Journal Article
Griesinger, A., Riemondy, K., Donson, A., Willard, N., Prince, E., Harris, F., Amani, V., Grimaldo, E., Hankinson, T., Grundy, R., Jackson, A., Foreman, N., & Ritzmann, T. (2021). EPEN-07. SINGLE-CELL RNA SEQUENCING IDENTIFIES A UNIQUE MYELOID SUBPOPULATION ASSOCIATED WITH MESENCHYMAL TUMOR SUBPOPULATION IN POOR OUTCOME PEDIATRIC EPENDYMOMA. Neuro-Oncology, 23(Supplement 1), i14-i15. https://doi.org/10.1093/neuonc/noab090.057

We have previously shown immune gene phenotype variations between posterior fossa ependymoma subgroups. PFA1 tumors chronically secrete IL-6, which induces secretion of myeloid cell IL-8 and pushes the infiltrating myeloid cells to an immune suppress... Read More about EPEN-07.

We have previously shown the importance of immune factors in posterior fossa ependymoma (PF EPN). Recently, we found eight transcriptionally unique subpopulations of myeloid cells infiltrating PF EPN with one population particularly enriched in PFA1... Read More about EPEN-08.

Annals of Diagnostic Pathology, 51, Article 151696. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anndiagpath.2020.151696

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 member A1 (ALDH1A1) is one of the most well studied breast cancer stem cells. Its expression has been associated with poor clinicopathological features and clinical outcomes in several studies. This paper studies the expressi...

Epen-23. A computational analysis of the tumour immune microenvironment in paediatric ependymoma (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ritzmann, T., Lourdusamy, A., Jackson, A., Storer, L., Donson, A., Griesinger, A., Foreman, N., Rogers, H., & Grundy, R. Epen-23. A computational analysis of the tumour immune microenvironment in paediatric ependymoma

Ependymoma is the third commonest childhood brain tumour. Relapse is frequent, often fatal and current therapeutic strategies are inadequate. Previous ependymoma research describes an immunosuppressive environment with T-cell exhaustion, indicating a... Read More about Epen-23. A computational analysis of the tumour immune microenvironment in paediatric ependymoma.

Epen-22. Single-cell RNA sequencing identifies upregulation of IKZF1 in PFA2 myeloid subpopulation driving an anti-tumor phenotype (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Griesinger, A., Prince, E., Donson, A., Riemondy, K., Ritzman, T., Harris, F., Amani, V., Handler, M., Hankinson, T., Grundy, R., Jackson, A., & Foreman, N. Epen-22. Single-cell RNA sequencing identifies upregulation of IKZF1 in PFA2 myeloid subpopulation driving an anti-tumor phenotype

We have previously shown immune gene phenotype variations between posterior fossa ependymoma subgroups. PFA1 tumors chronically secrete IL-6, which pushes the infiltrating myeloid cells to an immune suppressive function. In contrast, PFA2 tumors have... Read More about Epen-22. Single-cell RNA sequencing identifies upregulation of IKZF1 in PFA2 myeloid subpopulation driving an anti-tumor phenotype.

Impaired circulating myeloid CD1c+ dendritic cell function in human glioblastoma is restored by p38 inhibition - implications for the next generation of DC vaccines (2019)
Journal Article
Adhikaree, J., Franks, H. A., Televantos, C., Vaghela, P., Kaur, A. P., Walker, D., Schmitz, M., Jackson, A., & Patel, P. M. (2019). Impaired circulating myeloid CD1c+ dendritic cell function in human glioblastoma is restored by p38 inhibition - implications for the next generation of DC vaccines. OncoImmunology, 8(7), 1-12. https://doi.org/10.1080/2162402X.2019.1593803

Current treatments for glioblastoma (GBM) have limited efficacy and significant morbidity and therefore new strategies are urgently needed. Dendritic cells have the power to create anti-tumour immune responses. The greater potency of circulating den...

Connexin 43 is an independent predictor of patient outcome in breast cancer patients (2018)
Journal Article
Chasampalioti, M., Green, A. R., Ellis, I. O., Rakha, E. A., Jackson, A. M., Spendlove, I., & Ramage, J. M. (2019). Connexin 43 is an independent predictor of patient outcome in breast cancer patients. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 174(1), 93-102. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10549-018-5063-9

Purpose

Gap junctions are specialized membrane structures that form channels between adjacent cells allowing cell communication. Gap junctions and specifically Connexin 43 (Cx43) are down-regulated in cancer; however, there are contrasting reports...

Lymphovascular invasion (LVI), encompassing blood and lymphatic vessel invasion, is an important event in tumourigenesis. Macrophages within the tumour microenvironment are linked to the presence of LVI and angiogenesis. This study investigates the r...
