Clinical practice guidelines for the diagnosis and surveillance of BAP1 tumour predisposition syndrome.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2023-11-01)
BRCA1-associated protein-1 (BAP1) is a recognised tumour suppressor gene. Germline BAP1 pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants are associated with predisposition to multiple tumours, including uveal melanoma, malignant ...
A FIJI macro for quantifying pattern in extracellular matrix.
(LIFE SCIENCE ALLIANCE LLC, 2021-03-01)
Diverse extracellular matrix patterns are observed in both normal and pathological tissue. However, most current tools for quantitative analysis focus on a single aspect of matrix patterning. Thus, an automated pipeline ...
Genome-wide association study of lung adenocarcinoma in East Asia and comparison with a European population.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-05-26)
Lung adenocarcinoma is the most common type of lung cancer. Known risk variants explain only a small fraction of lung adenocarcinoma heritability. Here, we conducted a two-stage genome-wide association study of lung ...
HSP90-CDC37-PP5 forms a structural platform for kinase dephosphorylation.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-11-29)
Activation of client protein kinases by the HSP90 molecular chaperone system is affected by phosphorylation at multiple sites on HSP90, the kinase-specific co-chaperone CDC37, and the kinase client itself. Removal of ...
Images and images: Current roles of therapeutic radiographers.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2022-11-01)
INTRODUCTION: Therapeutic radiography is a small profession and has adapted in response to advanced techniques. An increase in on-line adaptive MRI-guided radiotherapy (MRIgRT) will require role extension for therapeutic ...
Genetic variation in ST6GAL1 is a determinant of capecitabine and oxaliplatin induced hand-foot syndrome.
(WILEY, 2022-09-15)
Cancer patients treated with capecitabine and oxaliplatin (XELOX) often develop hand-foot syndrome (HFS) or palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia. Genetic variation in ST6GAL1 is a risk factor for type-2 diabetes (T2D), a ...
Does mainstream BRCA testing affect surgical decision-making in newly-diagnosed breast cancer patients?
(Elsevier BV, 2023-02-01)
BACKGROUND: Germline pathogenic variants mutations) in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes cause an increased risk of breast cancer and ovarian cancer. Mainstream cancer genetic testing (MCG) was introduced for breast cancer patients ...
On the road to improved outcomes by capturing leiomyosarcoma patients' views.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2022-10-03)
An international collaborative project set up as a 'priority setting partnership' used a questionnaire to capture the views of patients, carers and clinicians about the sarcoma research agenda. Responses from 25 patients ...
Characterization of proteome-size scaling by integrative omics reveals mechanisms of proliferation control in cancer.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2023-01-25)
Almost all living cells maintain size uniformity through successive divisions. Proteins that over and underscale with size can act as rheostats, which regulate cell cycle progression. Using a multiomic strategy, we leveraged ...
Representative Sequencing: Unbiased Sampling of Solid Tumor Tissue.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-05-05)
Although thousands of solid tumors have been sequenced to date, a fundamental under-sampling bias is inherent in current methodologies. This is caused by a tissue sample input of fixed dimensions (e.g., 6 mm biopsy), which ...
