ELM-the eukaryotic linear motif resource in 2020.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2020-01-08)The eukaryotic linear motif (ELM) resource is a repository of manually curated experimentally validated short linear motifs (SLiMs). Since the initial release almost 20 years ago, ELM has become an indispensable resource ... -
ELM-the Eukaryotic Linear Motif resource-2024 update.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2024-01-05)Short Linear Motifs (SLiMs) are the smallest structural and functional components of modular eukaryotic proteins. They are also the most abundant, especially when considering post-translational modifications. As well as ... -
ELM: the status of the 2010 eukaryotic linear motif resource.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2010-01-01)Linear motifs are short segments of multidomain proteins that provide regulatory functions independently of protein tertiary structure. Much of intracellular signalling passes through protein modifications at linear motifs. ... -
Elucidating Taxane treatment resistance in lethal prostate cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-06-17)Despite diagnostic and therapeutic advances, prostate cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men, with over 1.2 million new cases worldwide and 20% of cancer-related deaths in men. While initial androgen ... -
Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma of the Ovary and Fallopian Tube: Rare Neoplasms Associated With Germline and Somatic DICER1 Mutations.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2020-06-01)DICER1 mutations (somatic or germline) are associated with a variety of uncommon neoplasms including cervical and genitourinary embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS). We report a primary ovarian and 2 primary fallopian tube ... -
Endoscopic submucosal dissection: an update on tools and accessories.
(2020-01)Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a minimally invasive therapeutic procedure to remove larger polyps or early non-metastatic lesions. It has long been used in Asia, but is now fast growing in popularity in the West. ... -
Endoscopic surveillance for bladder cancer: a systematic review of contemporary worldwide practices.
Background The aim of this systematic review was to identify the current endoscopic surveillance strategies in use across the world and to determine whether these were sufficient or if any recommendations for changes in ... -
An environmentally friendly alternative to single-use plastics for radiotherapy bladder preparation.
(Elsevier BV, 2021-06-01)More than 60,000 plastic cups were used annually for bladder preparation in one radiotherapy centre. As an alternative, patients were provided with a specifically designed reusable water bottle, aiming to reduce waste and ... -
EPEC-induced activation of the Ca2+ transporter TRPV2 leads to pyroptotic cell death.
(WILEY, 2022-02-01)The enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) type III secretion system effector Tir, which mediates intimate bacterial attachment to epithelial cells, also triggers Ca2+ influx followed by LPS entry and caspase-4-dependent ... -
Epigenetic downregulation of human disabled homolog 2 switches TGF-beta from a tumor suppressor to a tumor promoter
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2010-08)The cytokine TGF-beta acts as a tumor suppressor in normal epithelial cells and during the early stages of tumorigenesis. During malignant progression, cancer cells can switch their response to TGF-beta and use this cytokine ... -
Epstein-Barr Virus Latency in B Cells Leads to Epigenetic Repression and CpG Methylation of the Tumour Suppressor Gene Bim
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2009-06)In human B cells infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), latency-associated virus gene products inhibit expression of the proapoptotic Bcl-2-family member Bim and enhance cell survival. This involves the activities of the ... -

Estimated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cancer services and excess 1-year mortality in people with cancer and multimorbidity: near real-time data on cancer care, cancer deaths and a population-based cohort study.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-11-17)OBJECTIVES: To estimate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cancer care services and overall (direct and indirect) excess deaths in people with cancer. METHODS: We employed near real-time weekly data on cancer care to ... -
Estimating the Effect of Healthcare-Associated Infections on Excess Length of Hospital Stay Using Inverse Probability-Weighted Survival Curves.
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020-12-03)BACKGROUND: Studies estimating excess length of stay (LOS) attributable to nosocomial infections have failed to address time-varying confounding, likely leading to overestimation of their impact. We present a methodology ... -
ESTRO-ACROP recommendations on the clinical implementation of hybrid MR-linac systems in radiation oncology.
(2021-03-26)Online magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (oMRgRT) represents one of the most innovative applications of current image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT). The revolutionary concept of oMRgRT systems is the ability to ... -
Evaluating MRI biomarkers of tumour hypoxia
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2020-12-31)Tumour hypoxia is associated with resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and represents a major challenge in the treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Non-invasive imaging methods to repeatedly ... -
Evaluation of a Dual Isolation Width Acquisition Method for Isobaric Labeling Ratio Decompression.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2019-03-01)Isobaric labeling is a highly precise approach for protein quantification. However, due to the isolation interference problem, isobaric tagging suffers from ratio underestimation at the MS2 level. The use of narrow isolation ... -
