Impairment of a distinct cancer-associated fibroblast population limits tumour growth and metastasis.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-06-10)
Profiling studies have revealed considerable phenotypic heterogeneity in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) present within the tumour microenvironment, however, functional characterisation of different CAF subsets is ...
Pineoblastoma segregates into molecular sub-groups with distinct clinico-pathologic features: a Rare Brain Tumor Consortium registry study.
(SPRINGER, 2020-02-01)
Pineoblastomas (PBs) are rare, aggressive pediatric brain tumors of the pineal gland with modest overall survival despite intensive therapy. We sought to define the clinical and molecular spectra of PB to inform new treatment ...
Epigenetically defined therapeutic targeting in H3.3G34R/V high-grade gliomas.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2021-10-13)
High-grade gliomas with arginine or valine substitutions of the histone H3.3 glycine-34 residue (H3.3G34R/V) carry a dismal prognosis, and current treatments, including radiotherapy and chemotherapy, are not curative. ...
The Long Non-Coding RNA H19 Drives the Proliferation of Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma with H3K27 Mutation.
(MDPI, 2021-08-25)
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is an incurable paediatric malignancy. Identifying the molecular drivers of DIPG progression is of the utmost importance. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) represent a large family of ...
Pan RAS-binding compounds selected from a chemical library by inhibiting interaction between RAS and a reduced affinity intracellular antibody.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-01-18)
Intracellular antibodies are valuable tools for target validation studies for clinical situations such as cancer. Recently we have shown that antibodies can be used for drug discovery in screening for chemical compounds ...
Carfilzomib, lenalidomide, dexamethasone, and cyclophosphamide (KRdc) as induction therapy for transplant-eligible, newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients (Myeloma XI+): Interim analysis of an open-label randomised controlled trial.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2021-01-01)
BACKGROUND: Carfilzomib is a second-generation irreversible proteasome inhibitor that is efficacious in the treatment of myeloma and carries less risk of peripheral neuropathy than first-generation proteasome inhibitors, ...
HER3 Is an Actionable Target in Advanced Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-12-15)
It has been recognized for decades that ERBB signaling is important in prostate cancer, but targeting ERBB receptors as a therapeutic strategy for prostate cancer has been ineffective clinically. However, we show here that ...
Targeting the p300/CBP Axis in Lethal Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-05-01)
Resistance to androgen receptor (AR) blockade in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is associated with sustained AR signaling, including through alternative splicing of AR (AR-SV). Inhibitors of transcriptional ...
Optimising the value of immunomodulatory drugs during induction and maintenance in transplant ineligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma: results from Myeloma XI, a multicentre, open-label, randomised, Phase III trial.
(WILEY, 2021-03-01)
Second-generation immunomodulatory agents, such as lenalidomide, have a more favourable side-effect profile than the first-generation thalidomide, but their optimum combination and duration for patients with newly diagnosed ...
Solution structure of the Hop TPR2A domain and investigation of target druggability by NMR, biochemical and in silico approaches.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-09-29)
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a molecular chaperone that plays an important role in tumour biology by promoting the stabilisation and activity of oncogenic 'client' proteins. Inhibition of Hsp90 by small-molecule drugs, ...
