EGFR feedback-inhibition by Ran-binding protein 6 is disrupted in cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-12-11)
Transport of macromolecules through the nuclear pore by importins and exportins plays a critical role in the spatial regulation of protein activity. How cancer cells co-opt this process to promote tumorigenesis remains ...
Objective, Quantitative, Data-Driven Assessment of Chemical Probes.
(CELL PRESS, 2018-02-15)
Chemical probes are essential tools for understanding biological systems and for target validation, yet selecting probes for biomedical research is rarely based on objective assessment of all potential compounds. Here, we ...
Young adults: a unique group in cancer epidemiological research.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-02-01)
Vps34 PI 3-kinase inactivation enhances insulin sensitivity through reprogramming of mitochondrial metabolism.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-11-27)
Vps34 PI3K is thought to be the main producer of phosphatidylinositol-3-monophosphate, a lipid that controls intracellular vesicular trafficking. The organismal impact of systemic inhibition of Vps34 kinase activity is not ...
Smoking and risk of breast cancer in the Generations Study cohort.
(BMC, 2017-11-22)
BACKGROUND: Plausible biological reasons exist regarding why smoking could affect breast cancer risk, but epidemiological evidence is inconsistent. METHODS: We used serial questionnaire information from the Generations ...
Can routine data be used to support cancer clinical trials? A historical baseline on which to build: retrospective linkage of data from the TACT (CRUK 01/001) breast cancer trial and the National Cancer Data Repository.
(BMC, 2017-11-23)
BACKGROUND: Randomised clinical trials (RCTs) are the gold standard for evaluating new cancer treatments. They are, however, expensive to conduct, particularly where long-term follow-up of participants is required. Tracking ...
Intrinsic subtypes and benefit from postmastectomy radiotherapy in node-positive premenopausal breast cancer patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy - results from two independent randomized trials.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2018-01-01)
BACKGROUND: The study of the intrinsic molecular subtypes of breast cancer has revealed differences among them in terms of prognosis and response to chemotherapy and endocrine therapy. However, the ability of intrinsic ...
SF3B1 hotspot mutations confer sensitivity to PARP inhibition by eliciting a defective replication stress response.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-08-01)
SF3B1 hotspot mutations are associated with a poor prognosis in several tumor types and lead to global disruption of canonical splicing. Through synthetic lethal drug screens, we identify that SF3B1 mutant (SF3B1MUT) cells ...
Oral beclomethasone dipropionate is an effective treatment for immune checkpoint inhibitor induced colitis.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2022-09-01)
INTRODUCTION: Systemic corticosteroids are the mainstay of treatment for immune checkpoint inhibitor induced (CPI) colitis but are associated with complications including life-threatening infection. The topically acting ...
Branchpoint translocation by fork remodelers as a general mechanism of R-loop removal.
(CELL PRESS, 2022-12-06)
Co-transcriptional R loops arise from stalling of RNA polymerase, leading to the formation of stable DNA:RNA hybrids. Unresolved R loops promote genome instability but are counteracted by helicases and nucleases. Here, we ...
