3D tumour spheroids for the prediction of the effects of radiation and hyperthermia treatments.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-03)
For multimodality therapies such as the combination of hyperthermia and radiation, quantification of biological effects is key for dose prescription and response prediction. Tumour spheroids have a microenvironment that ...
Selective protection of human cardiomyocytes from anthracycline cardiotoxicity by small molecule inhibitors of MAP4K4.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-07-21)
Given the poor track record to date of animal models for creating cardioprotective drugs, human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hPSC-CMs) have been proposed as a therapeutically relevant human platform to ...
Alternative catalytic residues in the active site of Esco acetyltransferases.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-06-17)
Cohesin is a protein complex whose core subunits, Smc1, Smc3, Scc1, and SA1/SA2 form a ring-like structure encircling the DNA. Cohesins play a key role in the expression, repair, and segregation of eukaryotic genomes. ...
Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma with regional nodal involvement: Results of a combined analysis from two cooperative groups.
(WILEY, 2021-03-01)
BACKGROUND: Treatment of children and adolescents with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) and regional nodal involvement (N1) have been approached differently by North American and European cooperative groups. In order to ...
A rapid review of evidence and recommendations from the SIOPE radiation oncology working group to help mitigate for reduced paediatric radiotherapy capacity during the COVID-19 pandemic or other crises.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2020-07-01)
OBJECTIVE: To derive evidence-based recommendations for the optimal utilisation of resources during unexpected shortage of radiotherapy capacity. METHODS AND MATERIALS: We have undertaken a rapid review of published ...
Nuclear Translocation of Glutaminase GLS2 in Human Cancer Cells Associates with Proliferation Arrest and Differentiation.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-10)
Glutaminase (GA) catalyzes the first step in mitochondrial glutaminolysis playing a key role in cancer metabolic reprogramming. Humans express two types of GA isoforms: GLS and GLS2. GLS isozymes have been consistently ...
The kinase polypharmacology landscape of clinical PARP inhibitors.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-17)
Polypharmacology plays an important role in defining response and adverse effects of drugs. For some mechanisms, experimentally mapping polypharmacology is commonplace, although this is typically done within the same protein ...
Perspectives on ENCODE.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-07-30)
The Encylopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) Project launched in 2003 with the long-term goal of developing a comprehensive map of functional elements in the human genome. These included genes, biochemical regions associated ...
