Exploiting induced pluripotent stem cell-derived macrophages to unravel host factors influencing Chlamydia trachomatis pathogenesis.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-04-25)
Chlamydia trachomatis remains a leading cause of bacterial sexually transmitted infections and preventable blindness worldwide. There are, however, limited in vitro models to study the role of host genetics in the response ...
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 ...
Fast, Quantitative and Variant Enabled Mapping of Peptides to Genomes.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-08-23)
Current tools for visualization and integration of proteomics with other omics datasets are inadequate for large-scale studies and capture only basic sequence identity information. Furthermore, the frequent reformatting ...
Molecular alterations in triple-negative breast cancer-the road to new treatment strategies.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2017-06-17)
Triple-negative breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease and specific therapies have not been available for a long time. Therefore, conventional chemotherapy is still considered the clinical state of the art. Different ...
Genomic Evolution of Breast Cancer Metastasis and Relapse.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-08-14)
Patterns of genomic evolution between primary and metastatic breast cancer have not been studied in large numbers, despite patients with metastatic breast cancer having dismal survival. We sequenced whole genomes or a panel ...
Arc Requires PSD95 for Assembly into Postsynaptic Complexes Involved with Neural Dysfunction and Intelligence.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-10-17)
Arc is an activity-regulated neuronal protein, but little is known about its interactions, assembly into multiprotein complexes, and role in human disease and cognition. We applied an integrated proteomic and genetic ...
Somatic mutations reveal asymmetric cellular dynamics in the early human embryo.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-03-30)
Somatic cells acquire mutations throughout the course of an individual's life. Mutations occurring early in embryogenesis are often present in a substantial proportion of, but not all, cells in postnatal humans and thus ...
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS)-Based Methods for Examining Cancer Metabolism in Response to Oncogenic Kinase Drug Treatment.
(HUMANA PRESS INC, 2017-01-01)
Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is an analytical technique that has been extensively used to examine reprogrammed metabolism and treatment response in cancer cells and solid tumors both in vivo and ex vivo. High-resolution ...
Between-region genetic divergence reflects the mode and tempo of tumor evolution.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-06-05)
Given the implications of tumor dynamics for precision medicine, there is a need to systematically characterize the mode of evolution across diverse solid tumor types. In particular, methods to infer the role of natural ...
Vps34 PI 3-kinase inactivation enhances insulin sensitivity through reprogramming of mitochondrial metabolism.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-11-27)
Vps34 PI3K is thought to be the main producer of phosphatidylinositol-3-monophosphate, a lipid that controls intracellular vesicular trafficking. The organismal impact of systemic inhibition of Vps34 kinase activity is not ...
