Voltage imaging reveals the dynamic electrical signatures of human breast cancer cells.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-11-11)
Cancer cells feature a resting membrane potential (Vm) that is depolarized compared to normal cells, and express active ionic conductances, which factor directly in their pathophysiological behavior. Despite similarities ...
Proteomic characterisation of triple negative breast cancer cells following CDK4/6 inhibition.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-07-11)
When used in combination with hormone treatment, Palbociclib prolongs progression-free survival of patients with hormone receptor positive breast cancer. Mechanistically, Palbociclib inhibits CDK4/6 activity but the basis ...
Arresting metastasis within the microcirculation.
(SPRINGER, 2021-07-09)
The behaviour of circulating tumour cells in the microcirculation remains poorly understood. Growing evidence suggests that biomechanical adaptations and interactions with blood components, i.e. immune cells and platelets ...
Accelerating Live Single-Cell Signalling Studies.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2017-05-01)
The dynamics of signalling networks that couple environmental conditions with cellular behaviour can now be characterised in exquisite detail using live single-cell imaging experiments. Recent improvements in our abilities ...
Proteomics profiling of interactome dynamics by colocalisation analysis (COLA).
(ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, 2016-12-20)
Localisation and protein function are intimately linked in eukaryotes, as proteins are localised to specific compartments where they come into proximity of other functionally relevant proteins. Significant co-localisation ...
Multiparametric Analysis of Cell Shape Demonstrates that β-PIX Directly Couples YAP Activation to Extracellular Matrix Adhesion.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-01-25)
Mechanical signals from the extracellular matrix (ECM) and cellular geometry regulate the nuclear translocation of transcriptional regulators such as Yes-associated protein (YAP). Elucidating how physical signals control ...
Identification of clinically predictive metagenes that encode components of a network coupling cell shape to transcription by image-omics.
(COLD SPRING HARBOR LAB PRESS, PUBLICATIONS DEPT, 2017-02-01)
The associations between clinical phenotypes (tumor grade, survival) and cell phenotypes, such as shape, signaling activity, and gene expression, are the basis for cancer pathology, but the mechanisms explaining these ...
Single-Cell Dynamics Determines Response to CDK4/6 Inhibition in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-09-15)
Purpose: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous subgroup of breast cancer that is associated with a poor prognosis. We evaluated the activity of CDK4/6 inhibitors across the TNBC subtypes and investigated ...
RNAi screens for Rho GTPase regulators of cell shape and YAP/TAZ localisation in triple negative breast cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-03-01)
In order to metastasise, triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) must make dynamic changes in cell shape. The shape of all eukaryotic cells is regulated by Rho Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factors (RhoGEFs), which activate ...
DNA damage during S-phase mediates the proliferation-quiescence decision in the subsequent G1 via p21 expression.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-03-20)
Following DNA damage caused by exogenous sources, such as ionizing radiation, the tumour suppressor p53 mediates cell cycle arrest via expression of the CDK inhibitor, p21. However, the role of p21 in maintaining genomic ...
