Practice patterns for the radical treatment of nasopharyngeal cancer by head and neck oncologists in the United Kingdom.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2018-05-01)
OBJECTIVE: Advances in radiation delivery, imaging techniques, and chemotherapy have significantly improved treatment options for non-metastatic nasopharyngeal cancers (NPC). However, their impact on the practice in the ...
MRI-based Assessment of 3D Intrafractional Motion of Head and Neck Cancer for Radiation Therapy.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-02-01)
PURPOSE: To determine the 3-dimensional (3D) intrafractional motion of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). METHODS AND MATERIALS: Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance images from 56 patients with HNSCC ...
A comprehensive model for the proliferation-quiescence decision in response to endogenous DNA damage in human cells.
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2018-03-06)
Human cells that suffer mild DNA damage can enter a reversible state of growth arrest known as quiescence. This decision to temporarily exit the cell cycle is essential to prevent the propagation of mutations, and most ...
HER3-Mediated Resistance to Hsp90 Inhibition Detected in Breast Cancer Xenografts by Affibody-Based PET Imaging.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-04-15)
Purpose: Recent studies have highlighted a role of HER3 in HER2-driven cancers (e.g., breast cancer), implicating the upregulation of the receptor in resistance to HER-targeted therapies and Hsp90 inhibitors (e.g., AUY922). ...
Asparagine bioavailability governs metastasis in a model of breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-02-15)
Using a functional model of breast cancer heterogeneity, we previously showed that clonal sub-populations proficient at generating circulating tumour cells were not all equally capable of forming metastases at secondary ...
PLK1 Activation in Late G2 Sets Up Commitment to Mitosis.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-06-06)
Commitment to mitosis must be tightly coordinated with DNA replication to preserve genome integrity. While we have previously established that the timely activation of CyclinB1-Cdk1 in late G2 triggers mitotic entry, the ...
Degron-tagged reporters probe membrane topology and enable the specific labelling of membrane-wrapped structures.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-08-02)
Visualization of specific organelles in tissues over background fluorescence can be challenging, especially when reporters localize to multiple structures. Instead of trying to identify proteins enriched in specific ...
Constitutive regulation of mitochondrial morphology by Aurora A kinase depends on a predicted cryptic targeting sequence at the N-terminus.
(ROYAL SOC, 2018-06-13)
Aurora A kinase (AURKA) is a major regulator of mitosis and an important driver of cancer progression. The roles of AURKA outside of mitosis, and how these might contribute to cancer progression, are not well understood. ...
Quantitative Cell Cycle Analysis Based on an Endogenous All-in-One Reporter for Cell Tracking and Classification.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-05-30)
Cell cycle kinetics are crucial to cell fate decisions. Although live imaging has provided extensive insights into this relationship at the single-cell level, the limited number of fluorescent markers that can be used in ...
EXD2 Protects Stressed Replication Forks and Is Required for Cell Viability in the Absence of BRCA1/2.
(CELL PRESS, 2019-08-08)
Accurate DNA replication is essential to preserve genomic integrity and prevent chromosomal instability-associated diseases including cancer. Key to this process is the cells' ability to stabilize and restart stalled ...
