APOBEC3B-mediated corruption of the tumor cell immunopeptidome induces heteroclitic neoepitopes for cancer immunotherapy.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-02-07)
APOBEC3B, an anti-viral cytidine deaminase which induces DNA mutations, has been implicated as a mediator of cancer evolution and therapeutic resistance. Mutational plasticity also drives generation of neoepitopes, which ...
Proteomic research in sarcomas - current status and future opportunities.
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD- ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2020-04-01)
Sarcomas are a rare group of mesenchymal cancers comprising over 70 different histological subtypes. For the majority of these diseases, the molecular understanding of the basis of their initiation and progression remains ...
Immunological impact of cell death signaling driven by radiation on the tumor microenvironment.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-01)
Therapeutic irradiation of the tumor microenvironment causes differential activation of pro-survival and pro-death pathways in malignant, stromal, endothelial and immune cells, hence causing a profound cellular and biological ...
Faecal neutrophil elastase-antiprotease balance reflects colitis severity.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-03-01)
Given the global burden of diarrheal diseases on healthcare it is surprising how little is known about the drivers of disease severity. Colitis caused by infection and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterised by ...
Transcriptomic analysis of human primary breast cancer identifies fatty acid oxidation as a target for metformin.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-01-21)
BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies suggest that metformin may reduce the incidence of cancer in patients with diabetes and multiple late phase clinical trials assessing the potential of repurposing this drug are underway. ...
Structural basis for the inhibition of cGAS by nucleosomes.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2020-10-23)
The cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate synthase (cGAS) senses invasion of pathogenic DNA and stimulates inflammatory signaling, autophagy, and apoptosis. Organization of host DNA into nucleosomes was ...
Landscapes of cellular phenotypic diversity in breast cancer xenografts and their impact on drug response.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-03-31)
The heterogeneity of breast cancer plays a major role in drug response and resistance and has been extensively characterized at the genomic level. Here, a single-cell breast cancer mass cytometry (BCMC) panel is optimized ...
Metal-based imaging agents: progress towards interrogating neurodegenerative disease.
(ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, 2020-05-21)
Central nervous system (CNS) neurodegeneration is defined by a complex series of pathological processes that ultimately lead to death. The precise etiology of these disorders remains unknown. Recent efforts show that a ...
Inflammatory microenvironment remodelling by tumour cells after radiotherapy.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-04-01)
The development of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is revolutionizing the way we think about cancer treatment. Even so, for most types of cancer, only a minority of patients currently benefit from ICI therapies. Intrinsic ...
Mesenchymal niche remodeling impairs hematopoiesis via stanniocalcin 1 in acute myeloid leukemia.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2020-06-01)
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) disrupts the generation of normal blood cells, predisposing patients to hemorrhage, anemia, and infections. Differentiation and proliferation of residual normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor ...
