Activation of Aurora-A Kinase by Protein Partner Binding and Phosphorylation Are Independent and Synergistic
(AMER SOC BIOCHEMISTRY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INC, 2012-01-06)
Protein kinases are activated by phosphorylation and by the binding of activator proteins. The interplay of these two factors is incompletely understood. We applied energetic analysis to this question and characterized the ...
Patient-Level DNA Damage and Repair Pathway Profiles and Prognosis After Prostatectomy for High-Risk Prostate Cancer.
(2016-04)
Importance A substantial number of patients diagnosed with high-risk prostate cancer are at risk for metastatic progression after primary treatment. Better biomarkers are needed to identify patients at the highest risk to ...
Contrast-Enhanced CT Density Predicts Response to Sunitinib Therapy in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Patients.
(2017-08)
The first-line therapy in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), sunitinib, exhibits an objective response rate of approximately 30%. Therapeutic alternatives such as other tyrosine kinase inhibitors, VEGF inhibitors, or ...
Optical photon transport in powdered-phosphor scintillators. Part II. Calculation of single-scattering transport parameters
(AMER ASSOC PHYSICISTS MEDICINE AMER INST PHYSICS, 2013-04)
Purpose: Monte Carlo methods based on the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) have previously been used to model light transport in powdered-phosphor scintillator screens. Physically motivated guesses or, alternatively, the ...
Genetic Tracing via DNGR-1 Expression History Defines Dendritic Cells as a Hematopoietic Lineage
(CELL PRESS, 2013-08-15)
Mononuclear phagocytes are classified as macrophages or dendritic cells (DCs) based on cell morphology, phenotype, or select functional properties. However, these attributes are not absolute and often overlap, leading to ...
Applying natural language processing and machine learning techniques to patient experience feedback: a systematic review.
Objectives Unstructured free-text patient feedback contains rich information, and analysing these data manually would require a lot of personnel resources which are not available in most healthcare organisations.To undertake ...
Urological referral of asymptomatic men in general practice in England
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2008-04-01)
The Prostate Cancer Risk Management Programme (PCRMP) launched in November 2002 provides guidelines for general practitioners (GPs) on age-specific prostate-specific antigen (PSA) cutoff levels in asymptomatic men. The ...
The ICR639 CPG NGS validation series: A resource to assess analytical sensitivity of cancer predisposition gene testing.
(2018-01)
The analytical sensitivity of a next generation sequencing (NGS) test reflects the ability of the test to detect real sequence variation. The evaluation of analytical sensitivity relies on the availability of gold-standard, ...
