CG7379 and ING1 suppress cancer cell invasion by maintaining cell–cell junction integrity (2021)
Journal Article
Rusu, A. D., Cornhill, Z. E., Coutiño, B. C., Uribe, M. C., Lourdusamy, A., Markus, Z., …Georgiou, M. (2021). CG7379 and ING1 suppress cancer cell invasion by maintaining cell–cell junction integrity. Open Biology, 11(9), Article 210077. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsob.210077

Approximately 90% of cancer-related deaths can be attributed to a tumour's ability to spread. We have identified CG7379, the fly orthologue of human ING1, as a potent invasion suppressor. ING1 is a type II tumour suppressor with well-established role... Read More about CG7379 and ING1 suppress cancer cell invasion by maintaining cell–cell junction integrity.

Mast Cell Tryptase Release Contributes to Disease Progression in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (2021)
Journal Article
Babaei-Jadidi, R., Dongre, A., Miller, S., Castellanos Uribe, M., Stewart, I. D., Thompson, Z. M., …Johnson, S. R. (2021). Mast Cell Tryptase Release Contributes to Disease Progression in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis. American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 204(4), 431-444. https://doi.org/10.1164/rccm.202007-2854OC

Rationale: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a multisystem disease that causes lung cysts and respiratory failure. Loss of TSC (tuberous sclerosis complex) gene function results in a clone of “LAM cells” with dysregulated mTOR (mechanistic target of...

Integrated Metabolomics and Transcriptomics Using an Optimised Dual Extraction Process to Study Human Brain Cancer Cells and Tissues (2021)
Journal Article
Rahman, R., Woodward, A., Pandele, A., Abdelrazig, S., Ortori, C., Khan, I., …Kim, D. (2021). Integrated Metabolomics and Transcriptomics Using an Optimised Dual Extraction Process to Study Human Brain Cancer Cells and Tissues. Metabolites, 11(4), Article 240. https://doi.org/10.3390/metabo11040240

The integration of untargeted metabolomics and transcriptomics from the same population of cells or tissue enhances the confidence in the identified metabolic pathways and understanding of the enzyme–metabolite relationship. Here, we optimised a simu... Read More about Integrated Metabolomics and Transcriptomics Using an Optimised Dual Extraction Process to Study Human Brain Cancer Cells and Tissues.

Evaluating the influence of progesterone concentration and time of exposure on in vitro endometrial decidualisation (2021)
Journal Article
Suthaporn, S., Jayaprakasan, K., Thornton, J. G., Walker, K. F., Castellanos, M., May, S., …Maalouf, W. E. (2021). Evaluating the influence of progesterone concentration and time of exposure on in vitro endometrial decidualisation. Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 528, Article 111242. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mce.2021.111242

This study aimed to evaluate the influence of progesterone (concentration and time of exposure) on endometrial decidualisation using an in vitro model cell line: Human Endometrial Stromal Cells (HESCs). HESCs exposed to progesterone (1 and 10 μM) had... Read More about Evaluating the influence of progesterone concentration and time of exposure on in vitro endometrial decidualisation.
