Cancer Burden Is Controlled by Mural Cell-β3-Integrin Regulated Crosstalk with Tumor Cells.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-06-11)
Enhanced blood vessel (BV) formation is thought to drive tumor growth through elevated nutrient delivery. However, this observation has overlooked potential roles for mural cells in directly affecting tumor growth independent ...
Pericyte FAK negatively regulates Gas6/Axl signalling to suppress tumour angiogenesis and tumour growth.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-06-04)
The overexpression of the protein tyrosine kinase, Focal adhesion kinase (FAK), in endothelial cells has implicated its requirement in angiogenesis and tumour growth, but how pericyte FAK regulates tumour angiogenesis is ...
Ubiquitylation of MLKL at lysine 219 positively regulates necroptosis-induced tissue injury and pathogen clearance.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-06-07)
Necroptosis is a lytic, inflammatory form of cell death that not only contributes to pathogen clearance but can also lead to disease pathogenesis. Necroptosis is triggered by RIPK3-mediated phosphorylation of MLKL, which ...
Retrospective analysis of molecular scores for the prediction of distant recurrence according to baseline risk factors.
(2016-08)
Clinical variables and several gene signature profiles have been investigated for the prediction of (distant) recurrence in several trials. These molecular markers are significantly correlated with overall and late distant ...
Long-term outcome and prognostic value of Ki67 after perioperative endocrine therapy in postmenopausal women with hormone-sensitive early breast cancer (POETIC): an open-label, multicentre, parallel-group, randomised, phase 3 trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-11-01)
BACKGROUND: Preoperative and perioperative aromatase inhibitor (POAI) therapy has the potential to improve outcomes in women with operable oestrogen receptor-positive primary breast cancer. It has also been suggested that ...
Relationship of ZNF423 and CTSO with breast cancer risk in two randomised tamoxifen prevention trials.
(2016-08)
A case-control study from two randomised breast cancer prevention trials of tamoxifen and raloxifene (P-1 and P-2) identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in or near genes ZNF423 and CTSO as factors which predict ...
Timing of pubertal stages and breast cancer risk: the Breakthrough Generations Study.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2014-02-04)
INTRODUCTION: Breast development and hormonal changes at puberty might affect breast cancer risk, but epidemiological analyses have focussed largely on age at menarche and not at other pubertal stages. METHODS: We investigated ...
Genome-wide characterization reveals complex interplay between TP53 and TP63 in response to genotoxic stress.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2014-01-01)
In response to genotoxic stress the TP53 tumour suppressor activates target gene expression to induce cell cycle arrest or apoptosis depending on the extent of DNA damage. These canonical activities can be repressed by ...
Germline mutations in the PAF1 complex gene CTR9 predispose to Wilms tumour.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2014-08-07)
Wilms tumour is a childhood kidney cancer. Here we identify inactivating CTR9 mutations in 3 of 35 Wilms tumour families, through exome and Sanger sequencing. By contrast, no similar mutations are present in 1,000 population ...
