Single cell analysis of clonal architecture in acute myeloid leukaemia.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-05-01)We used single cell Q-PCR on a micro-fluidic platform (Fluidigm) to analyse clonal, genetic architecture and phylogeny in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) using selected mutations. Ten cases of NPM1c mutant AML were screened ... -
Single-Cell Analyses of Prostate Cancer Liquid Biopsies Acquired by Apheresis.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-11-15)Purpose: Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have clinical relevance, but their study has been limited by their low frequency.Experimental Design: We evaluated liquid biopsies by apheresis to increase CTC yield from patients ... -
Sirolimus for patients with progressive epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.
(WILEY, 2020-10-27)Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is an ultrarare soft tissue sarcoma with limited literature to guide treatment. The results from a robust retrospective cohort study support the use of sirolimus for patients who have ... -
Sirtuin inhibition is synthetic lethal with BRCA1 or BRCA2 deficiency.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-11-08)PARP enzymes utilise NAD+ as a co-substrate for their enzymatic activity. Inhibition of PARP1 is synthetic lethal with defects in either BRCA1 or BRCA2. In order to assess whether other genes implicated in NAD+ metabolism ... -
Solitary fibrous tumor: molecular hallmarks and treatment for a rare sarcoma.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2021-09-01)Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma subtype which mainly affects adults in the fifth and sixth decades of life. Originally part of a spectrum of tumors called hemangiopericytomas, classification has ... -
SOX9 is a driver of aggressive prostate cancer by promoting invasion, cell fate and cytoskeleton alterations and epithelial to mesenchymal transition.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-01-26)Aggressive lethal prostate cancer is characterised by tumour invasion, metastasis and androgen resistance. Understanding the mechanisms by which localised disease progresses to advanced lethal stages is key to the development ... -
Spatial interplay of lymphocytes and fibroblasts in estrogen receptor-positive HER2-negative breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-04-28)In estrogen-receptor-positive, HER2-negative (ER+HER2-) breast cancer, higher levels of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are often associated with a poor prognosis and this phenomenon is still poorly understood. ... -
Spatial interrogation of tumour microenvironment using artificial intelligence
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-03-06)The tumour microenvironment can provide critical information for disease diagnosis, treatment planning, and prognosis. However, the complexity of its morphological, cellular, and spatial architecture hinders accurate ... -
Spatial localisation of Discoidin Domain Receptor 2 (DDR2) signalling is dependent on its collagen binding and kinase activity.
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2018-06-18)Discoidin Domain Receptor 2 (DDR2) is a collagen-binding receptor tyrosine kinase that initiates delayed and sustained tyrosine phosphorylation signalling. To understand the molecular basis of this unique phosphorylation ... -
Spatial Phenotyping of Tumour Immune Microenvironment in the Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Using Artificial Intelligence
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-02-26)Lung cancer is the second most common cancer type worldwide, with a five-year survival rate of about 20%. The aggressiveness of the disease and the inefficiency of treatment are partially attributed to the intra-tumour ... -
Spatially constrained tumour growth affects the patterns of clonal selection and neutral drift in cancer genomic data.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2019-07-29)Quantification of the effect of spatial tumour sampling on the patterns of mutations detected in next-generation sequencing data is largely lacking. Here we use a spatial stochastic cellular automaton model of tumour growth ... -
Splenic diffuse red pulp small B-cell lymphoma: revision of a series of cases reveals characteristic clinico-pathological features
(FERRATA STORTI FOUNDATION, 2010-07)Background Splenic diffuse red pulp small B-cell lymphoma is an uncommon B-cell lymphoma, now recognized as a provisional entity in the 2008 update of the WHO Classification. Additional work is required to review this ... -
Splicing dysregulation as a driver of breast cancer.
(BIOSCIENTIFICA LTD, 2018-09-01)Breast cancer is known to be a heterogeneous disease driven by a large repertoire of molecular abnormalities, which contribute to its diverse clinical behaviour. Despite the success of targeted therapy approaches for breast ... -
Src Is a Potential Therapeutic Target in Endocrine-Resistant Breast Cancer Exhibiting Low Estrogen Receptor-Mediated Transactivation.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2016-06-16)Despite the effectiveness of endocrine therapies in estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer, approximately 40% of patients relapse. Previously, we identified the Focal-adhesion kinase canonical pathway as a major ... -
Streamlining Detection of Fusion Genes in Colorectal Cancer: Having "Faith" in Precision Oncology in the (Tissue) "Agnostic" Era.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-03-15)The FDA recently granted tissue-agnostic approval for the first-in-class TRK inhibitor larotrectinib for patients whose tumors harbor fusions in neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinases. These fusion genes have a frequency ... -
Stringent and reproducible tetracycline-regulated transgene expression by site-specific insertion at chromosomal loci with pre-characterised induction characteristics
(2007-01-01)Background: The ability to regulate transgene expression has many applications, mostly concerning the analysis of gene function. Desirable induction characteristics, such as low un-induced expression, high induced expression ... -
Stromal cell ratio based on automated image analysis as a predictor for platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer.
(BMC, 2019-02-18)BACKGROUND: Identifying high-risk patients for platinum resistance is critical for improving clinical management of ovarian cancer. We aimed to use automated image analysis of hematoxylin & eosin (H&E) stained sections to ... -
Structural basis of N-Myc binding by Aurora-A and its destabilization by kinase inhibitors.
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2016-11-29)Myc family proteins promote cancer by inducing widespread changes in gene expression. Their rapid turnover by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is regulated through phosphorylation of Myc Box I and ubiquitination by the E3 ... -
