N-terminal Domain of Prion Protein Directs Its Oligomeric Association (2014)
Journal Article
Trevitt, C. R., Hosszu, L. L., Batchelor, M., Panico, S., Terry, C., Nicoll, A. J., …Clarke, A. R. (2014). N-terminal Domain of Prion Protein Directs Its Oligomeric Association. Journal of Biological Chemistry, 289(37), 25497-25508. https://doi.org/10.1074/jbc.m114.566588

The self-association of prion protein (PrP) is a critical step in the pathology of prion diseases. It is increasingly recognized that small non-fibrillar β-sheet-rich oligomers of PrP may be of crucial importance in the prion disease process. Here, w...

Expression of Arginase I in Myeloid Cells Limits Control of Residual Disease after Radiation Therapy of Tumors in Mice (2014)
Journal Article
Crittenden, M. R., Savage, T., Cottam, B., Baird, J., Rodriguez, P. C., Newell, P., …Gough, M. J. (2014). Expression of Arginase I in Myeloid Cells Limits Control of Residual Disease after Radiation Therapy of Tumors in Mice. Radiation Research, 182(2), 182-190. https://doi.org/10.1667/rr13493.1

An accumulating body of evidence demonstrates that radiation therapy can generate adaptive immune responses that contribute to tumor control. However, in the absence of additional immune therapy, the adaptive immune response is insufficient to preven...
