Frequency and risk factors for major complications after stereotactic radiofrequency ablation of liver tumors in 1235 ablation sessions: a 15-year experience.
(SPRINGER, 2021-05-01)OBJECTIVES: To assess the frequency of major complications after multi-probe stereotactic radiofrequency ablation (SRFA) in a large cohort of patients over 15 years and to elucidate risk factors for adverse events. MATERIALS ... -
From presentation to paper: Gender disparities in oncological research.
(WILEY, 2020-06-01)Gender disparities in scientific publications have been identified in oncological research. Oral research presentations at major conferences enhance visibility of presenters. The share of women presenting at such podia is ... -
Functional characterisation of EGFR mutations in cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-08-31)Large-scale pan-cancer sequencing of tumour samples has identified a plethora of epidermal growth factor (EGFR) mutations along the full length of the gene. However, clinical studies have demonstrated that distinct mutations ... -
Functional characterization of E- and P-cadherin in invasive breast cancer cells
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2009-03-03)Background: Alterations in the cadherin-catenin adhesion complexes are involved in tumor initiation, progression and metastasis. However, the functional implication of distinct cadherin types in breast cancer biology is ... -
A functional interaction between liprin-α1 and B56γ regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 2A supports tumor cell motility.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-09-28)Scaffold liprin-α1 is required to assemble dynamic plasma membrane-associated platforms (PMAPs) at the front of migrating breast cancer cells, to promote protrusion and invasion. We show that the N-terminal region of ... -
Functional lung avoidance in radiotherapy using optimisation of biologically effective dose with non-coplanar beam orientations.
(ELSEVIER, 2023-10-01)BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In external beam radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer, dose to functioning lung should be minimised to reduce lung morbidity. This study aimed to develop a method for avoiding beam delivery ... -
Functional screening reveals HORMAD1-driven gene dependencies associated with translesion synthesis and replication stress tolerance.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2022-08-05)HORMAD1 expression is usually restricted to germline cells, but it becomes mis-expressed in epithelial cells in ~60% of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs), where it is associated with elevated genomic instability (1). ... -
Functional versus non-functional intratumor heterogeneity in cancer.
(2016-07)Next-generation sequencing data from human cancers are often difficult to interpret within the context of tumor evolution. We developed a mathematical model describing the accumulation of mutations under neutral evolutionary ... -
Gastric Collision Tumors: An Insight into Their Origin and Clinical Significance
(2015)Collision tumors are rare neoplasms displaying two distinct cell populations developing in juxtaposition to one another without areas of intermingling. They are rare entities with only 63 cases described in English literature. ... -
General anaesthetic and airway management practice for obstetric surgery in England: a prospective, multicentre observational study.
(WILEY, 2020-09-21)There are no current descriptions of general anaesthesia characteristics for obstetric surgery, despite recent changes to patient baseline characteristics and airway management guidelines. This analysis of data from the ... -
Genetic Testing for Cancer Predisposition Syndromes in Adolescents and Young Adults (AYAs)

Genetic Tracing via DNGR-1 Expression History Defines Dendritic Cells as a Hematopoietic Lineage
(CELL PRESS, 2013-08-15)Mononuclear phagocytes are classified as macrophages or dendritic cells (DCs) based on cell morphology, phenotype, or select functional properties. However, these attributes are not absolute and often overlap, leading to ... -
Genomic Abnormalities as Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets in Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
(MDPI, 2021-10-09)Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous malignancy characterized by the clonal expansion of myeloid stem and progenitor cells in the bone marrow, peripheral blood, and other tissues. AML results from the ... -
Genomic Evolution of Breast Cancer Metastasis and Relapse.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-08-14)Patterns of genomic evolution between primary and metastatic breast cancer have not been studied in large numbers, despite patients with metastatic breast cancer having dismal survival. We sequenced whole genomes or a panel ... -
Germline and Somatic Genetic Variants in the p53 Pathway Interact to Affect Cancer Risk, Progression, and Drug Response.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-04-01)Insights into oncogenesis derived from cancer susceptibility loci (SNP) hold the potential to facilitate better cancer management and treatment through precision oncology. However, therapeutic insights have thus far been ... -
Germline-focused analysis of tumour-detected variants in 49,264 cancer patients: ESMO Precision Medicine Working Group recommendations.
(ELSEVIER, 2023-03-01)BACKGROUND: The European Society for Medical Oncology Precision Medicine Working Group (ESMO PMWG) was reconvened to update its 2018/19 recommendations on follow-up of putative germline variants detected on tumour-only ... -
Germline-focussed analysis of tumour-only sequencing: recommendations from the ESMO Precision Medicine Working Group.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2019-08-01)It is increasingly common in oncology practice to perform tumour sequencing using large cancer panels. For pathogenic sequence variants in cancer susceptibility genes identified on tumour-only sequencing, it is often unclear ... -
Global, site-specific analysis of neuronal protein S-acylation.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-07-05)Protein S-acylation (palmitoylation) is a reversible lipid modification that is an important regulator of dynamic membrane-protein interactions. Proteomic approaches have uncovered many putative palmitoylated proteins ...
