Second malignancies in the context of lenalidomide treatment: an analysis of 2732 myeloma patients enrolled to the Myeloma XI trial.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-12-09)
We have carried out the largest randomised trial to date of newly diagnosed myeloma patients, in which lenalidomide has been used as an induction and maintenance treatment option and here report its impact on second primary ...
Synthesis of a Ribose-Incorporating Medium Ring Scaffold via a Challenging Ring-Closing Metathesis Reaction.
(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2016-09-01)
A practical synthesis of a novel oxabicyclo[6.2.1]undecenetriol useful as a medicinal chemistry scaffold has been developed starting from l-ribose. The sequence involves an oxidation/Grignard addition sequence and a ...
DNA replication stress mediates APOBEC3 family mutagenesis in breast cancer.
(BMC, 2016-09-15)
BACKGROUND: The APOBEC3 family of cytidine deaminases mutate the cancer genome in a range of cancer types. Although many studies have documented the downstream effects of APOBEC3 activity through next-generation sequencing, ...
Capillary Microsampling of Mouse Blood in Early Pre-Clinical Studies: A Preferred Alternative to Dried Blood Spot Sampling
(OMICS Publishing Group, 2016-01-01)
Minimizing bias in target selection by exploiting multidisciplinary Big Data and the protein interactome.
(FUTURE SCI LTD, 2016-09-01)
Wnt signalling modulates transcribed-ultraconserved regions in hepatobiliary cancers.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-09-14)
OBJECTIVE: Transcribed-ultraconserved regions (T-UCR) are long non-coding RNAs which are conserved across species and are involved in carcinogenesis. We studied T-UCRs downstream of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in liver cancer. ...
MicroRNA 193b-3p as a predictive biomarker of chronic kidney disease in patients undergoing radical nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2016-11-01)
BACKGROUND: A significant proportion of patients undergoing radical nephrectomy (RN) for clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) develop chronic kidney disease (CKD) within a few years following surgery. Chronic kidney disease ...
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 ...
Structural basis of N-Myc binding by Aurora-A and its destabilization by kinase inhibitors.
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2016-11-29)
Myc family proteins promote cancer by inducing widespread changes in gene expression. Their rapid turnover by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is regulated through phosphorylation of Myc Box I and ubiquitination by the E3 ...
A study of motivations and expectations of patients seen in phase 1 oncology clinics.
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2016-11-15)
BACKGROUND: To better inform clinical practice, this study was aimed at capturing patients' motivations for enrolling in phase 1 trials and at quantifying their expectations of the benefits, risks, and commitment associated ...
