Combined MYC and P53 defects emerge at medulloblastoma relapse and define rapidly progressive, therapeutically targetable disease.
Hill, RM; Kuijper, S; Lindsey, JC; Petrie, K; Schwalbe, EC; et al. (CELL PRESS, 2015-01-12)We undertook a comprehensive clinical and biological investigation of serial medulloblastoma biopsies obtained at diagnosis and relapse. Combined MYC family amplifications and P53 pathway defects commonly emerged at relapse, ... -
Evaluation of the Response of Intracranial Xenografts to VEGF Signaling Inhibition Using Multiparametric MRI.
Boult, JKR; Box, G; Vinci, M; Perryman, L; Eccles, SA; et al. (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2017-09-01)Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) is considered one of the most important factors in tumor angiogenesis, and consequently, a number of therapeutics have been developed to inhibit VEGF signaling. Therapeutic ... -
Infant High-Grade Gliomas Comprise Multiple Subgroups Characterized by Novel Targetable Gene Fusions and Favorable Outcomes.
Clarke, M; Mackay, A; Ismer, B; Pickles, JC; Tatevossian, RG; et al. (AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-07-01)Infant high-grade gliomas appear clinically distinct from their counterparts in older children, indicating that histopathologic grading may not accurately reflect the biology of these tumors. We have collected 241 cases ... -
Investigating intracranial tumour growth patterns with multiparametric MRI incorporating Gd-DTPA and USPIO-enhanced imaging.
Boult, JKR; Borri, M; Jury, A; Popov, S; Box, G; et al. (WILEY, 2016-11-01)High grade and metastatic brain tumours exhibit considerable spatial variations in proliferation, angiogenesis, invasion, necrosis and oedema. Vascular heterogeneity arising from vascular co-option in regions of invasive ... -
Investigating the Contribution of Collagen to the Tumor Biomechanical Phenotype with Noninvasive Magnetic Resonance Elastography.
Li, J; Zormpas-Petridis, K; Boult, JKR; Reeves, EL; Heindl, A; et al. (AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-11-15)Increased stiffness in the extracellular matrix (ECM) contributes to tumor progression and metastasis. Therefore, stromal modulating therapies and accompanying biomarkers are being developed to target ECM stiffness. Magnetic ... -
Noninvasive MRI Native T1 Mapping Detects Response to MYCN-targeted Therapies in the Th-MYCN Model of Neuroblastoma.
Zormpas-Petridis, K; Poon, E; Clarke, M; Jerome, NP; Boult, JKR; et al. (AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-08-15)Noninvasive early indicators of treatment response are crucial to the successful delivery of precision medicine in children with cancer. Neuroblastoma is a common solid tumor of young children that arises from anomalies ... -
Pre-clinical imaging of transgenic mouse models of neuroblastoma using a dedicated 3-element solenoid coil on a clinical 3T platform.
Almeida, GS; Panek, R; Hallsworth, A; Webber, H; Papaevangelou, E; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-09-05)BACKGROUND: The use of clinical MRI scanners to conduct pre-clinical research facilitates comparisons with clinical studies. Here the utility and sensitivity of anatomical and functional MRI data/biomarkers acquired from ... -
Preclinical transgenic and patient-derived xenograft models recapitulate the radiological features of human adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma.
Boult, JKR; Apps, JR; Hölsken, A; Hutchinson, JC; Carreno, G; et al. (WILEY, 2018-07-01)To assess the clinical relevance of transgenic and patient-derived xenograft models of adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) using serial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and high resolution post-mortem microcomputed ... -
SHH pathway inhibition is protumourigenic in adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma.
Carreno, G; Boult, JKR; Apps, J; Gonzalez-Meljem, JM; Haston, S; et al. (BIOSCIENTIFICA LTD, 2019-03-01)Pharmacological inhibition of the sonic hedgehog (SHH) pathway can be beneficial against certain cancers but detrimental in others. Adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) is a relevant pituitary tumour, affecting children ...
