Molecular Characterization of Circulating Tumor DNA in Pediatric Rhabdomyosarcoma: A Feasibility Study.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2022-10-01)
PURPOSE: Rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are rare neoplasms affecting children and young adults. Efforts to improve patient survival have been undermined by a lack of suitable disease markers. Plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) ...
Clinical characteristics and outcomes of IgD myeloma: experience across UK national trials.
(ELSEVIER, 2022-09-13)
Immunoglobulin D (IgD) myeloma is a subtype often considered to have adverse features and inferior survival, but there is a paucity of data from large clinical studies. We compare the clinical characteristics and outcomes ...
Identification of a minority population of LMO2+ breast cancer cells that integrate into the vasculature and initiate metastasis.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2022-11-11)
Metastasis is responsible for most breast cancer-related deaths; however, identifying the cellular determinants of metastasis has remained challenging. Here, we identified a minority population of immature THY1+/VEGFA+ ...
Assessment of Androgen Receptor Splice Variant-7 as a Biomarker of Clinical Response in Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-08-15)
PURPOSE: Therapies targeting the androgen receptor (AR) have improved the outcome for patients with castration-sensitive prostate cancer (CSPC). Expression of the constitutively active AR splice variant-7 (AR-V7) has shown ...
Liquid biopsy for children with central nervous system tumours: Clinical integration and technical considerations.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2022-11-16)
Circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) analysis has the potential to revolutionise the care of patients with cancer and is already moving towards standard of care in some adult malignancies. Evidence for the utility of cfDNA ...
The biguanide polyamine analog verlindamycin promotes differentiation in neuroblastoma via induction of antizyme.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-09-14)
Deregulated polyamine biosynthesis is emerging as a common feature of neuroblastoma and drugs targeting this metabolic pathway such as DFMO are in clinical and preclinical development. The polyamine analog verlindamycin ...
Biological Role of MYCN in Medulloblastoma: Novel Therapeutic Opportunities and Challenges Ahead.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-06-14)
The constitutive and dysregulated expression of the transcription factor MYCN has a central role in the pathogenesis of the paediatric brain tumour medulloblastoma, with an increased expression of this oncogene correlating ...
The 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine Landscape of Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-11-02)
UNLABELLED: Analysis of DNA methylation is a valuable tool to understand disease progression and is increasingly being used to create diagnostic and prognostic clinical biomarkers. While conversion of cytosine to ...
Intrinsic Molecular Subtypes of Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-12-15)
PURPOSE: Although numerous biology-driven subtypes have been described previously in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), unsupervised molecular subtyping based on gene expression has been less studied, ...
Reclassifying tumour cell cycle activity in terms of its tissue of origin.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-08-20)
Genomic alterations resulting in loss of control over the cell cycle is a fundamental hallmark of human malignancies. Whilst pan-cancer studies have broadly assessed tumour genomics and their impact on oncogenic pathways, ...
