Reactivation of p53 by a Cytoskeletal Sensor to Control the Balance Between DNA Damage and Tumor Dissemination.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2015-10-13)
BACKGROUND: Abnormal cell migration and invasion underlie metastasis, and actomyosin contractility is a key regulator of tumor invasion. The links between cancer migratory behavior and DNA damage are poorly understood. ...
Distinctive Behaviors of Druggable Proteins in Cellular Networks.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2015-12-23)
The interaction environment of a protein in a cellular network is important in defining the role that the protein plays in the system as a whole, and thus its potential suitability as a drug target. Despite the importance ...
Hyperbaric oxygen for patients with chronic bowel dysfunction after pelvic radiotherapy (HOT2): a randomised, double-blind, sham-controlled phase 3 trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2016-02-01)
BACKGROUND: Hyperbaric oxygen has been used as a therapy for patients experiencing chronic intestinal syndromes after pelvic radiotherapy for decades, yet the evidence to support the use of this therapy is based almost ...
Assessment of optical CT as a future QA tool for synchrotron x-ray microbeam therapy.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2016-01-07)
Synchrotron microbeam radiation therapy (MRT) is an advanced form of radiotherapy for which it is extremely difficult to provide adequate quality assurance. This may delay or limit its clinical uptake, particularly in the ...
Investigation of In Vivo skin stiffness anisotropy in breast cancer related lymphoedema.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2016-01-04)
There is a limited range of suitable measurement techniques for detecting and assessing breast cancer related lymphoedema (BCRL). This study investigated the suitability of using skin stiffness measurements, with a particular ...
canSAR: an updated cancer research and drug discovery knowledgebase.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2016-01-04)
canSAR (http://cansar.icr.ac.uk) is a publicly available, multidisciplinary, cancer-focused knowledgebase developed to support cancer translational research and drug discovery. canSAR integrates genomic, protein, ...
The Ongoing Challenges of Targeting the Androgen Receptor.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2016-05-01)
Association of genetic susceptibility variants for type 2 diabetes with breast cancer risk in women of European ancestry.
(SPRINGER, 2016-05-01)
PURPOSE: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has been reported to be associated with an elevated risk of breast cancer. It is unclear, however, whether this association is due to shared genetic factors. METHODS: We constructed a genetic ...
Fine-scale mapping of 8q24 locus identifies multiple independent risk variants for breast cancer.
(WILEY, 2016-09-15)
Previous genome-wide association studies among women of European ancestry identified two independent breast cancer susceptibility loci represented by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs13281615 and rs11780156 at 8q24. ...
Common genetic variation associated with increased susceptibility to prostate cancer does not increase risk of radiotherapy toxicity.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-05-10)
BACKGROUND: Numerous germline single-nucleotide polymorphisms increase susceptibility to prostate cancer, some lying near genes involved in cellular radiation response. This study investigated whether prostate cancer ...
