Unconventional role of RAC1 in MET-driven anchorage-independent tumor growth.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2020-08-18)
We reported that RAC1 is a master regulator of cell migration and anchorage-independent growth, downstream of the oncogenic Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) MET. RAC1 growth-promoting role is guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase)- ...
The relative importance of factors predicting outcome for myeloma patients at different ages: results from 3894 patients in the Myeloma XI trial.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-02-01)
Disease factors such as tumor burden and molecular risk affect myeloma patient outcomes as well as patient factors that impact the capacity to deliver treatment. How the relative importance of these factors changes with ...
De novo phosphatidylcholine synthesis is required for autophagosome membrane formation and maintenance during autophagy.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2020-06)
UNLABELLED: Macroautophagy/autophagy can enable cancer cells to withstand cellular stress and maintain bioenergetic homeostasis by sequestering cellular components into newly formed double-membrane vesicles destined for ...
Radiological evaluation of malignant pleural mesothelioma - defining distant metastatic disease.
(BMC, 2020-12-09)
BACKGROUND: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is traditionally characterized by local destructive spread of the pleura and surrounding tissues. Patient outcomes in MPM with distant metastatic dissemination are lacking. ...
HER-3 Expression and MEK Activation in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
(Research Square, 2020-08-26)
<h4>Background: </h4> HER-3 has a role in pathogenesis and development of resistance to targeted therapies in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MethodsWe analysed tumour samples from 45 patients with adenocarcinoma of ...

(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2020-02-20)
INTRODUCTION: Acoustic cluster therapy (ACT) comprises co-administration of a formulation containing microbubble/microdroplet clusters (PS101), together with a regular medicinal drug (e.g., a chemotherapeutic) and local ...
A phase I dose-escalation study of enzalutamide in combination with the AKT inhibitor AZD5363 (capivasertib) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2020-02-21)
BACKGROUND: Activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway through loss of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) occurs in approximately 50% of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Recent evidence ...
Molecular and immunological features of a prolonged exceptional responder with malignant pleural mesothelioma treated initially and rechallenged with pembrolizumab.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-03-01)
BACKGROUND: This case represents an exceptional response to pembrolizumab in a patient with epithelioid mesothelioma with a further response on rechallenge. CASE PRESENTATION: A 77-year-old woman with advanced epithelioid ...
PDBe-KB: a community-driven resource for structural and functional annotations.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2020-01-08)
