Identifying Genetic Dependencies in Cancer by Analyzing siRNA Screens in Tumor Cell Line Panels.
(HUMANA PRESS INC, 2018-01-01)Loss-of-function screening using RNA interference or CRISPR approaches can be used to identify genes that specific tumor cell lines depend upon for survival. By integrating the results from screens in multiple cell lines ... -
IL6/STAT3 Signaling Hijacks Estrogen Receptor α Enhancers to Drive Breast Cancer Metastasis.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-09-14)The cytokine interleukin-6 (IL6) and its downstream effector STAT3 constitute a key oncogenic pathway, which has been thought to be functionally connected to estrogen receptor α (ER) in breast cancer. We demonstrate that ... -
Immunohistochemical Phenotype of Breast Cancer during 25-Year Follow-up of the Royal Marsden Tamoxifen Prevention Trial.
(2017-03)The randomized, double-blinded Royal Marsden Tamoxifen Breast Cancer Prevention Trial in healthy high-risk women started in 1986 and is still blinded. Eligible participants (<i>n</i> = 2,471) were randomly assigned to ... -
Immunotherapy in older patients with non-small cell lung cancer: Young International Society of Geriatric Oncology position paper.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2020-09-15)Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors against programmed cell death receptor (PD-1) and programmed cell death ligand (PD-L1) has been implemented in the treatment pathway of patients with non-small cell lung cancer ... -
Impact of a Panel of 88 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms on the Risk of Breast Cancer in High-Risk Women: Results From Two Randomized Tamoxifen Prevention Trials.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2017-03-01)Purpose At least 94 common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with breast cancer. The extent to which an SNP panel can refine risk in women who receive preventive therapy has not been directly assessed ... -
Impact of aromatase inhibitor treatment on global gene expression and its association with antiproliferative response in ER+ breast cancer in postmenopausal patients.
(BMC, 2019-12-31)BACKGROUND: Endocrine therapy reduces breast cancer mortality by 40%, but resistance remains a major clinical problem. In this study, we sought to investigate the impact of aromatase inhibitor (AI) therapy on gene expression ... -
Impact of atopy on risk of glioma: a Mendelian randomisation study.
(BMC, 2018-03-15)BACKGROUND: An inverse relationship between allergies with glioma risk has been reported in several but not all epidemiological observational studies. We performed an analysis of genetic variants associated with atopy to ... -
Impact of mutational profiles on response of primary oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancers to oestrogen deprivation.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2016-11-09)Pre-surgical studies allow study of the relationship between mutations and response of oestrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer to aromatase inhibitors (AIs) but have been limited to small biopsies. Here in phase I ... -
Impact of pharmacogenomic DPYD variant guided dosing on toxicity in patients receiving fluoropyrimidines for gastrointestinal cancers in a high-volume tertiary centre.
(BMC, 2023-04-26)BACKGROUND: Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is a key enzyme in the metabolism of fluoropyrimidines. Variations in the encoding DPYD gene are associated with severe fluoropyrimidine toxicity and up-front dose reductions ... -
Impact of Spontaneous Extracranial Bleeding Events on Health State Utility in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: Results from the ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48 Trial.
(WILEY, 2017-08-11)BACKGROUND: The impact of different types of extracranial bleeding events on health-related quality of life and health-state utility among patients with atrial fibrillation is not well understood. METHODS AND RESULTS: The ... -
Impact of the menstrual cycle on commercial prognostic gene signatures in oestrogen receptor-positive primary breast cancer.
(SPRINGER, 2021-11-01)PURPOSE: Changes occur in the expression of oestrogen-regulated and proliferation-associated genes in oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast tumours during the menstrual cycle. We investigated if Oncotype® DX recurrence ... -
Impact of type of full-field digital image on mammographic density assessment and breast cancer risk estimation: a case-control study.
(2016-09-26)Background Full-field digital mammography, which is gradually being introduced in most clinical and screening settings, produces two types of images: raw and processed. However, the extent to which mammographic density ... -
Impairment of a distinct cancer-associated fibroblast population limits tumour growth and metastasis
Abstract Profiling studies have revealed considerable phenotypic heterogeneity in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) present within the tumour microenvironment, however, functional characterisation of different CAF subsets ... -
Impairment of a distinct cancer-associated fibroblast population limits tumour growth and metastasis.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-06-10)Profiling studies have revealed considerable phenotypic heterogeneity in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) present within the tumour microenvironment, however, functional characterisation of different CAF subsets is ... -
Implementing rapid, robust, cost-effective, patient-centred, routine genetic testing in ovarian cancer patients.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2016-07-13)Advances in DNA sequencing have made genetic testing fast and affordable, but limitations of testing processes are impeding realisation of patient benefits. Ovarian cancer exemplifies the potential value of genetic testing ... -
In vivo reprogramming of non-mammary cells to an epithelial cell fate is independent of amphiregulin signaling.
(COMPANY OF BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2017-06-15)Amphiregulin (AREG)-/- mice demonstrate impaired mammary development and form only rudimentary ductal epithelial trees; however, AREG-/- glands are still capable of undergoing alveologenesis and lactogenesis during pregnancy. ... -
Inactivating NF1 Mutations Are Enriched in Advanced Breast Cancer and Contribute to Endocrine Therapy Resistance.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-02-01)PURPOSE: Advanced breast cancer (ABC) has not been subjected to the same degree of molecular scrutiny as early primary cancer. Breast cancer evolves with time and under the selective pressure of treatment, with the potential ... -
Incorporating clinicopathological and molecular risk prediction tools to improve outcomes in early HR+/HER2- breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-06-28)Stratification of recurrence risk is a cornerstone of early breast cancer diagnosis that informs a patient's optimal treatment pathway. Several tools exist that combine clinicopathological and molecular information, including ...
