New Roles of Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase Inhibitors in the Treatment of Breast Cancer.
(ASSOC DEVELOPPEMENT COMMUNICATION CANCEROLOGIQUE, 2021-11-01)Since the proof of concept of synthetic lethality between poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibition and loss of BRCA1/2 homologous recombination (HR) function in preclinical models and early phase clinical trials, poly(ADP-ribose) ... -
The next wave of interactomics: Mapping the SLiM-based interactions of the intrinsically disordered proteome.
(CURRENT BIOLOGY LTD, 2023-06-01)Short linear motifs (SLiMs) are a unique and ubiquitous class of protein interaction modules that perform key regulatory functions and drive dynamic complex formation. For decades, interactions mediated by SLiMs have ... -
Nipple sparing versus skin sparing mastectomy: a systematic review protocol.
(2016-05-20)Introduction Breast cancer has a lifetime incidence of one in eight women. Over the past three decades there has been a move towards breast conservation and a focus on aesthetic outcomes while maintaining oncological safety. ... -
Nipple-sparing mastectomy in women at high risk of developing breast cancer.
(2018-06)Nipple-sparing mastectomy is a valuable addition to the options available for women at high risk of developing breast cancer. In this review, we summarize current knowledge about the high-risk genes, BRCA1 , BRCA2 and TP53 ... -
Nivolumab Combination Therapy in Advanced Esophageal Squamous-Cell Carcinoma.
<h4>Background</h4>First-line chemotherapy for advanced esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma results in poor outcomes. The monoclonal antibody nivolumab has shown an overall survival benefit over chemotherapy in previously ... -
Nivolumab Plus Ipilimumab for Treatment-Naïve Metastatic Uveal Melanoma: An Open-Label, Multicenter, Phase II Trial by the Spanish Multidisciplinary Melanoma Group (GEM-1402).
(2021-01-08)Purpose This study aimed to assess the efficacy of the combination of nivolumab (nivo) plus ipilimumab (ipi) as a first-line therapy with respect to the 12-month overall survival (OS) in patients with metastatic uveal ... -
No association between polygenic risk scores for cancer and development of radiotherapy toxicity.
(Elsevier BV, 2022-07-12)PURPOSE: To test whether updated polygenic risk scores (PRS) for susceptibility to cancer affect risk of radiotherapy toxicity. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Analyses included 9,717 patients with breast (n=3,078), prostate (n=5,748) ... -
Non-Mono-Exponential Analysis of Diffusion-Weighted Imaging for Treatment Monitoring in Prostate Cancer Bone Metastases.
(2017-07-19)Diffusion-weighted imaging quantified using the mono-exponential model has shown great promise for monitoring treatment response in prostate cancer bone metastases. The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate whether ... -
Normal organ dosimetry for thyroid cancer patients treated with radioiodine as part of the multi-centre multi-national Horizon 2020 MEDIRAD project.
(SPRINGER, 2023-09-01)PURPOSE: Dosimetry is rarely performed for the treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer patients with Na[131I]I (radioiodine), and information regarding absorbed doses delivered is limited. Collection of dosimetry data ... -
A North-West London Experience of the Impact of Treatment Related Toxicity on Clinical Outcomes of Elderly Patients with Germ Cell Tumors.
(MDPI, 2022-10-11)BACKGROUND/AIM: The occurrence of germ cell tumour (GCT) in the elderly is rare, with scarce data available. The aim of this study was to understand the clinical outcomes of patients with GCT in patients aged > 45 years. ... -
Not as simple as "fear of the unknown": A qualitative study exploring anxiety in the radiotherapy department.
(WILEY, 2022-02-21)OBJECTIVE: Little is understood about the anxiety experienced by cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy or investigative imaging. Our aim was to identify sources of anxiety, the points along the cancer journey where anxiety ... -
Novel approaches to polynuclear platinum pro-drugs. Selective release of cytotoxic platinum spermidine species through hydrolytic cleavage of carbamates
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2001-11-19)BBR3464 is a novel trinuclear platinum drug currently in Phase II clinical trials. Polyamine-bridged dinuclear platinum compounds as represented by [trans-Pt(NH3)(2)Cl(2)-mu -spermidine-N-1,N-8]Cl-3 (1) are highly interesting ... -
Novel photoacid generators for photodirected oligonucleotide synthesis
(2003-01-29)Photodirected oligonucleotide synthesis uses either direct or indirect light-dependent 5’deprotection. Both have been reported to give lower stepwise synthetic yields than conventional methods. The deficiency appears to ... -
A novel role for NUPR1 in the keratinocyte stress response to UV oxidized phospholipids.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-01-01)Ultraviolet light is the dominant environmental oxidative skin stressor and a major skin aging factor. We studied which oxidized phospholipid (OxPL) mediators would be generated in primary human keratinocytes (KC) upon ... -
Nuclear envelope assembly is promoted by phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C with selective recruitment of phosphatidylinositol-enriched membranes
(PORTLAND PRESS LTD, 2005-04-15)Nuclear envelope (NE) formation in a cell-free egg extract proceeds by precursor membrane vesicle binding to chromatin in an ATP-dependent manner, followed by a GTP-induced NE assembly step. The requirement for GTP in the ... -
Nuclear export of α-catenin: overlap between nuclear export signal sequences and the β-catenin binding site
(2004)Mutations in APC or in β-catenin, which are common in colon cancer, lead to constitutive activation of β-catenin/Tcf-dependent signaling. α-Catenin is also found in some colon cancer cell nuclei, and loss of its expression ... -
Nuclear gene proximity and protein interactions shape transcript covariations in mammalian single cells.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-10-28)Single-cell RNA sequencing studies on gene co-expression patterns could yield important regulatory and functional insights, but have so far been limited by the confounding effects of differentiation and cell cycle. We apply ... -
