The role of spread through air spaces (STAS) in lung adenocarcinoma prognosis and therapeutic decision making.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2020-08-01)
Spread through air spaces (STAS) was included as a novel pattern of invasion in lung adenocarcinoma by the World Health Organization in 2015. Since then, multiple studies have investigated the association of STAS with ...
Evidence for a novel overlapping coding sequence in POLG initiated at a CUG start codon.
(BMC, 2020-03-06)
BACKGROUND: POLG, located on nuclear chromosome 15, encodes the DNA polymerase γ(Pol γ). Pol γ is responsible for the replication and repair of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Pol γ is the only DNA polymerase found in mitochondria ...
Cyclin A triggers Mitosis either via the Greatwall kinase pathway or Cyclin B.
(WILEY, 2020-06-02)
Two mitotic cyclin types, cyclin A and B, exist in higher eukaryotes, but their specialised functions in mitosis are incompletely understood. Using degron tags for rapid inducible protein removal, we analyse how acute ...
Development of a cell-free split-luciferase biochemical assay as a tool for screening for inhibitors of challenging protein-protein interaction targets.
(F1000 Research Ltd, 2020-01-01)
Targeting the interaction of proteins with weak binding affinities or low solubility represents a particular challenge for drug screening. The NanoLuc â ® Binary Technology (NanoBiT â ®) was originally developed to detect ...
The role of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex in the response to DNA double strand breaks.
(ELSEVIER, 2020-09-01)
Mammalian cells possess multiple closely related SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complexes. These complexes have been implicated in the cellular response to DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). Evidence suggests that SWI/SNF ...
Histone isoforms and the oncohistone code.
(CURRENT BIOLOGY LTD, 2020-12-04)
Recent studies have highlighted the potential for missense mutations in histones to act as oncogenic drivers, leading to the term 'oncohistones'. While histone proteins are highly conserved, they are encoded by multigene ...

The impact of restricted length of treatment field and anthropometric factors on selection of head and neck cancer patients for treatment on the MR-Linac.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2020-07-01)
OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the impact of a restricted craniocaudal (CC) field length of <20 cm on the selection of head and neck cancer (HNC) patients who can be treated on the MR-Linac using a single isocentre ...
Derivation of Dose/Volume Constraints for the Anorectum from Clinician- and Patient-Reported Outcomes in the CHHiP Trial of Radiation Therapy Fractionation.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-04-01)
PURPOSE: The CHHiP trial randomized 3216 men with localized prostate cancer (1:1:1) to 3 radiation therapy fractionation schedules: 74 Gy in 37 fractions over 7.4 weeks; 60 Gy in 20 fractions over 4 weeks; and 57 Gy in 19 ...
Evaluation of erectile potency and radiation dose to the penile bulb using image guided radiotherapy in the CHHiP trial.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2020-03-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The penile bulb (PB) dose may be critical in development of post prostate radiotherapy erectile dysfunction (ED). This study aimed to generate PB dose constraints based on dose-volume histograms ...
