Kinetic Optimization of Lysine-Targeting Covalent Inhibitors of HSP72.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2019-12-26)
The covalent inhibition mechanism of action, which overcomes competition with high-affinity, high-abundance substrates of challenging protein targets, can deliver effective chemical probes and drugs. The success of this ...
Real-time ex vivo perfusion of human lymph nodes invaded by cancer (REPLICANT): a feasibility study.
(WILEY, 2020-03-01)
Understanding how breast cancer (BC) grows in axillary lymph nodes (ALNs), and refining how therapies might halt that process, is clinically important. However, modelling the complex ALN microenvironment is difficult, and ...
Menstrual cycle associated changes in hormone-related gene expression in oestrogen receptor positive breast cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-11-15)
The major changes in hormone levels that occur through the menstrual cycle have been postulated to affect the expression of hormone-regulated and proliferation-associated genes (PAGs) in premenopausal ER+ breast cancer. ...
Biomarker-guided trials: Challenges in practice.
(ELSEVIER INC, 2019-12-01)
Biomarker-guided trials have drawn considerable attention as they promise to lead to improvements in the benefit-risk ratio of treatments and enhanced opportunities for drug development. A variety of such designs have been ...
Removing rician bias in diffusional kurtosis of the prostate using real-data reconstruction.
(WILEY, 2020-06-01)
PURPOSE: To compare prostate diffusional kurtosis imaging (DKI) metrics generated using phase-corrected real data with those generated using magnitude data with and without noise compensation (NC). METHODS: Diffusion-weighted ...
A prospective observational study of on-treatment plasma homocysteine levels as a biomarker of toxicity, depression and vitamin supplementation lead-in time pre pemetrexed, in patients with non-small cell lung cancer and malignant mesothelioma.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2019-11-25)
OBJECTIVES: Vitamin supplementation reduces pemetrexed toxicity. Raised plasma homocysteine reflects deficiency in vitamin B12 and folate, and is suppressed by supplementation. This observational study of 112 patients ...
Immunological impact of cell death signaling driven by radiation on the tumor microenvironment.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-01)
Therapeutic irradiation of the tumor microenvironment causes differential activation of pro-survival and pro-death pathways in malignant, stromal, endothelial and immune cells, hence causing a profound cellular and biological ...
Topological Tumor Graphs: A Graph-Based Spatial Model to Infer Stromal Recruitment for Immunosuppression in Melanoma Histology.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-03-01)
Despite the advent of immunotherapy, metastatic melanoma represents an aggressive tumor type with a poor survival outcome. The successful application of immunotherapy requires in-depth understanding of the biological basis ...
Faecal neutrophil elastase-antiprotease balance reflects colitis severity.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-03-01)
Given the global burden of diarrheal diseases on healthcare it is surprising how little is known about the drivers of disease severity. Colitis caused by infection and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterised by ...
Development and external validation of a dynamic prognostic nomogram for primary extremity soft tissue sarcoma survivors.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Prognostic nomograms for patients with extremity soft tissue sarcoma (eSTS) typically predict survival or the occurrence of local recurrence or distant metastasis at time of surgery. Our aim was to develop and ...
