The KDM5B and KDM1A lysine demethylases cooperate in regulating androgen receptor expression and signalling in prostate cancer (2023)
Journal Article
Metzler, V. M., de Brot, S., Haigh, D. B., Woodcock, C. L., Lothion-Roy, J., Harris, A. E., …Jeyapalan, J. N. (2023). The KDM5B and KDM1A lysine demethylases cooperate in regulating androgen receptor expression and signalling in prostate cancer. Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 11, Article 1116424. https://doi.org/10.3389/fcell.2023.1116424

Histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methylation is key epigenetic mark associated with active transcription and is a substrate for the KDM1A/LSD1 and KDM5B/JARID1B lysine demethylases. Increased expression of KDM1A and KDM5B is implicated in many cancer types...

Insight into imiquimod skin permeation and increased delivery using microneedle pre-treatment (2019)
Journal Article
Al-Mayahy, M. H., Sabri, A. H., Rutland, C. S., Holmes, A., McKenna, J., Marlow, M., & Scurr, D. J. (2019). Insight into imiquimod skin permeation and increased delivery using microneedle pre-treatment. European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics, 139, 33-43. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejpb.2019.02.006

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer in humans. Topical treatment with imiquimod provides a non-invasive, self-administered treatment with relatively low treatment cost. Despite displaying excellent efficacy, imiquimod is only li... Read More about Insight into imiquimod skin permeation and increased delivery using microneedle pre-treatment.

Expression of NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1) is increased in the endometrium of women with endometrial cancer and women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (2017)
Journal Article
Atiomo, W., Shafiee, M. N., Chapman, C., Metzler, V. M., Abouzeid, J., Latif, A., …Mongan, N. P. (2017). Expression of NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1) is increased in the endometrium of women with endometrial cancer and women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Clinical Endocrinology, 87(5), 557-565. https://doi.org/10.1111/cen.13436

OBJECTIVE: Women with a prior history of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have an increased risk of endometrial cancer (EC). AIM: To investigate whether the endometrium of women with PCOS possess gene expression changes similar to those found in EC....

Androgen dependent mechanisms of pro-angiogenic networks in placental and tumor development (2017)
Journal Article
Metzler, V. M., de Brot, S., Robinson, R. S., Jeyapalan, J. N., Rakha, E., Walton, T., …Mongan, N. P. (2017). Androgen dependent mechanisms of pro-angiogenic networks in placental and tumor development. Placenta, 56, 79-85. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.placenta.2017.02.018

The placenta and tumors share important characteristics, including a requirement to establish effective angiogenesis. In the case of the placenta, optimal angiogenesis is required to sustain the blood flow required to maintain a successful pregnancy,...
