Detection of the prodrug-activating enzyme carboxypeptidase G2 activity with chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance.
(SPRINGER, 2014-04-01)
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the differential exchange rates with bulk water between amine and amide protons can be exploited using chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance (CEST-MR) ...
canSAR: an integrated cancer public translational research and drug discovery resource.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2012-01-01)
canSAR is a fully integrated cancer research and drug discovery resource developed to utilize the growing publicly available biological annotation, chemical screening, RNA interference screening, expression, amplification ...
GDNF-RET signaling in ER-positive breast cancers is a key determinant of response and resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2013-06-15)
Most breast cancers at diagnosis are estrogen receptor-positive (ER(+)) and depend on estrogen for growth and survival. Blocking estrogen biosynthesis by aromatase inhibitors has therefore become a first-line endocrine ...
Characterization of the genomic features and expressed fusion genes in micropapillary carcinomas of the breast.
(WILEY, 2014-04-01)
Micropapillary carcinoma (MPC) is a rare histological special type of breast cancer, characterized by an aggressive clinical behaviour and a pattern of copy number aberrations (CNAs) distinct from that of grade- and oestrogen ...
canSAR: updated cancer research and drug discovery knowledgebase.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2014-01-01)
canSAR (http://cansar.icr.ac.uk) is a public integrative cancer-focused knowledgebase for the support of cancer translational research and drug discovery. Through the integration of biological, pharmacological, chemical, ...
Cancer Burden Is Controlled by Mural Cell-β3-Integrin Regulated Crosstalk with Tumor Cells.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-06-11)
Enhanced blood vessel (BV) formation is thought to drive tumor growth through elevated nutrient delivery. However, this observation has overlooked potential roles for mural cells in directly affecting tumor growth independent ...
Pan-cancer deconvolution of tumour composition using DNA methylation.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-08-13)
The nature and extent of immune cell infiltration into solid tumours are key determinants of therapeutic response. Here, using a DNA methylation-based approach to tumour cell fraction deconvolution, we report the integrated ...
Serine synthesis pathway inhibition cooperates with dietary serine and glycine limitation for cancer therapy.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2021-01-14)
Many tumour cells show dependence on exogenous serine and dietary serine and glycine starvation can inhibit the growth of these cancers and extend survival in mice. However, numerous mechanisms promote resistance to this ...
Dichloroacetate induces autophagy in colorectal cancer cells and tumours.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2014-07-15)
BACKGROUND: Dichloroacetate (DCA) has been found to have antitumour properties. METHODS: We investigated the cellular and metabolic responses to DCA treatment and recovery in human colorectal (HT29, HCT116 WT and HCT116 ...
Autophagy inhibition specifically promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition and invasion in RAS-mutated cancer cells.
(2019-05)
Macroautophagy/autophagy inhibition is a novel anticancer therapeutic strategy, especially for tumors driven by mutant RAS. Here, we demonstrate that autophagy inhibition in RAS-mutated cells induces epithelial-mesenchymal ...
