HOXC8 regulates self-renewal, differentiation and transformation of breast cancer stem cells (2017)
Journal Article
Shah, M., Cardenas, R., Wang, B., Persson, J., Mongan, N. P., Grabowska, A. M., & Allegrucci, C. (2017). HOXC8 regulates self-renewal, differentiation and transformation of breast cancer stem cells. Molecular Cancer, 16(38), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12943-017-0605-z

Background: Homeobox genes are master regulators of cell fate during embryonic development and their expression is altered in cancer. By regulating the balance between cell proliferation and differentiation, they maintain homeostasis of normal tissue...

Regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor in prostate cancer (2015)
Journal Article
de Brot, S., Ntekim, A., Cardenas, R., James, V., Allegrucci, C., Heery, D. M., …Mongan, N. P. (2015). Regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor in prostate cancer. Endocrine-Related Cancer, 22(3), Article R107-R123. https://doi.org/10.1530/ERC-15-0123

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common malignancy affecting men in the western world. Although radical prostatectomy and radiation therapy can successfully treat PCa in the majority of patients, up to ?30% will experience local recurrence or metast...

Interactions between FGF18 and retinoic acid regulate differentiation of chick embryo limb myoblasts (2014)
Journal Article
Mok, G. F., Cardenas, R., Anderton, H., Campbell, K. H., & Sweetman, D. (2014). Interactions between FGF18 and retinoic acid regulate differentiation of chick embryo limb myoblasts. Developmental Biology, 396(2), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ydbio.2014.10.004

During limb development Pax3 positive myoblasts delaminate from the hypaxial dermomyotome of limb level somites and migrate into the limb bud where they form the dorsal and ventral muscle masses. Only then do they begin to differentiate and express m... Read More about Interactions between FGF18 and retinoic acid regulate differentiation of chick embryo limb myoblasts.
