Genome-wide interaction analysis of menopausal hormone therapy use and breast cancer risk among 62,370 women.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-04-13)
Use of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) is associated with increased risk for breast cancer. However, the relevant mechanisms and its interaction with genetic variants are not fully understood. We conducted a genome-wide ...
Identifying local authority need for, and uptake of, school-based physical activity promotion in England-a cluster analysis.
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2022-08-25)
BACKGROUND: School-based physical activity interventions such as The Daily Mile (TDM) are widely promoted in children's physical activity guidance. However, targeting such interventions to areas of greatest need is challenging ...
canSAR: update to the cancer translational research and drug discovery knowledgebase.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2023-01-06)
canSAR (https://cansar.ai) is the largest public cancer drug discovery and translational research knowledgebase. Now hosted in its new home at MD Anderson Cancer Center, canSAR integrates billions of experimental measurements ...
'You give me fever!': are health services ready for immune cell engager therapy in advanced solid malignancies?
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2022-12-01)
Immune cell engager therapeutic strategies using bioengineered molecules to redirect immune cells into tumor are starting to demonstrate promising clinical activity in multiple early phase trials across numerous targets ...
WASp modulates RPA function on single-stranded DNA in response to replication stress and DNA damage.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-06-29)
Perturbation in the replication-stress response (RSR) and DNA-damage response (DDR) causes genomic instability. Genomic instability occurs in Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS), a primary immunodeficiency disorder, yet the ...
Implementing interventions to reduce antibiotic use: a qualitative study in high-prescribing practices.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021-01-23)
BACKGROUND: Trials have shown that delayed antibiotic prescriptions (DPs) and point-of-care C-Reactive Protein testing (POC-CRPT) are effective in reducing antibiotic use in general practice, but these were not typically ...
Radiotherapy to the prostate for men with metastatic prostate cancer in the UK and Switzerland: Long-term results from the STAMPEDE randomised controlled trial.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2022-06-01)
BACKGROUND: STAMPEDE has previously reported that radiotherapy (RT) to the prostate improved overall survival (OS) for patients with newly diagnosed prostate cancer with low metastatic burden, but not those with high-burden ...
COmparing Urolift and Standard Transurethral resection of prostate Ahead of Radiotherapy in men with urinary symptoms secondary to prostate enlargement in Southwest London and North Cumbria (CO-STAR): a study protocol for a randomised feasibility study.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2023-10-06)
INTRODUCTION: Patients undergoing prostate radiotherapy with an enlarged prostate can have short-term and long-term urinary complications. Currently, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the mainstay surgical ...
An Immunogenic Model of KRAS-Mutant Lung Cancer Enables Evaluation of Targeted Therapy and Immunotherapy Combinations.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-10-04)
UNLABELLED: Mutations in oncogenes such as KRAS and EGFR cause a high proportion of lung cancers. Drugs targeting these proteins cause tumor regression but ultimately fail to elicit cures. As a result, there is an intense ...
The role of APOBEC3B in lung tumor evolution and targeted cancer therapy resistance.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2024-01-01)
In this study, the impact of the apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing catalytic subunit-like (APOBEC) enzyme APOBEC3B (A3B) on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-driven lung cancer was assessed. A3B expression in EGFR mutant ...
