X-inactivation patch size in human female tissue confounds the assessment of tumor clonality
(2003-03-18)
Most models of tumorigenesis assume that tumors are monoclonal in origin. This conclusion is based largely on studies using X chromosome-linked markers in females. One important factor, often ignored in such studies, is ...
ROS Dynamics Delineate Functional States of Hippocampal Neural Stem Cells and Link to Their Activity-Dependent Exit from Quiescence.
(CELL PRESS, 2021-02-04)
Cellular redox states regulate the balance between stem cell maintenance and activation. Increased levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) are linked to proliferation and lineage specification. In contrast ...
Characterization of proteome-size scaling by integrative omics reveals mechanisms of proliferation control in cancer.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2023-01-25)
Almost all living cells maintain size uniformity through successive divisions. Proteins that over and underscale with size can act as rheostats, which regulate cell cycle progression. Using a multiomic strategy, we leveraged ...
Representative Sequencing: Unbiased Sampling of Solid Tumor Tissue.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-05-05)
Although thousands of solid tumors have been sequenced to date, a fundamental under-sampling bias is inherent in current methodologies. This is caused by a tissue sample input of fixed dimensions (e.g., 6 mm biopsy), which ...
Upregulation of GALNT7 in prostate cancer modifies O-glycosylation and promotes tumour growth.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2023-03-16)
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and it is estimated that over 350,000 men worldwide die of prostate cancer every year. There remains an unmet clinical need to improve how clinically significant prostate ...
Phase 1/2a trial of intravenous BAL101553, a novel controller of the spindle assembly checkpoint, in advanced solid tumours.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2020-08-03)
BACKGROUND: BAL101553 (lisavanbulin), the lysine prodrug of BAL27862 (avanbulin), exhibits broad anti-proliferative activity in human cancer models refractory to clinically relevant microtubule-targeting agents. METHODS: ...
Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cell Therapy for Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM).
(MDPI, 2017-09-01)
Cancer immunotherapy has now become a recognized approach to treating cancers. In addition to checkpoint blockade, adoptive T cell transfer (ACT) using chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) has shown impressive clinical outcomes ...
Efficacy and safety of ripretinib in patients with KIT-altered metastatic melanoma.
(ELSEVIER, 2022-08-01)
BACKGROUND: Ripretinib, a broad-spectrum KIT and platelet-derived growth factor receptor A switch-control tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is approved for the treatment of adult patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal ...
The Chemical Probes Portal: an expert review-based public resource to empower chemical probe assessment, selection and use.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2023-01-06)
We describe the Chemical Probes Portal (https://www.chemicalprobes.org/), an expert review-based public resource to empower chemical probe assessment, selection and use. Chemical probes are high-quality small-molecule ...
Evidence of Chemoresponsiveness in Unresectable Metastatic Angiomatoid Fibrous Histiocytoma.
(Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2023-01-16)
Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a soft tissue neoplasm of intermediate biological potential. Typically a slow-growing tumor, it can recur locally. Rarely, it manifests as a soft tissue sarcoma capable of metastasis. ...
