A Knockout Screen of ApiAP2 Genes Reveals Networks of Interacting Transcriptional Regulators Controlling the Plasmodium Life Cycle.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-01-11)A family of apicomplexa-specific proteins containing AP2 DNA-binding domains (ApiAP2s) was identified in malaria parasites. This family includes sequence-specific transcription factors that are key regulators of development. ... -
A molecular quantitative trait locus map for osteoarthritis.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-02-26)Osteoarthritis causes pain and functional disability for over 500 million people worldwide. To develop disease-stratifying tools and modifying therapies, we need a better understanding of the molecular basis of the disease ... -
A mutation in the Gsk3-binding domain of zebrafish Masterblind/Axin1 leads to a fate transformation of telencephalon and eyes to diencephalon
(2001-06-01)Zebrafish embryos homozygous for the masterblind (mb1) mutation exhibit a striking phenotype in which the eyes and telencephalon are reduced or absent and diencephalic fates expand to the front of the brain. Here we show ... -
A national survey assessing public readiness for digital health strategies against COVID-19 within the United Kingdom.
(2021-03-16)There is concern that digital public health initiatives used in the management of COVID-19 may marginalise certain population groups. There is an overlap between the demographics of groups at risk of digital exclusion ... -
A network analysis to identify mediators of germline-driven differences in breast cancer prognosis.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-01-16)Identifying the underlying genetic drivers of the heritability of breast cancer prognosis remains elusive. We adapt a network-based approach to handle underpowered complex datasets to provide new insights into the potential ... -
A novel diffuse gastric cancer susceptibility variant in E-cadherin (CDH1) intron 2: A case control study in an Italian population
(2008-05)Background: Inherited genetic factors such as E-cadherin (CDH1) promoter variants are believed to influence the risk towards sporadic diffuse gastric cancer (DGC). Recently, a new regulatory region essential for CDH1 ... -
A novel gaze-controlled flexible robotized endoscope; preliminary trial and report.
(2021-05-24)Background Interventional endoluminal therapy is rapidly advancing as a minimally invasive surgical technique. The expanding remit of endoscopic therapy necessitates precision control. Eye tracking is an emerging technology ... -
A phase 1/2 study of thiotepa-based immunochemotherapy in relapsed/refractory primary CNS lymphoma: the TIER trial.
Relapsed or refractory primary central nervous system lymphoma (rrPCNSL) confers a poor prognosis with no accepted standard of care. Very few prospective studies have been conducted in this patient group. This study was a ... -
A phase space model of a Versa HD linear accelerator for application to Monte Carlo dose calculation in a real-time adaptive workflow.
(WILEY, 2022-09-01)PURPOSE: This study aims to develop and validate a simple geometric model of the accelerator head, from which a particle phase space can be calculated for application to fast Monte Carlo dose calculation in real-time ... -
A Pocket on the Surface of the N-Terminal BRCT Domain of Mcph1 Is Required to Prevent Abnormal Chromosome Condensation
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD- ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2010-02-05)Mcph1 is mutated in autosomal recessive primary microcephaly and premature chromosome condensation (PCC) syndrome. Increased chromosome condensation is a common feature of cells isolated from patients afflicted with either ... -
A quantitative proteomic screen of the Campylobacter jejuni flagellar-dependent secretome.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2017-01-30)UNLABELLED: Campylobacter jejuni is the leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in the world. A number of factors are believed to contribute to the ability of C. jejuni to cause disease within the human host including ... -
A randomized phase II non-comparative study of PF-04691502 and gedatolisib (PF-05212384) in patients with recurrent endometrial cancer.
(2016-07)Objective PF-04691502 and gedatolisib (PF-05212384) are potent, dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors. This phase II study (B1271004) was conducted in patients with recurrent endometrial cancer following platinum-containing chemotherapy. ... -
