Predominance of BRCA2 Mutation and Estrogen Receptor Positivity in Unselected Breast Cancer with BRCA1 or BRCA2 Mutation.
(MDPI, 2022-07-04)BACKGROUND: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 inhibitor (PARPi) agents can improve progression-free survival of patients with breast cancer who carry a germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant (gBRCA) ... -
Prevalence of antibody positivity to SARS-CoV-2 following the first peak of infection in England: Serial cross-sectional studies of 365,000 adults.
(2021-05-02)Background The time-concentrated nature of the first wave of the COVID-19 epidemic in England in March and April 2020 provides a natural experiment to measure changes in antibody positivity at the population level before ... -
Preventative therapy for breast cancer: a clinical experience.
(SPRINGER, 2023-09-01)BACKGROUND: Breast Cancer incidence in the UK is estimated to rise to 71,000 per year by 2035. Preventative strategies could significantly reduce this. Preventative therapy reduces women's risk of oestrogen receptor positive ... -
PRH represses transcription in hematopoietic cells by at least two independent mechanisms
(2001-01-26)PRH (proline-rich homeodomain protein) is strongly expressed in the hematopoietic compartment, Here we show that PRH is a repressor of transcription in hematopoietic cells. A fragment of PRH that includes the homeodomain ... -
ProCAID: a phase I clinical trial to combine the AKT inhibitor AZD5363 with docetaxel and prednisolone chemotherapy for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer.
(2017-10)Background Docetaxel and prednisolone chemotherapy (DP) extends survival in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, emergent clinical resistance is almost inevitable. AKT pathway activation is ... -
Prostate Cancer Radiation Therapy Recommendations in Response to COVID-19.
Purpose During a global pandemic, the benefit of routine visits and treatment of patients with cancer must be weighed against the risks to patients, staff, and society. Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers ... -

Prostate radiotherapy in newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer.
Purpose of review The aim of this article is to review the role of prostate radiotherapy in the multimodal management of newly diagnosed metastatic hormone naïve prostate cancer.Recent findings Two randomized controlled ... -
Proteasomal degradation of the tumour suppressor FBW7 requires branched ubiquitylation by TRIP12.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2021-04-06)The tumour suppressor FBW7 is a substrate adaptor for the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex SKP1-CUL1-F-box (SCF), that targets several oncoproteins for proteasomal degradation. FBW7 is widely mutated and FBW7 protein levels are ... -
Protein and drug interactions in the minor groove of DNA
(2002-03-01)Interactions between proteins, drugs, water and B-DNA minor groove have been analyzed in crystal structures of 60 protein-DNA and 14 drug-DNA complexes. It was found that only purine N3, pyrimidine O2, guanine N2 and ... -
Proteogenomics of Non-smoking Lung Cancer in East Asia Delineates Molecular Signatures of Pathogenesis and Progression.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-07-09)Lung cancer in East Asia is characterized by a high percentage of never-smokers, early onset and predominant EGFR mutations. To illuminate the molecular phenotype of this demographically distinct disease, we performed a ... -
Proteome-scale mapping of binding sites in the unstructured regions of the human proteome.
(WILEY, 2022-01-01)Specific protein-protein interactions are central to all processes that underlie cell physiology. Numerous studies have together identified hundreds of thousands of human protein-protein interactions. However, many ... -
Proteomic analysis of extracellular vesicles from a Plasmodium falciparum Kenyan clinical isolate defines a core parasite secretome
(2017-11-22)Background : Many pathogens secrete effector molecules to subvert host immune responses, to acquire nutrients, and/or to prepare host cells for invasion. One of the ways that effector molecules are secreted is through ... -

Public preferences for delayed or immediate antibiotic prescriptions in UK primary care: A choice experiment.
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2021-08-01)BACKGROUND: Delayed (or "backup") antibiotic prescription, where the patient is given a prescription but advised to delay initiating antibiotics, has been shown to be effective in reducing antibiotic use in primary care. ... -
Quantification and dosimetry of small volumes including associated uncertainty estimation.
(SPRINGER, 2022-12-13)BACKGROUND: Accurate quantification of radioactivity in a source of interest relies on accurate registration between SPECT and anatomical images, and appropriate correction of partial volume effects (PVEs). For small ... -
Quantifying prediction of pathogenicity for within-codon concordance (PM5) using 7541 functional classifications of BRCA1 and MSH2 missense variants.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2021-11-18)PURPOSE: Conditions and thresholds applied for evidence weighting of within-codon concordance (PM5) for pathogenicity vary widely between laboratories and expert groups. Because of the sparseness of available clinical ...
