Common and unique transcriptional responses to dietary restriction and loss of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) in mice.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2018-05-20)
Dietary restriction (DR) is the most widely studied non-genetic intervention capable of extending lifespan across multiple taxa. Modulation of genes, primarily within the insulin/insulin-like growth factor signalling (IIS) ...
Dysregulation of Alternative Poly-adenylation as a Potential Player in Autism Spectrum Disorder.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2017-09-13)
We present here the hypothesis that alternative poly-adenylation (APA) is dysregulated in the brains of individuals affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), due to disruptions in the calcium signaling networks. APA, the ...
The Tatton-Brown-Rahman Syndrome: A clinical study of 55 individuals with de novo constitutive DNMT3A variants.
(F1000 Research Ltd, 2018-01-01)
Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome (TBRS; OMIM 615879), also known as the DNMT3A-overgrowth syndrome, is an overgrowth intellectual disability syndrome first described in 2014 with a report of 13 individuals with constitutive ...
Rare germline variants in DNA repair genes and the angiogenesis pathway predispose prostate cancer patients to develop metastatic disease.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2018-07-03)
BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer (PrCa) demonstrates a heterogeneous clinical presentation ranging from largely indolent to lethal. We sought to identify a signature of rare inherited variants that distinguishes between these ...
Suppression of interferon gene expression overcomes resistance to MEK inhibition in KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-03-07)
Despite showing clinical activity in BRAF-mutant melanoma, the MEK inhibitor (MEKi) trametinib has failed to show clinical benefit in KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer. To identify mechanisms of resistance to MEKi, we employed ...
Antibody-Neutralized Reovirus Is Effective in Oncolytic Virotherapy.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-10-01)
Immunotherapy is showing promise for otherwise incurable cancers. Oncolytic viruses (OVs), developed as direct cytotoxic agents, mediate their antitumor effects via activation of the immune system. However, OVs also stimulate ...
Synthetic Lethality and Cancer - Penetrance as the Major Barrier.
(CELL PRESS, 2018-10-01)
Synthetic lethality has long been proposed as an approach for targeting genetic defects in tumours. Despite a decade of screening efforts, relatively few robust synthetic lethal targets have been identified. Improved genetic ...
Magnetic Resonance-guided Radiotherapy - Can We Justify More Expensive Technology?
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2018-11-01)
RB1 Heterogeneity in Advanced Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-01-15)
PURPOSE: Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is a lethal but clinically heterogeneous disease, with patients having variable benefit from endocrine and cytotoxic treatments. Intrapatient genomic ...
A multiple myeloma classification system that associates normal B-cell subset phenotypes with prognosis.
(ELSEVIER, 2018-09-25)
Despite the recent progress in treatment of multiple myeloma (MM), it is still an incurable malignant disease, and we are therefore in need of new risk stratification tools that can help us to understand the disease and ...
