Mutational spectrum in a worldwide study of 29,700 families with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations.
(WILEY-HINDAWI, 2018-05-01)
The prevalence and spectrum of germline mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 have been reported in single populations, with the majority of reports focused on White in Europe and North America. The Consortium of Investigators of ...
RavN is a member of a previously unrecognized group of Legionella pneumophila E3 ubiquitin ligases.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2018-02-01)
The eukaryotic ubiquitylation machinery catalyzes the covalent attachment of the small protein modifier ubiquitin to cellular target proteins in order to alter their fate. Microbial pathogens exploit this post-translational ...
DNA repair deficiency sensitizes lung cancer cells to NAD+ biosynthesis blockade.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2018-04-02)
Synthetic lethality is an efficient mechanism-based approach to selectively target DNA repair defects. Excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) deficiency is frequently found in non-small-cell lung cancer ...
Clinical Outcome of Prostate Cancer Patients with Germline DNA Repair Mutations: Retrospective Analysis from an International Study.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-05-01)
BACKGROUND: Germline DNA damage repair gene mutation (gDDRm) is found in >10% of metastatic prostate cancer (mPC). Their prognostic and predictive impact relating to standard therapies is unclear. OBJECTIVE: To determine ...
Sex-specific gene and pathway modeling of inherited glioma risk.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2019-01-01)
BACKGROUND: To date, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 25 risk variants for glioma, explaining 30% of heritable risk. Most histologies occur with significantly higher incidence in males, and this ...
Checkpoints in TNF-Induced Cell Death: Implications in Inflammation and Cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018-01-01)
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a proinflammatory cytokine that coordinates tissue homeostasis by regulating cytokine production, cell survival, and cell death. However, how life and death decisions are made in response to ...
Germline variants in IL4, MGMT and AKT1 are associated with prostate cancer-specific mortality: An analysis of 12,082 prostate cancer cases.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-06-01)
BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a leading cause of mortality and genetic factors can influence tumour aggressiveness. Several germline variants have been associated with PCa-specific mortality (PCSM), but further ...
Bone lesion absorbed dose profiles in patients with metastatic prostate cancer treated with molecular radiotherapy.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2018-01-01)
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to calculate the range of absorbed doses that could potentially be delivered by a variety of radiopharmaceuticals and typical fixed administered activities used for bone pain palliation ...
Inhibited, trapped or adducted: the optimal selective synthetic lethal mix for BRCAness.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-01-01)
Management of Men with Prostate-specific Antigen Failure After Prostate Radiotherapy: The Case Against Early Androgen Deprivation.
(ELSEVIER, 2018-04-01)
In men with prostate-specific antigen failure after radical radiotherapy, androgen deprivation therapy should be delayed until the site of recurrence is known to allow consideration of curative treatment options, to delay ...
