Relaxation Compression for Ultrasound Poroelastic Tissue Characterization
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-05-10)<jats:p>Poroelastic tissue strain imaging measures the time-varying and spatially varying deformation of a soft-tissue matrix during compression as the tissue fluid flows out of the compartmental boundaries. With the help ... -
On the origins of three-dimensionality in drug-like molecules.
(2016-09)Aim Many medicinal chemistry-relevant structures and core scaffolds tend toward geometric planarity, which hampers the optimization of physicochemical properties desirable in drug-like molecules. As challenging drug target ... -
On the potential of multi-spectral x-ray and photoacoustic imaging to facilitate gold nanoparticle mediated dose-enhanced radiotherapy
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-07-31) -
On the road to improved outcomes by capturing leiomyosarcoma patients' views.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2022-10-03)An international collaborative project set up as a 'priority setting partnership' used a questionnaire to capture the views of patients, carers and clinicians about the sarcoma research agenda. Responses from 25 patients ... -
On-treatment immune prognostic score for patients with relapsed and/or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma treated with immunotherapy.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2021-06-01)BACKGROUND: Previous studies have suggested that inflammatory markers (neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and fibrinogen) are prognostic biomarkers in patients with a variety of solid cancers, ... -
Oncogenic KRAS Regulates Tumor Cell Signaling via Stromal Reciprocation.
(CELL PRESS, 2016-06-16)Oncogenic mutations regulate signaling within both tumor cells and adjacent stromal cells. Here, we show that oncogenic KRAS (KRAS(G12D)) also regulates tumor cell signaling via stromal cells. By combining cell-specific ... -
Oncogenic KRAS sensitizes premalignant, but not malignant cells, to Noxa-dependent apoptosis through the activation of the MEK/ERK pathway.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2015-05-10)KRAS is mutated in about 20-25% of all human cancers and especially in pancreatic, lung and colorectal tumors. Oncogenic KRAS stimulates several pro-survival pathways, but it also triggers the trans-activation of pro-apoptotic ... -
Oncogenic RAC1 and NRAS drive resistance to endoplasmic reticulum stress through MEK/ERK signalling.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-04-01)Cancer cells are able to survive under conditions that cause endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER-stress), and can adapt to this stress by upregulating cell-survival signalling pathways and down-regulating apoptotic pathways. ... -
Oncogenic RAS Signaling Promotes Tumor Immunoresistance by Stabilizing PD-L1 mRNA.
(2017-12-12)The immunosuppressive protein PD-L1 is upregulated in many cancers and contributes to evasion of the host immune system. The relative importance of the tumor microenvironment and cancer cell-intrinsic signaling in the ... -
Oncologically Relevant Findings Reporting and Data System (ONCO-RADS): Guidelines for the Acquisition, Interpretation, and Reporting of Whole-Body MRI for Cancer Screening.
(RADIOLOGICAL SOC NORTH AMERICA (RSNA), 2021-06-01)Acknowledging the increasing number of studies describing the use of whole-body MRI for cancer screening, and the increasing number of examinations being performed in patients with known cancers, an international ... -
Oncology-Led Early Identification of Nutritional Risk: A Pragmatic, Evidence-Based Protocol (PRONTO).
(MDPI, 2023-01-06)Nutritional issues, including malnutrition, low muscle mass, sarcopenia (i.e., low muscle mass and strength), and cachexia (i.e., weight loss characterized by a continuous decline in skeletal muscle mass, with or without ... -
Oncolytic Herpes Simplex Virus Inhibits Pediatric Brain Tumor Migration and Invasion.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-06-16)Pediatric high-grade glioma (pHGG) and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) are invasive tumors with poor survival. Oncolytic virotherapy, initially devised as a direct cytotoxic treatment, is now also known to act via ... -
Oncolytic Immunotherapy for Bladder Cancer Using Coxsackie A21 Virus.
(CELL PRESS, 2018-06-29)As a clinical setting in which local live biological therapy is already well established, non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) presents intriguing opportunities for oncolytic virotherapy. Coxsackievirus A21 (CVA21) ... -
Oncolytic reovirus as a combined antiviral and anti-tumour agent for the treatment of liver cancer.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-03-01)OBJECTIVE: Oncolytic viruses (OVs) represent promising, proinflammatory cancer treatments. Here, we explored whether OV-induced innate immune responses could simultaneously inhibit HCV while suppressing hepatocellular ... -
Oncolytic Reovirus-Mediated Recruitment of Early Innate Immune Responses Reverses Immunotherapy Resistance in Prostate Tumors.
(CELL PRESS, 2021-03-26)Prostate cancers are considered "cold" tumors characterized by minimal T cell infiltrates, absence of a type I interferon (IFN) signature, and the presence of immunosuppressive cells. This non-inflamed phenotype is likely ... -
Oncolytic vaccinia virus as a vector for therapeutic sodium iodide symporter gene therapy in prostate cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-04-01)Oncolytic strains of vaccinia virus are currently in clinical development with clear evidence of safety and promising signs of efficacy. Addition of therapeutic genes to the viral genome may increase the therapeutic efficacy ... -
Oncolytic vaccinia virus combined with radiotherapy induces apoptotic cell death in sarcoma cells by down-regulating the inhibitors of apoptosis.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2016-12-06)Advanced extremity melanoma and sarcoma present a significant therapeutic challenge, requiring multimodality therapy to treat or even palliate disease. These aggressive tumours are relatively chemo-resistant, therefore new ... -
Oncolytic virotherapy induced CSDE1 neo-antigenesis restricts VSV replication but can be targeted by immunotherapy.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-03-26)In our clinical trials of oncolytic vesicular stomatitis virus expressing interferon beta (VSV-IFNβ), several patients achieved initial responses followed by aggressive relapse. We show here that VSV-IFNβ-escape tumors ...
