Identification of highly penetrant Rb-related synthetic lethal interactions in triple negative breast cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-10-25)
Although defects in the RB1 tumour suppressor are one of the more common driver alterations found in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), therapeutic approaches that exploit this have not been identified. By integrating ...
Genome-wide and high-density CRISPR-Cas9 screens identify point mutations in PARP1 causing PARP inhibitor resistance.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-05-01)
Although PARP inhibitors (PARPi) target homologous recombination defective tumours, drug resistance frequently emerges, often via poorly understood mechanisms. Here, using genome-wide and high-density CRISPR-Cas9 ...
Mechanism-based screen establishes signalling framework for DNA damage-associated G1 checkpoint response.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2012-02-27)
DNA damage activates checkpoint controls which block progression of cells through the division cycle. Several different checkpoints exist that control transit at different positions in the cell cycle. A role for checkpoint ...
Combined linkage and association analysis of classical Hodgkin lymphoma.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-04-17)
The heritability of classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) has yet to be fully deciphered. We report a family with five members diagnosed with nodular sclerosis cHL. Genetic analysis of the family provided evidence of linkage ...
Multiple myeloma: family history and mortality in second primary cancers.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-08-07)
Geometric and dosimetric evaluations of atlas-based segmentation methods of MR images in the head and neck region.
(IOP Publishing, 2018-07-11)
Owing to its excellent soft-tissue contrast, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has found an increased application in radiation therapy (RT). By harnessing these properties for treatment planning, automated segmentation methods ...
CNS cancer immunity cycle and strategies to target this for glioblastoma.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-04-27)
Immunotherapeutics have revolutionized the management of solid malignancies over the last few years. Nevertheless, despite relative successes of checkpoint inhibitors in numerous solid tumour types, success in tumours of ...
Splicing dysregulation as a driver of breast cancer.
(BIOSCIENTIFICA LTD, 2018-09-01)
Breast cancer is known to be a heterogeneous disease driven by a large repertoire of molecular abnormalities, which contribute to its diverse clinical behaviour. Despite the success of targeted therapy approaches for breast ...
Development and external validation of nomograms in oropharyngeal cancer patients with known HPV-DNA status: a European Multicentre Study (OroGrams).
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2018-06-01)
BACKGROUND: The proxy marker for human papillomavirus (HPV), p16, is included in the new AJCC 8th/UICC 8th staging system, but due to incongruence between p16 status and HPV infection, single biomarker evaluation could ...
Off-Target V(D)J Recombination Drives Lymphomagenesis and Is Escalated by Loss of the Rag2 C Terminus
(Elsevier BV, 2015-09-01)
Genome-wide analysis of thymic lymphomas from Tp53(-/-) mice with wild-type or C-terminally truncated Rag2 revealed numerous off-target, RAG-mediated DNA rearrangements. A significantly higher fraction of these errors ...
