Characterizing and targeting PDGFRA alterations in pediatric high-grade glioma.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2016-10-04)Pediatric high-grade glioma (HGG, WHO Grade III and IV) is a devastating brain tumor with a median survival of less than two years. PDGFRA is frequently mutated/ amplified in pediatric HGG, but the significance of this ... -
Characterizing CDK12-Mutated Prostate Cancers.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-09-28)PURPOSE: Cyclin-dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) aberrations have been reported as a biomarker of response to immunotherapy for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Herein, we characterize CDK12-mutated ... -
Characterizing the metabolic fate of (2S, 4R)-4-[18F]fluoroglutamine and its applications in cancer imaging and treatment response monitoring
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-01-31)Glutaminolysis is a crucial pathway to provide the nitrogen source in addition to the carbon source from the glycolysis pathway for proliferating cells. (2S, 4R)-4-[18F]fluoroglutamine (4-[18F]fluoroglutamine) is potentially ... -
ChEMBL: a large-scale bioactivity database for drug discovery.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2012-01-01)ChEMBL is an Open Data database containing binding, functional and ADMET information for a large number of drug-like bioactive compounds. These data are manually abstracted from the primary published literature on a regular ... -
Chemical approaches to targeted protein degradation through modulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.
(PORTLAND PRESS LTD, 2017-03-15)Manipulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system to achieve targeted degradation of proteins within cells using chemical tools and drugs has the potential to transform pharmacological and therapeutic approaches in cancer ... -
Chemosensitivity profiling of osteosarcoma tumour cell lines identifies a model of BRCAness.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-07-13)Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive sarcoma, where novel treatment approaches are required. Genomic studies suggest that a subset of OS, including OS tumour cell lines (TCLs), exhibit genomic loss of heterozygosity (LOH) ... -
Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cell Therapy for Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM).
(MDPI, 2017-09-01)Cancer immunotherapy has now become a recognized approach to treating cancers. In addition to checkpoint blockade, adoptive T cell transfer (ACT) using chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) has shown impressive clinical outcomes ... -
CHK1 Inhibition Is Synthetically Lethal with Loss of B-Family DNA Polymerase Function in Human Lung and Colorectal Cancer Cells.
