A discrete ordinates Boltzmann solver for application to inverse planning of photons and protons.
(IOP Publishing, 2023-08-29)The aim of this work is to develop a discrete ordinates Boltzmann solver that can be used for calculation of absorbed dose from both photons and protons within an inverse planning optimizer, so as to perform accurate dose ... -
Discriminative identification of transcriptional responses of promoters and enhancers after stimulus
(2017-01-01)Promoters and enhancers regulate the initiation of gene expression and maintenance of expression levels in spatial and temporal manner. Recent findings stemming from the Cap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE) demonstrate ... -
DisProt in 2022: improved quality and accessibility of protein intrinsic disorder annotation.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2022-01-07)The Database of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (DisProt, URL: https://disprot.org) is the major repository of manually curated annotations of intrinsically disordered proteins and regions from the literature. We report ... -
DisProt: intrinsic protein disorder annotation in 2020.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2020-01-08)The Database of Protein Disorder (DisProt, URL: https://disprot.org) provides manually curated annotations of intrinsically disordered proteins from the literature. Here we report recent developments with DisProt (version ... -

DNA Damage Activates a Spatially Distinct Late Cytoplasmic Cell-Cycle Checkpoint Network Controlled by MK2-Mediated RNA Stabilization
(CELL PRESS, 2010-10-08)Following genotoxic stress, cells activate a complex kinase-based signaling network to arrest the cell cycle and initiate DNA repair. p53-defective tumor cells rewire their checkpoint response and become dependent on the ... -
Does Body Contouring After Bariatric Weight Loss Enhance Quality of Life? A Systematic Review of QOL Studies.
(2018-10)Massive weight loss following bariatric surgery can result in excess tissue, manifesting as large areas of redundant skin that can be managed by body contouring surgery. This study aims to quantify the effects of body ... -
Does mainstream BRCA testing affect surgical decision-making in newly-diagnosed breast cancer patients?
(Elsevier BV, 2023-02-01)BACKGROUND: Germline pathogenic variants mutations) in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes cause an increased risk of breast cancer and ovarian cancer. Mainstream cancer genetic testing (MCG) was introduced for breast cancer patients ... -
Does the addition of whole-body MRI to routine imaging influence real-world treatment decisions in metastatic breast cancer?
(BMC, 2022-06-07)BACKGROUND: The assessment of metastatic breast cancer (MBC) can be limited with routine imaging such as computed tomography (CT) especially in bone-only or bone-predominant disease. This analysis investigates the effects ... -
Dosimetric comparison of five different techniques for craniospinal irradiation across 15 European centers: analysis on behalf of the SIOP-E-BTG (radiotherapy working group).
(2018-09)PURPOSE:Conventional techniques (3D-CRT) for craniospinal irradiation (CSI) are still widely used. Modern techniques (IMRT, VMAT, TomoTherapy®, proton pencil beam scanning [PBS]) are applied in a limited number of centers. ... -
Dual Inhibitors of PARPs and ROCKs.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2018-10-31)Recent network and system biology analyses suggest that most complex diseases are regulated by robust and highly interconnected pathways that could be better modulated by small molecules binding to multiple biological ... -
Dual-view oblique plane microscopy (dOPM).
(OPTICAL SOC AMER, 2020-12-01)We present a new folded dual-view oblique plane microscopy (OPM) technique termed dOPM that enables two orthogonal views of the sample to be obtained by translating a pair of tilted mirrors in refocussing space. Using a ... -
DUSP16 is an epigenetically regulated determinant of JNK signalling in Burkitt’s lymphoma
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2010-07-13)BACKGROUND: The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphatases or dual specificity phosphatases (DUSPs) are a family of proteins that catalyse the inactivation of MAPK in eukaryotic cells. Little is known of the ... -
