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 ...
Noncoding RNAs as novel biomarkers in pancreatic cancer: what do we know?
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2017-02-01)
Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive cancer of the digestive system, which is becoming a serious health problem worldwide. Overall survival for patients with pancreatic cancer is poor, mainly due to a lack of biomarkers to ...
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 ...
Combining Molecularly Targeted Agents: Is More Always Better?
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-03-01)
The concurrent targeting of critical nodes along key signaling pathways with molecularly targeted agents is a rational antitumor strategy, which has had varying degrees of success. Combinatorial challenges include overcoming ...
Maximising the potential of AKT inhibitors as anti-cancer treatments.
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2017-04-01)
PI3K/AKT signalling is commonly disrupted in human cancers, with AKT being a central component of the pathway, influencing multiple processes that are directly involved in tumourigenesis. Targeting AKT is therefore a highly ...
A comprehensive map of molecular drug targets.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-01-01)
The success of mechanism-based drug discovery depends on the definition of the drug target. This definition becomes even more important as we try to link drug response to genetic variation, understand stratified clinical ...
