14-3-3 Proteins Interact with a Hybrid Prenyl-Phosphorylation Motif to Inhibit G Proteins
(2013-04)Signaling through G proteins normally involves conformational switching between GTP- and GDP-bound states. Several Rho GTPases are also regulated by RhoGDI binding and sequestering in the cytosol. Rnd proteins are atypical ... -
3-D printing in anaesthesia: challenges and controversies
(Wiley, 2017-10) -
6p abnormalities and TNF-α over-expression in retinoblastoma cell line
(2001)Retinoblastoma is the most common primary intra-ocular tumor in childhood. It has been established that recurrent cytogenetic abnormalities are the hallmark of mostly all malignant tumors. Recurrent atypical cytogenetic ... -
A Big Bang model of human colorectal tumor growth.
(2015-03)What happens in early, still undetectable human malignancies is unknown because direct observations are impractical. Here we present and validate a 'Big Bang' model, whereby tumors grow predominantly as a single expansion ... -
A comparative study of short-term outcomes of colorectal cancer surgery in the elderly population
(Informa UK Limited, 2017-09-03) -
A comparison between cobalt and linear accelerator-based treatment plans for conformal and intensity-modulated radiotherapy
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2008-04)The simplicity of cobalt units gives them the advantage ofreduced maintenance, running costs and downtime when compared with linear accelerators. However, treatments carried out on such units are typically limited to simple ... -
A comparison of operative outcomes between standard and robotic laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
(2017-12)Background Evidence has been systematically assessed comparing robotic with standard laparoscopy for treatment of endometrial cancer.Methods A search of Medline, Embase and Cochrane databases was performed until 30th October ... -
A comparison of the left thoracoabdominal and Ivor–Lewis esophagectomy
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2018-03-01)SUMMARY The purpose of this study was to assess the oncological outcomes of a large multicenter series of left thoracoabdominal esophagectomies, and compare these to the more widely utilized Ivor–Lewis esophagectomy. With ... -
A comprehensive nomenclature for serine proteases with homology to tissue kallikreins
(WALTER DE GRUYTER & CO, 2006-06)The human kallikrein locus on chromosome 19q13.3-13.4 contains kallikrein 1 - the tissue kallikrein - and 14 related serine proteases. Recent investigations into their function and evolution have indicated that the present ... -
A dual modality approach to quantitative quality control in emission tomography
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2005-08-07)Routine quality control (QC) and optimization of image quality of reconstructed images in single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) remains a relatively qualitative exercise. ... -
A Fast and Quantitative Method for Post-translational Modification and Variant Enabled Mapping of Peptides to Genomes.
(2018-05-22)Cross-talk between genes, transcripts, and proteins is the key to cellular responses; hence, analysis of molecular levels as distinct entities is slowly being extended to integrative studies to enhance the understanding ... -
A First-in-Human Study of Novel Cereblon Modulator Avadomide (CC-122) in Advanced Malignancies.
(2019-01)Purpose Avadomide is a novel, small-molecule therapeutic agent that modulates cereblon E3 ligase activity and exhibits potent antitumor and immunomodulatory activities. This first-in-human phase I study (NCT01421524) ... -
A Four-Group Urine Risk Classifier for Predicting Outcome in Prostate Cancer Patients.
(2019-05-20)Objectives To develop a risk classifier using urine-derived extracellular vesicle RNA (UEV-RNA) capable of providing diagnostic information of disease status prior to biopsy, and prognostic information for men on active ... -
A genome-wide screen identifies the evolutionarily conserved KEOPS complex as a telomere regulator
(2006)A genome-wide screen identifies the evolutionarily conserved KEOPS complex as a telomere regulator Telomere capping is the essential function of telomeres. To identify new genes involved in telomere capping, we carried out ... -
A Kinetic Test Characterizes Kinase Intramolecular and Intermolecular Autophosphorylation Mechanisms
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2013-07-02)Many protein kinases catalyze their own activation by autophosphorylation. The mechanism of this is generally considered to be intermolecular and similar to that used in substrate phosphorylation. We derived the kinetic ... -
A Knockout Screen of ApiAP2 Genes Reveals Networks of Interacting Transcriptional Regulators Controlling the Plasmodium Life Cycle.
(2017-01)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 meta-analysis comparing the risk of metastases in patients with rectal cancer and MRI-detected extramural vascular invasion (mrEMVI) vs mrEMVI-negative cases.
(2017-06)Background Pathological extramural vascular invasion (EMVI) is an independent prognostic factor in rectal cancer, but can also be identified on MRI-detected extramural vascular invasion (mrEMVI). We perform a meta-analysis ... -
A method of simulating dynamic multileaf collimators using Monte Carlo techniques for intensity-modulated radiation therapy
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2001-09)A method of modelling the dynamic motion of multileaf collimators (MLCs) for intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) was developed and implemented into the Monte Carlo simulation. The simulation of the dynamic MLCs ...
