A Rare Germline HOXB13 Variant Contributes to Risk of Prostate Cancer in Men of African Ancestry.
(ELSEVIER, 2022-05-01)
A rare African ancestry-specific germline deletion variant in HOXB13 (X285K, rs77179853) was recently reported in Martinican men with early-onset prostate cancer. Given the role of HOXB13 germline variation in prostate ...
A non-coding RNA balancing act: miR-346-induced DNA damage is limited by the long non-coding RNA NORAD in prostate cancer.
(BMC, 2022-03-22)
BACKGROUND: miR-346 was identified as an activator of Androgen Receptor (AR) signalling that associates with DNA damage response (DDR)-linked transcripts in prostate cancer (PC). We sought to delineate the impact of miR-346 ...
Phase 1b study of berzosertib and cisplatin in patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-04-07)
Platinum derivatives are commonly used for the treatment of patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, resistance often develops, leading to treatment failure. This expansion cohort (part C2) ...
Olaparib in patients with mCRPC with homologous recombination repair gene alterations: PROfound Asian subset analysis.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2022-05-05)
BACKGROUND: The Phase III PROfound study (NCT02987543) evaluated olaparib versus abiraterone or enzalutamide (control; randomized 2:1 to olaparib or control) in men with homologous recombination repair gene alterations and ...
Exploiting proteomic mass spectrometry analysis to understand the roles of BAF chromatin remodelling complex subunit ARID1A
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-06-09)
AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 1A (ARID1A) is the most frequently mutated subunit of BRG/Brahma-associated factors (BAF) chromatin remodelling complex across diverse cancer types. Although some roles of BAF ...
Mapping the dynamic immune landscape associated with therapeutic response in soft tissue sarcoma
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-10-24)
Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a group of rare and heterogenous cancers of unmet need. In the advanced setting, and following failure of first-line anthracycline therapy, further line therapeutic options offer limited ...
SF3B1 hotspot mutations confer sensitivity to PARP inhibition by eliciting a defective replication stress response.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-08-01)
SF3B1 hotspot mutations are associated with a poor prognosis in several tumor types and lead to global disruption of canonical splicing. Through synthetic lethal drug screens, we identify that SF3B1 mutant (SF3B1MUT) cells ...
Intracellular Antibodies for Drug Discovery and as Drugs of the Future.
(MDPI, 2023-03-16)
The application of antibodies in cells was first shown in the early 1990s, and subsequently, the field of intracellular antibodies has expanded to encompass antibody fragments and their use in target validation and as ...
Terrestrial reproduction and parental care drive rapid evolution in the trade-off between offspring size and number across amphibians.
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2022-01-01)
The trade-off between offspring size and number is central to life history strategies. Both the evolutionary gain of parental care or more favorable habitats for offspring development are predicted to result in fewer, ...
