The Lineage Determining Factor GRHL2 Collaborates with FOXA1 to Establish a Targetable Pathway in Endocrine Therapy-Resistant Breast Cancer.
(CELL PRESS, 2019-10-22)
Notwithstanding the positive clinical impact of endocrine therapies in estrogen receptor-alpha (ERα)-positive breast cancer, de novo and acquired resistance limits the therapeutic lifespan of existing drugs. Taking the ...
Analysis of tumour ecological balance reveals resource-dependent adaptive strategies of ovarian cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-10-21)
BACKGROUND: Despite treatment advances, there remains a significant risk of recurrence in ovarian cancer, at which stage it is usually incurable. Consequently, there is a clear need for improved patient stratification. ...
Class(y) Dissection of BRAF Heterogeneity: Beyond Non-V600.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-12-01)
Different classes of BRAF mutations are present in colorectal and other cancers. Non-V600 mutations are rare; however, their detection rate will increase as the use of next-generation sequencing ramps up quickly in clinical ...
Targeting cyclooxygenase by indomethacin decelerates progression of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a xenograft model.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2019-11-12)
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) develops in the bone marrow in the vicinity of stromal cells known to promote tumor development and treatment resistance. We previously showed that the cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor ...
Clinical significance of DNA methylation in chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients: results from 3 UK clinical trials
(American Society of Hematology, 2019-08-27)
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients with mutated immunoglobulin heavy-chain genes (IGHV-M), particularly those lacking poor-risk genomic lesions, often respond well to chemoimmunotherapy ...
Training and accreditation standards for pathologists undertaking clinical trial work.
(WILEY, 2019-04-01)
Clinical trials rely on multidisciplinary teams for successful delivery. Pathologists should be involved in clinical trial design from the outset to ensure that protocols are optimised to deliver maximum data collection ...
Menstrual cycle associated changes in hormone-related gene expression in oestrogen receptor positive breast cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-11-15)
The major changes in hormone levels that occur through the menstrual cycle have been postulated to affect the expression of hormone-regulated and proliferation-associated genes (PAGs) in premenopausal ER+ breast cancer. ...
Superpixel-Based Conditional Random Fields (SuperCRF): Incorporating Global and Local Context for Enhanced Deep Learning in Melanoma Histopathology.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2019-10-11)
Computational pathology-based cell classification algorithms are revolutionizing the study of the tumor microenvironment and can provide novel predictive/prognosis biomarkers crucial for the delivery of precision oncology. ...
A Perspective on Polo-Like Kinase-1 Inhibition for the Treatment of Rhabdomyosarcomas.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2019-11-22)
Rhabdomyosarcomas are the most common pediatric soft tissue sarcoma and are a major cause of death from cancer in young patients requiring new treatment options to improve outcomes. High-risk patients include those with ...
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, ...
