Heterocellular gene signatures reveal luminal-A breast cancer heterogeneity and differential therapeutic responses.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-08-02)Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease. Although differences between intrinsic breast cancer subtypes have been well studied, heterogeneity within each subtype, especially luminal-A cancers, requires further ... -
Heterogeneity in global gene expression profiles between biopsy specimens taken peri-surgically from primary ER-positive breast carcinomas.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2016-04-01)BACKGROUND: Gene expression is widely used for the characterisation of breast cancers. Variability due to tissue heterogeneity or measurement error or systematic change due to peri-surgical procedures can affect measurements ... -
Heterogeneous response and progression patterns reveal phenotypic heterogeneity of tyrosine kinase inhibitor response in metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2016-11-14)BACKGROUND: Molecular intratumour heterogeneity (ITH) is common in clear cell renal carcinomas (ccRCCs). However, it remains unknown whether this is mirrored by heterogeneity of drug responses between metastases in the ... -
High inter-follicular spatial co-localization of CD8+FOXP3+ with CD4+CD8+ cells predicts favorable outcome in follicular lymphoma.
(WILEY, 2022-04-22)The spatial architecture of the lymphoid tissue in follicular lymphoma (FL) presents unique challenges to studying its immune microenvironment. We investigated the spatial interplay of T cells, macrophages, myeloid cells ... -
High-Level Clonal FGFR Amplification and Response to FGFR Inhibition in a Translational Clinical Trial.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2016-08-01)UNLABELLED: FGFR1 and FGFR2 are amplified in many tumor types, yet what determines response to FGFR inhibition in amplified cancers is unknown. In a translational clinical trial, we show that gastric cancers with high-level ... -
High-throughput automated scoring of Ki67 in breast cancer tissue microarrays from the Breast Cancer Association Consortium.
(WILEY, 2016-07-01)Automated methods are needed to facilitate high-throughput and reproducible scoring of Ki67 and other markers in breast cancer tissue microarrays (TMAs) in large-scale studies. To address this need, we developed an automated ... -
High-Throughput Molecular Cancer Cell Line Characterization Using Digital Multiplex Ligation-Dependent Probe Amplification for Improved Standardization of in Vitro Research.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-09-01)Tumor cell lines are widely used for cancer research, but challenges regarding quality control of cell line identity, cross contamination, and tumor somatic molecular stability remain, demanding novel approaches beyond ... -
Histamine signaling and metabolism identify potential biomarkers and therapies for lymphangioleiomyomatosis.
(WILEY, 2021-09-07)Inhibition of mTOR is the standard of care for lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). However, this therapy has variable tolerability and some patients show progressive decline of lung function despite treatment. LAM diagnosis ... -
Histone Code and Higher-Order Chromatin Folding: A Hypothesis.
(Kernel Press UG (haftungsbeschrankt), 2017-01-01)Histone modifications alone or in combination are thought to modulate chromatin structure and function; a concept termed histone code. By combining evidence from several studies, we investigated if the histone code can ... -
Histone H3.3K27M Mobilizes Multiple Cancer/Testis (CT) Antigens in Pediatric Glioma.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-04-01)Lysine to methionine mutations at position 27 (K27M) in the histone H3 (H3.3 and H3.1) are highly prevalent in pediatric high-grade gliomas (HGG) that arise in the midline of the central nervous system. H3K27M perturbs the ... -
HNF4A and GATA6 Loss Reveals Therapeutically Actionable Subtypes in Pancreatic Cancer.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-05-12)Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) can be divided into transcriptomic subtypes with two broad lineages referred to as classical (pancreatic) and squamous. We find that these two subtypes are driven by distinct metabolic ... -
Homologous recombination DNA repair deficiency and PARP inhibition activity in primary triple negative breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-05-29)Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) encompasses molecularly different subgroups, with a subgroup harboring evidence of defective homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair. Here, within a phase 2 window clinical trial, RIO ... -
Hotspot SF3B1 mutations induce metabolic reprogramming and vulnerability to serine deprivation.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2019-08-08)Cancer-associated mutations in the spliceosome gene SF3B1 create a neomorphic protein that produces aberrant mRNA splicing in hundreds of genes, but the ensuing biologic and therapeutic consequences of this missplicing are ... -
HOX genes promote cell proliferation and are potential therapeutic targets in adrenocortical tumours.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021-02-16)BACKGROUND: Understanding the pathways that drive adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is essential to the development of more effective therapies. This study investigates the role of the transcription factor HOXB9 and other HOX ... -
HSF1 Is Essential for Myeloma Cell Survival and A Promising Therapeutic Target.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-05-15)Purpose: Myeloma is a plasma cell malignancy characterized by the overproduction of immunoglobulin, and is therefore susceptible to therapies targeting protein homeostasis. We hypothesized that heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) ... -
Hypoxia and its therapeutic possibilities in paediatric cancers.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-02-02)In tumours, hypoxia-a condition in which the demand for oxygen is higher than its availability-is well known to be associated with reduced sensitivity to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and with immunosuppression. The ... -
Hypoxic Environment and Paired Hierarchical 3D and 2D Models of Pediatric H3.3-Mutated Gliomas Recreate the Patient Tumor Complexity.
(MDPI, 2019-11-26)BACKGROUND: Pediatric high-grade gliomas (pHGGs) are facing a very dismal prognosis and representative pre-clinical models are needed for new treatment strategies. Here, we examined the relevance of collecting functional, ... -
Identification of 19 new risk loci and potential regulatory mechanisms influencing susceptibility to testicular germ cell tumor.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-07-01)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed understanding of susceptibility to testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), but much of the heritability remains unexplained. Here we report a new GWAS, a meta-analysis ...
