Antigen retrieval and clearing for whole-organ immunofluorescence by FLASH.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-11-27)
Advances in light-sheet and confocal microscopy now allow imaging of cleared large biological tissue samples and enable the 3D appreciation of cell and protein localization in their native organ environment. However, the ...
Drugging the Undruggable: Advances on RAS Targeting in Cancer.
(MDPI, 2021-06-10)
Around 20% of all malignancies harbour activating mutations in RAS isoforms. Despite this, there is a deficiency of RAS-targeting agents licensed for therapeutic use. The picomolar affinity of RAS for GTP, and the lack of ...
CD73 controls Myosin II-driven invasion, metastasis, and immunosuppression in amoeboid pancreatic cancer cells.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2023-10-20)
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a very poor prognosis because of its high propensity to metastasize and its immunosuppressive microenvironment. Using a panel of pancreatic cancer cell lines, three-dimensional ...
Molecular Characterization of Circulating Tumor DNA in Pediatric Rhabdomyosarcoma: A Feasibility Study.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2022-10-01)
PURPOSE: Rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are rare neoplasms affecting children and young adults. Efforts to improve patient survival have been undermined by a lack of suitable disease markers. Plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) ...
Cannabinoids in the landscape of cancer.
(SPRINGER, 2021-07-14)
INTRODUCTION: Cannabinoids are a group of terpenophenolic compounds derived from the Cannabis sativa L. plant. There is a growing body of evidence from cell culture and animal studies in support of cannabinoids possessing ...
Identification of a minority population of LMO2+ breast cancer cells that integrate into the vasculature and initiate metastasis.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2022-11-11)
Metastasis is responsible for most breast cancer-related deaths; however, identifying the cellular determinants of metastasis has remained challenging. Here, we identified a minority population of immature THY1+/VEGFA+ ...
A FIJI macro for quantifying pattern in extracellular matrix.
(LIFE SCIENCE ALLIANCE LLC, 2021-03-01)
Diverse extracellular matrix patterns are observed in both normal and pathological tissue. However, most current tools for quantitative analysis focus on a single aspect of matrix patterning. Thus, an automated pipeline ...
Monitoring the Vascular Response and Resistance to Sunitinib in Renal Cell Carcinoma In Vivo with Susceptibility Contrast MRI.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-08-01)
Antiangiogenic therapy is efficacious in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). However, the ability of antiangiogenic drugs to delay tumor progression and extend survival is limited, due to either innate or acquired drug ...
Metabolic biomarkers of response to the AKT inhibitor MK-2206 in pre-clinical models of human colorectal and prostate carcinoma.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-10-30)
BACKGROUND: AKT is commonly overexpressed in tumours and plays an important role in the metabolic reprogramming of cancer. We have used magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to assess whether inhibition of AKT signalling ...
Circulating Tumour DNA in Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer.
(MDPI, 2018-08-29)
Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) is an attractive tool in cancer research, offering many advantages over tissue samples obtained using traditional biopsy methods. There has been increasing interest in its application to ...
