Optimal Threshold for a Positive Hybrid Capture 2 Test for Detection of Human Papillomavirus: Data from the ARTISTIC Trial
(AMER SOC MICROBIOLOGY, 2010-02)
We present data on the use of the Hybrid Capture 2 (HC2) test for the detection of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR HPV) with different thresholds for positivity within a primary screening setting and as a method of ...
Sunitinib in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
(2016-12)
Sunitinib is an oral multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that targets various receptors, including vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs). Sunitinib received approval in 2006 and became a standard ...
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 ...
The safety and efficacy of radium-223 dichloride for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer.
(2016-09)
Introduction A number of drugs have been shown to extend life expectancy in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Skeletal related events (SREs) secondary to bone metastases cause significant morbidity for men with ...
Differential effects of lenalidomide during plasma cell differentiation.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2016-05-10)
Thalidomide, lenalidomide and pomalidomide have greatly improved the outcome of patients with multiple myeloma. However, their effects on plasma cells, the healthy counterpart of myeloma cells, are unknown. Here, we ...
A Big Bang model of human colorectal tumor growth.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2015-03-01)
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 ...
Landscape of somatic mutations in 560 breast cancer whole-genome sequences.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-06-02)
We analysed whole-genome sequences of 560 breast cancers to advance understanding of the driver mutations conferring clonal advantage and the mutational processes generating somatic mutations. We found that 93 protein-coding ...
Hippo Stabilises Its Adaptor Salvador by Antagonising the HECT Ubiquitin Ligase Herc4
(2015-06)
Signalling through the Hippo (Hpo) pathway involves a kinase cascade, which leads to the phosphorylation and inactivation of the pro-growth transcriptional co-activator Yorkie (Yki). Despite the identification of a large ...
The cryo-electron microscopy structure of human transcription factor IIH.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-09-21)
Human transcription factor IIH (TFIIH) is part of the general transcriptional machinery required by RNA polymerase II for the initiation of eukaryotic gene transcription. Composed of ten subunits that add up to a molecular ...
Ribosome. The complete structure of the 55S mammalian mitochondrial ribosome.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2015-04-17)
Mammalian mitochondrial ribosomes (mitoribosomes) synthesize mitochondrially encoded membrane proteins that are critical for mitochondrial function. Here we present the complete atomic structure of the porcine 55S mitoribosome ...
