A novel amplitude binning strategy to handle irregular breathing during 4DMRI acquisition: improved imaging for radiotherapy purposes.
(BMC, 2019-05-14)
BACKGROUND: For radiotherapy of abdominal cancer, four-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (4DMRI) is desirable for tumor definition and the assessment of tumor and organ motion. However, irregular breathing gives rise ...
Development of a new fusion-enhanced oncolytic immunotherapy platform based on herpes simplex virus type 1.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-08-10)
BACKGROUND: Oncolytic viruses preferentially replicate in tumors as compared to normal tissue and promote immunogenic cell death and induction of host systemic anti-tumor immunity. HSV-1 was chosen for further development ...
Insight into genetic predisposition to chronic lymphocytic leukemia from integrative epigenomics.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-08-09)
Genome-wide association studies have provided evidence for inherited genetic predisposition to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). To gain insight into the mechanisms underlying CLL risk we analyze chromatin accessibility, ...

The landscape of tyrosine kinase inhibitors in sarcomas: looking beyond pazopanib.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2019-10-30)
Introduction: Tyrosine kinases are key mediators of intracellular signaling cascades and aberrations in these proteins have been implicated in driving oncogenesis through the dysregulation of fundamental cellular processes ...
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 ...
