SRPK1 maintains acute myeloid leukemia through effects on isoform usage of epigenetic regulators including BRD4 (2018)
Journal Article
Tzelepis, K., De Braekeleer, E., Aspris, D., Barbieri, I., Vijayabaskar, M. S., Liu, W., …Vassiliou, G. S. (2018). SRPK1 maintains acute myeloid leukemia through effects on isoform usage of epigenetic regulators including BRD4. Nature Communications, 9(1), Article 5378. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-07620-0

We recently identified the splicing kinase gene SRPK1 as a genetic vulnerability of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, we show that genetic or pharmacological inhibition of SRPK1 leads to cell cycle arrest, leukemic cell differentiation and prolonge...

Patient reported distress can aid clinical decision making in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: analysis of the PROFILE cohort (2018)
Other
Stewart, I., McKeever, T., Braybrooke, R., Oballa, E., Simpson, J. K., Maher, T. M., …Saini, G. (2018). Patient reported distress can aid clinical decision making in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: analysis of the PROFILE cohort

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive and fatal interstitial lung disease. We aimed to determine if patient response to a palliative assessment survey could predict disease progression or death.

We undertook a cross-sectional study in a U... Read More about Patient reported distress can aid clinical decision making in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: analysis of the PROFILE cohort.

Genetic risk factors for the development of pulmonary disease identified by genome-wide association (2018)
Journal Article
Hall, R., Hall, I. P., & Sayers, I. (2018). Genetic risk factors for the development of pulmonary disease identified by genome-wide association. Respirology, 24(3), 204-214. https://doi.org/10.1111/resp.13436

Chronic respiratory diseases are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) combined affect over 500 million people worldwide. While environmental factors are important in disease progression, as... Read More about Genetic risk factors for the development of pulmonary disease identified by genome-wide association.

Hip fracture outcomes in patients with COPD (2018)
Journal Article
Buss, L., McKeever, T. M., Nightingale, J., Akyea, R., Ollivere, B., Moppett, I., & Bolton, C. E. (2018). Hip fracture outcomes in patients with COPD. British Journal of Anaesthesia, 121(6), 1377-1379. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bja.2018.09.008+hideArticle+Info

Hip fractures are common in patients with COPD and contemporary outcome data is needed. Patients admitted with a hip fracture to one acute trust (2010-2015) were assessed prospectively (UK National Hip Fracture Database audit) and mortality data col...

TAILS proteomics reveals dynamic changes in airway proteolysis controlling protease activity and innate immunity during COPD exacerbations (2018)
Journal Article

AJP - Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, 315(6), L1003-L1014. https://doi.org/10.1152/ajplung.00175.2018

© 2018 the American Physiological Society. Dys-regulated protease activity is thought to cause parenchymal and airway damage in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Multiple proteases have been implicated in COPD, and identifying their subst...

Enhanced oxidative stress in smoking and ex-smoking severe asthma in the U-BIOPRED cohort (2018)
Journal Article

Oxidative stress is believed to be a major driver of inflammation in smoking asthmatics. The U-BIOPRED project recruited a cohort of Severe Asthma smokers/ex-smokers (SAs/ex) and non-smokers (SAn) with extensive clinical and biomarker information ena...

Impact of hydration status on haemodynamics, effects of acute blood pressure lowering treatment, and prognosis after stroke (2018)
Journal Article

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 84(12), 2914-2922. https://doi.org/10.1111/bcp.13761

Background

High blood pressure (BP) is common in acute stroke and associated with poor outcome, but the Efficacy of Nitric Oxide in Stroke (ENOS) trial showed no beneficial effect of antihypertensive treatment in this situation. Antihypertensive a... Read More about Impact of hydration status on haemodynamics, effects of acute blood pressure lowering treatment, and prognosis after stroke.

The vitamin D binding protein axis modifies disease severity in lymphangioleiomyomatosis (2018)
Journal Article
Miller, S., Coveney, C., Johnson, J., Farmaki, A. E., Gupta, N., Tobin, M. D., …Johnson, S. R. (2018). The vitamin D binding protein axis modifies disease severity in lymphangioleiomyomatosis. European Respiratory Journal, 52(5), Article 1801074. https://doi.org/10.1183/13993003.00951-2018

Background: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare disease of women. Decline in lung function is variable making appropriate targeting of therapy difficult. We used unbiased serum proteomics to identify markers associated with outcome in LAM.
