Phosphorylation-Dependent Assembly of a 14-3-3 Mediated Signaling Complex during Red Blood Cell Invasion by Plasmodium falciparum Merozoites.
(AMER SOC MICROBIOLOGY, 2020-08-18)
Red blood cell (RBC) invasion by Plasmodium merozoites requires multiple steps that are regulated by signaling pathways. Exposure of P. falciparum merozoites to the physiological signal of low K+, as found in blood plasma, ...
A Machine-Learning Tool Concurrently Models Single Omics and Phenome Data for Functional Subtyping and Personalized Cancer Medicine.
(MDPI, 2020-09-30)
One of the major challenges in defining clinically-relevant and less heterogeneous tumor subtypes is assigning biological and/or clinical interpretations to etiological (intrinsic) subtypes. Conventional clustering/subtyping ...
Diagnostic Accuracy and Safety of Coaxial System in Oncology Patients Treated in a Specialist Cancer Center With Prospective Validation Within Clinical Trial Data.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2020-09-04)
BACKGROUND: Image-guided tissue biopsies are critically important in the diagnosis and management of cancer patients. High-yield samples are also vital for biomarker and resistance mechanism discovery through molecular/genomic ...
Intratumoral Transcriptome Heterogeneity Is Associated With Patient Prognosis and Sidedness in Patients With Colorectal Cancer Treated With Anti-EGFR Therapy From the CO.20 Trial.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2020-09-29)
PURPOSE: Metastatic colorectal cancers (mCRCs) assigned to the transit-amplifying (TA) CRCAssigner subtype are more sensitive to anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) therapy. We evaluated the association between ...
A convolutional neural network for contouring metastatic lymph nodes on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance images for assessment of radiotherapy response.
(ELSEVIER, 2020-07-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Retrieving quantitative parameters from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), e.g. for early assessment of radiotherapy treatment response, necessitates contouring regions of interest, which is ...
In vitro characterisation of ultrasound-induced heating effects in the mother and fetus: A clinical perspective.
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2020-09-14)
INTRODUCTION: The quantification of heating effects during exposure to ultrasound is usually based on laboratory experiments in water and is assessed using extrapolated parameters such as the thermal index. In our study, ...
Timing of radiotherapy after radical prostatectomy (RADICALS-RT): a randomised, controlled phase 3 trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-10-31)
BACKGROUND: The optimal timing of radiotherapy after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer is uncertain. We aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of adjuvant radiotherapy versus an observation policy with salvage ...
Inactivating NF1 Mutations Are Enriched in Advanced Breast Cancer and Contribute to Endocrine Therapy Resistance.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-02-01)
PURPOSE: Advanced breast cancer (ABC) has not been subjected to the same degree of molecular scrutiny as early primary cancer. Breast cancer evolves with time and under the selective pressure of treatment, with the potential ...
ABC-transporter upregulation mediates resistance to the CDK7 inhibitors THZ1 and ICEC0942.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-01-01)
The CDK7 inhibitors (CDK7i) ICEC0942 and THZ1, are promising new cancer therapeutics. Resistance to targeted drugs frequently compromises cancer treatment. We sought to identify mechanisms by which cancer cells may become ...
The relative importance of factors predicting outcome for myeloma patients at different ages: results from 3894 patients in the Myeloma XI trial.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-02-01)
Disease factors such as tumor burden and molecular risk affect myeloma patient outcomes as well as patient factors that impact the capacity to deliver treatment. How the relative importance of these factors changes with ...
