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 ...
DIPG Harbors Alterations Targetable by MEK Inhibitors, with Acquired Resistance Mechanisms Overcome by Combinatorial Inhibition.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-03-01)
UNLABELLED: The survival of children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) remains dismal, with new treatments desperately needed. In a prospective biopsy-stratified clinical trial, we combined detailed molecular ...
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 ...
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 ...
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, ...
Selective protection of human cardiomyocytes from anthracycline cardiotoxicity by small molecule inhibitors of MAP4K4.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-07-21)
Given the poor track record to date of animal models for creating cardioprotective drugs, human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hPSC-CMs) have been proposed as a therapeutically relevant human platform to ...
The kinase polypharmacology landscape of clinical PARP inhibitors.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-17)
Polypharmacology plays an important role in defining response and adverse effects of drugs. For some mechanisms, experimentally mapping polypharmacology is commonplace, although this is typically done within the same protein ...
