Characterisation of CCT271850, a selective, oral and potent MPS1 inhibitor, used to directly measure in vivo MPS1 inhibition vs therapeutic efficacy.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-04-25)BACKGROUND: The main role of the cell cycle is to enable error-free DNA replication, chromosome segregation and cytokinesis. One of the best characterised checkpoint pathways is the spindle assembly checkpoint, which ... -
Characterisation of the Stromal Microenvironment in Lobular Breast Cancer.
(MDPI, 2022-02-11)Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is the second most common histological subtype of breast cancer, and it exhibits a number of clinico-pathological characteristics distinct from the more common invasive ductal carcinoma ... -
Characterising transcriptomic and immune heterogeneity in aggressive invasive lobular breast cancers
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-01-16)Invasive Lobular Carcinoma (ILC) is the second most common histological subtype of breast cancer (BC) accounting for 10-15% of all BCs. It is a unique disease entity with distinct histological appearances, molecular ... -
Characterization of circulating breast cancer cells with tumorigenic and metastatic capacity.
(WILEY, 2020-09-07)Functional studies giving insight into the biology of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) remain scarce due to the low frequency of CTCs and lack of appropriate models. Here, we describe the characterization of a novel CTC-derived ... -
Characterization of sugar binding by the mannose receptor family member, Endo180.
(AMER SOC BIOCHEMISTRY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INC, 2002-12-27)Members of the mannose receptor family, the mannose receptor, the phospholipase A(2) receptor, DEC-205, and Endo180, contain multiple C-type lectin-like domains (CTLDs) within a single polypeptide. In addition, at their N ... -
Characterization of the genomic features and expressed fusion genes in micropapillary carcinomas of the breast.
(WILEY, 2014-04-01)Micropapillary carcinoma (MPC) is a rare histological special type of breast cancer, characterized by an aggressive clinical behaviour and a pattern of copy number aberrations (CNAs) distinct from that of grade- and oestrogen ... -
Characterizing genetic variants for clinical action.
(2014-03-13)Genome-wide association studies, DNA sequencing studies, and other genomic studies are finding an increasing number of genetic variants associated with clinical phenotypes that may be useful in developing diagnostic, ... -
Checkpoints in TNF-Induced Cell Death: Implications in Inflammation and Cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018-01-01)Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a proinflammatory cytokine that coordinates tissue homeostasis by regulating cytokine production, cell survival, and cell death. However, how life and death decisions are made in response to ... -
Chemosensitivity profiling of osteosarcoma tumour cell lines identifies a model of BRCAness.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-07-13)Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive sarcoma, where novel treatment approaches are required. Genomic studies suggest that a subset of OS, including OS tumour cell lines (TCLs), exhibit genomic loss of heterozygosity (LOH) ... -
Chemotaxis towards hyaluronan is dependent on CD44 expression and modulated by cell type variation in CD44-hyaluronan binding.
(COMPANY OF BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2005-11-01)The accumulation of the extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan by tumours and tumour-associated stroma promotes cancer cell invasion and metastasis. Using the Dunn chamber chemotaxis assay, we demonstrate for ... -
Chemotherapy and gene expression profiling in older early luminal breast cancer patients: An International Society of Geriatric Oncology systematic review.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2022-09-01)BACKGROUND: The benefit of chemotherapy for older patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative early breast cancer (EBC) is a key area of debate. Gene expression ... -
Chemotherapy-induced senescent cancer cells engulf other cells to enhance their survival.
(ROCKEFELLER UNIV PRESS, 2019-11-04)In chemotherapy-treated breast cancer, wild-type p53 preferentially induces senescence over apoptosis, resulting in a persisting cell population constituting residual disease that drives relapse and poor patient survival ... -
Childhood body size and pubertal timing in relation to adult mammographic density phenotype.
(BMC, 2017-02-07)BACKGROUND: An earlier age at onset of breast development and longer time between pubertal stages has been implicated in breast cancer risk. It is not clear whether associations of breast cancer risk with puberty or ... -
Cholesterol biosynthesis pathway as a novel mechanism of resistance to estrogen deprivation in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer.
(BMC, 2016-06-01)BACKGROUND: Therapies targeting estrogenic stimulation in estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer (BC) reduce mortality, but resistance remains a major clinical problem. Molecular studies have shown few high-frequency ... -
Circulating anti-Müllerian hormone and breast cancer risk: A study in ten prospective cohorts.
(WILEY, 2018-06-01)A strong positive association has been observed between circulating anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), a biomarker of ovarian reserve, and breast cancer risk in three prospective studies. Confirming this association is important ... -
Circulating Cell-Free DNA to Guide Prostate Cancer Treatment with PARP Inhibition.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-09-01)Biomarkers for more precise patient care are needed in metastatic prostate cancer. We have reported a phase II trial (TOPARP-A) of the PARP inhibitor olaparib in metastatic prostate cancer, demonstrating antitumor activity ... -
Circulating Growth and Sex Hormone Levels and Breast Tissue Composition in Young Nulliparous Women.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-12-01)BACKGROUND: Endogenous hormones are associated with breast cancer risk, but little is known about their role on breast tissue composition, a strong risk predictor. This study aims to investigate the relationship between ... -
Circulating microRNA Analysis in a Prospective Co-clinical Trial Identifies MIR652-3p as a Response Biomarker and Driver of Regorafenib Resistance Mechanisms in Colorectal Cancer.
