Modulation of the pre-metastatic bone niche: molecular changes mediated by bone-homing prostate cancer extracellular vesicles (2024)
Journal Article
Brown, T. J., Rutland, C. S., Rutland, C. S., Choi, K. K., Tse, F., Pfeffers, M. J., …James, V. (2024). Modulation of the pre-metastatic bone niche: molecular changes mediated by bone-homing prostate cancer extracellular vesicles. Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 12, Article 1354606. https://doi.org/10.3389/fcell.2024.1354606

Prostate cancer (PCa) is a leading male malignancy worldwide, often progressing to bone metastasis, with limited curative options. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as key players in cancer communication and metastasis, promoting the formatio...

Quantitative expression of oestrogen receptor in breast cancer: Clinical and molecular significance (2023)
Journal Article
Makhlouf, S., Quinn, C., Toss, M., Alsaleem, M., Atallah, N. M., Ibrahim, A., …Rakha, E. A. (2024). Quantitative expression of oestrogen receptor in breast cancer: Clinical and molecular significance. European Journal of Cancer, 197, Article 113473. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejca.2023.113473

Background Oestrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer (BC) patients are eligible for endocrine therapy (ET), regardless of ER immunohistochemical expression level. There is a wide spectrum of ER expression and the response to ET is not uniform...

Characterisation of luminal and triple-negative breast cancer with HER2 Low protein expression (2023)
Journal Article
Atallah, N. M., Haque, M., Quinn, C., Toss, M. S., Makhlouf, S., Ibrahim, A., …Rakha, E. (2023). Characterisation of luminal and triple-negative breast cancer with HER2 Low protein expression. European Journal of Cancer, 195, Article 113371. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejca.2023.113371

Background: Breast cancer (BC) expressing low levels of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2 Low) is an emerging category that needs further refining. This study aims to provide a comprehensive clinico-pathological and molecular profile of...

Encapsulated papillary carcinoma of the breast: does it have a native basement membrane? (2023)
Journal Article
Ghannam, S. F., Rutland, C. S., Allegrucci, C., Mongan, N. P., & Rakha, E. (2023). Encapsulated papillary carcinoma of the breast: does it have a native basement membrane?. Histopathology, 83(3), 376-393. https://doi.org/10.1111/his.14939

Background Encapsulated papillary carcinoma (EPC) is surrounded by a thick fibrous capsule-like structure, which is interpreted as a thickened basement membrane (BM). This study aimed to describe the geometric characteristics of the EPC capsule and... Read More about Encapsulated papillary carcinoma of the breast: does it have a native basement membrane?.

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...
