Triggering anti-GBM immune response with EGFR-mediated photoimmunotherapy.
(BMC, 2022-01-21)
BACKGROUND: Surgical resection followed by chemo-radiation postpones glioblastoma (GBM) progression and extends patient survival, but these tumours eventually recur. Multimodal treatment plans combining intraoperative ...
Common variants in breast cancer risk loci predispose to distinct tumor subtypes.
(BMC, 2022-01-04)
BACKGROUND: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple common breast cancer susceptibility variants. Many of these variants have differential associations by estrogen receptor (ER) status, but how these ...
Germline mismatch repair (MMR) gene analyses from English NHS regional molecular genomics laboratories 1996-2020: development of a national resource of patient-level genomics laboratory records.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2022-12-26)
OBJECTIVE: To describe national patterns of National Health Service (NHS) analysis of mismatch repair (MMR) genes in England using individual-level data submitted to the National Disease Registration Service (NDRS) by the ...
A structural biology community assessment of AlphaFold2 applications.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2022-11-01)
Most proteins fold into 3D structures that determine how they function and orchestrate the biological processes of the cell. Recent developments in computational methods for protein structure predictions have reached the ...
Shedding a Light on the Challenges of Adolescents and Young Adults with Rhabdomyosarcoma.
(MDPI, 2022-12-09)
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a typical tumour of childhood but can occur at any age. Several studies have reported that adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients with RMS have poorer survival than do younger patients. This ...
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 ...

The thirteenth annual workshop of the European Network for Breast Development and Cancer (ENBDC) Laboratories Annual Workshop took place on the 28-30 April 2022 in Weggis, Switzerland and focused on methods in mammary gland ...
'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 ...
