A potent KRAS macromolecule degrader specifically targeting tumours with mutant KRAS.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-06-26)
Tumour-associated KRAS mutations are the most prevalent in the three RAS-family isoforms and involve many different amino-acids. Therefore, molecules able to interfere with mutant KRAS protein are potentially important for ...
Salmonella-based platform for efficient delivery of functional binding proteins to the cytosol.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-07-03)
Protein-based affinity reagents (like antibodies or alternative binding scaffolds) offer wide-ranging applications for basic research and therapeutic approaches. However, whereas small chemical molecules efficiently reach ...
Targeting folate receptor alpha for cancer treatment.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2016-08-09)
Promising targeted treatments and immunotherapy strategies in oncology and advancements in our understanding of molecular pathways that underpin cancer development have reignited interest in the tumor-associated antigen ...
The role of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex in the response to DNA double strand breaks.
(ELSEVIER, 2020-09-01)
Mammalian cells possess multiple closely related SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complexes. These complexes have been implicated in the cellular response to DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). Evidence suggests that SWI/SNF ...
Histone isoforms and the oncohistone code.
(CURRENT BIOLOGY LTD, 2020-12-04)
Recent studies have highlighted the potential for missense mutations in histones to act as oncogenic drivers, leading to the term 'oncohistones'. While histone proteins are highly conserved, they are encoded by multigene ...
Characterisation of immunoparesis in newly diagnosed myeloma and its impact on progression-free and overall survival in both old and recent myeloma trials.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-08-01)
We measured immunosuppression at myeloma diagnosis and assessed the impact on survival in 5826 UK myeloma trial patients. Polyclonal immunoglobulin levels were below normal in 85% of patients and above normal in only 0.4% ...
General anaesthetic and airway management practice for obstetric surgery in England: a prospective, multicentre observational study.
(WILEY, 2020-09-21)
There are no current descriptions of general anaesthesia characteristics for obstetric surgery, despite recent changes to patient baseline characteristics and airway management guidelines. This analysis of data from the ...
Expression of Mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase Chaperone Gene (COX20) Improves Tolerance to Weak Acid and Oxidative Stress during Yeast Fermentation.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2015-10-01)
INTRODUCTION: Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the micro-organism of choice for the conversion of fermentable sugars released by the pre-treatment of lignocellulosic material into bioethanol. Pre-treatment of lignocellulosic ...
Extrameningeal solitary fibrous tumors-surgery alone or surgery plus perioperative radiotherapy: A retrospective study from the global solitary fibrous tumor initiative in collaboration with the Sarcoma Patients EuroNet.
(WILEY, 2020-07-01)
BACKGROUND: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal malignancy. Although surgery is potentially curative, the local relapse risk is high after marginal resections. Given the lack of prospective clinical trial ...
