A transcriptome-wide association study of 229,000 women identifies new candidate susceptibility genes for breast cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-07-01)The breast cancer risk variants identified in genome-wide association studies explain only a small fraction of the familial relative risk, and the genes responsible for these associations remain largely unknown. To identify ... -
A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing: Systemic Immune Activation Post Immunotherapy.
(Innovative Healthcare Institute, 2021-11-01)INTRODUCTION: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are increasingly a standard of care for many cancers; these agents can result in immune-related adverse events (irAEs) including fever, which is common but can rarely be ... -
ABC-transporter upregulation mediates resistance to the CDK7 inhibitors THZ1 and ICEC0942.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-01-01)The CDK7 inhibitors (CDK7i) ICEC0942 and THZ1, are promising new cancer therapeutics. Resistance to targeted drugs frequently compromises cancer treatment. We sought to identify mechanisms by which cancer cells may become ... -
Abemaciclib as initial therapy for advanced breast cancer: MONARCH 3 updated results in prognostic subgroups.
(2021-06-22)In MONARCH 3, continuous dosing of abemaciclib with an aromatase inhibitor (AI) conferred significant clinical benefit to postmenopausal women with HR+, HER2- advanced breast cancer. We report data for clinically prognostic ... -
Abiraterone in patients with recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer: principal results of the phase II Cancer of the Ovary Abiraterone (CORAL) trial (CRUK - A16037).
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2020-12-01)BACKGROUND: Recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains difficult to treat, with an urgent need for more therapy options. Androgens bind to the androgen receptor (AR), commonly expressed in EOC. CYP17 inhibitor ... -
Abiraterone shows alternate activity in models of endocrine resistant and sensitive disease.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2018-08-01)BACKGROUND: Resistance to endocrine therapy remains a major clinical problem in the treatment of oestrogen-receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer. Studies show androgen-receptor (AR) remains present in 80-90% of metastatic ... -
Accountability in the NHS: the impact on cancer care.
(Ecancer Global Foundation, 2018-01-01)Accountability of service delivery is becoming increasingly complex and never has this been more apparent than in the field of Oncology. Cancer care has an unrivalled level of complexity not only in the heterogeneity of ... -
Accuracy of classification of invasive lobular carcinoma on needle core biopsy of the breast.
(BMJ, 2016-12-01)Although the UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines recommend that in patients with biopsy-proven invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC), preoperative MRI scan is considered, the accuracy of diagnosis ... -
Accurate clinical detection of exon copy number variants in a targeted NGS panel using DECoN.
(F1000 Research Ltd, 2016-11-25)Background: Targeted next generation sequencing (NGS) panels are increasingly being used in clinical genomics to increase capacity, throughput and affordability of gene testing. Identifying whole exon deletions or duplications ... -
Actin-myosin-based contraction is responsible for apoptotic nuclear disintegration.
(2005-01)Membrane blebbing during the apoptotic execution phase results from caspase-mediated cleavage and activation of ROCK I. Here, we show that ROCK activity, myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation, MLC ATPase activity, and ... -
Adamts18 deletion results in distinct developmental defects and provides a model for congenital disorders of lens, lung, and female reproductive tract development.
(COMPANY OF BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2016-11-15)The ADAMTS family comprises 19 secreted metalloproteinases that cleave extracellular matrix components and have diverse functions in numerous disease and physiological contexts. A number of them remain 'orphan' proteases ... -
ADAMTS18+ villus tip telocytes maintain a polarized VEGFA signaling domain and fenestrations in nutrient-absorbing intestinal blood vessels.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-07-09)The small intestinal villus tip is the first point of contact for lumen-derived substances including nutrients and microbial products. Electron microscopy studies from the early 1970s uncovered unusual spatial organization ... -
Adapting care for older cancer patients during the COVID-19 pandemic: Recommendations from the International Society of Geriatric Oncology (SIOG) COVID-19 Working Group.
(ELSEVIER, 2020-11-01)The COVID-19 pandemic poses a barrier to equal and evidence-based management of cancer in older adults. The International Society of Geriatric Oncology (SIOG) formed a panel of experts to develop consensus recommendations ... -
Adaptive immunity and neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern following vaccination in patients with cancer: the CAPTURE study.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-10-27)Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) antiviral response in a pan-tumor immune monitoring (CAPTURE) ( NCT03226886 ) is a prospective cohort study of COVID-19 immunity in patients with cancer. Here we evaluated 585 patients ... -
Adaptive immunity to SARS-CoV-2 in cancer patients: The CAPTURE study.

Adult weight change and premenopausal breast cancer risk: A prospective pooled analysis of data from 628,463 women.
(WILEY, 2020-09-01)Early-adulthood body size is strongly inversely associated with risk of premenopausal breast cancer. It is unclear whether subsequent changes in weight affect risk. We pooled individual-level data from 17 prospective studies ... -
Advances and challenges in targeting FGFR signalling in cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2016-11-18)Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors (FGFRs) regulate numerous cellular processes. Deregulation of FGFR signalling is observed in a subset of many cancers, making activated FGFRs a highly promising potential ... -
