Blood platelets stimulate cancer extravasation through TGFβ-mediated downregulation of PRH/HHEX (2020)
Journal Article
Marcolino De Assis, E., Siddiqui, Y. H., van den Bosch, M., Poole, A. W., Jayaraman, P.-S., & Gaston, K. (2020). Blood platelets stimulate cancer extravasation through TGFβ-mediated downregulation of PRH/HHEX. Oncogenesis, 9, Article 10. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41389-020-0189-0

Cancer cells go through a process known as epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) during which they acquire the ability to migrate and invade extracellular matrix. Some cells also acquire the ability to move across a layer of endothelial cells to en...

Co-Expression Effect of SLC7A5/SLC3A2 to Predict Response to Endocrine Therapy in Oestrogen-Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 21(4), Article 1407. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms21041407

The majority of breast cancers are oestrogen receptor positive (ER+) and are subject to endocrine therapy however, an unpredictable subgroup of patients will develop resistance to endocrine therapy. SLC7A5/SLC3A2 complex is a major route for the tran... Read More about Co-Expression Effect of SLC7A5/SLC3A2 to Predict Response to Endocrine Therapy in Oestrogen-Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer.

XRCC1 deficient triple negative breast cancers are sensitive to ATR, ATM and Wee1 inhibitor either alone or in combination with olaparib (2020)
Journal Article
Ali, R., Alblihy, A., Toss, M. S., Algethami, M., Al Sunni, R., Green, A. R., Rakha, E. A., & Madhusudan, S. (2020). XRCC1 deficient triple negative breast cancers are sensitive to ATR, ATM and Wee1 inhibitor either alone or in combination with olaparib. Therapeutic Advances in Medical Oncology, 12, 175883592097420. https://doi.org/10.1177/1758835920974201

Background: PARP inhibitor (PARPi) monotherapy is a new strategy in BRCA germ-line deficient triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, not all patients respond, and the development of resistance limits the use of PARPi monotherapy. Therefore, th...

The tumor-stroma ratio (TSR) was evaluated as a promising parameter for breast cancer prognostication in clinically relevant subgroups of patients. The TSR was assessed on hematoxylin and eosin stained tissue slides of 1794 breast cancer patients fro...
