Journal Article
Joseph, C., Alsaleem, M. A., Toss, M. S., Kariri, Y. A., Althobiti, M., Alsaeed, S., …Rakha, E. A. (2020). The ITIM-Containing Receptor: Leukocyte-Associated Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor-1 (LAIR-1) Modulates Immune Response and Confers Poor Prognosis in Invasive Breast Carcinoma. Cancers, 13(1), 1-19. https://doi.org/10.3390/cancers13010080

Background: The leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor-1 (LAIR-1) plays a role in immune response homeostasis, extracellular matrix remodelling and it is overexpressed in many high-grade cancers. This study aimed to elucidate the biologica...

Journal Article
Aguiar, J. A., Tremblay, B. J., Mansfield, M. J., Woody, O., Lobb, B., Banerjee, A., …Hirota, J. A. (2020). Gene expression and in situ protein profiling of candidate SARS-CoV-2 receptors in human airway epithelial cells and lung tissue. European Respiratory Journal, 56(3), Article 2001123. https://doi.org/10.1183/13993003.01123-2020

In December 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) emerged, causing the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. SARS-CoV, the agent responsible for the 2003 SARS outbreak, utilises angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (AC...

Molecular Complexity of Lymphovascular Invasion: The Role of Cell Migration in Breast Cancer as a Prototype (2020)
Journal Article
Kariri, Y. A., Aleskandarany, M. A., Joseph, C., Toss, M. S., Kurozumi, S., Mohammed, O. J., …Rakha, E. A. (2020). Molecular Complexity of Lymphovascular Invasion: The Role of Cell Migration in Breast Cancer as a Prototype. Pathobiology, 87, 218–231. https://doi.org/10.1159/000508337

Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) is associated with poor outcome in breast cancer (BC); however, its underlying mechanisms remain ill-defined. LVI in BC develops through complex molecular pathways involving not only the interplay with the surrounding mi...

The prognostic significance of BMI1 expression in invasive breast cancer is dependent on its molecular subtypes (2020)
Journal Article
Althobiti, M., Muftah, A. A., Aleskandarany, M. A., Joseph, C., Toss, M. S., Green, A., & Rakha, E. (2020). The prognostic significance of BMI1 expression in invasive breast cancer is dependent on its molecular subtypes. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 182, 581–589. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10549-020-05719-x

Purpose: BMI-1, which is a major component of the polycomb group complex 1 is an essential epigenetic repressor of multiple regulatory genes and has been identified as a cancer stem cell (CSC) marker in several cancers. However, its role in breast c... Read More about The prognostic significance of BMI1 expression in invasive breast cancer is dependent on its molecular subtypes.

The prognostic significance of immune microenvironment in breast ductal carcinoma in situ (2020)
Journal Article
Toss, M. S., Abidi, A., Lesche, D., Joseph, C., Mahale, S., Saunders, H., …Rakha, E. A. (2020). The prognostic significance of immune microenvironment in breast ductal carcinoma in situ. British Journal of Cancer, 122, 1496–1506. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41416-020-0797-7

Background The role of different subtypes of tumour infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is still poorly defined. This study aimed to assess the prognostic significance of B and T lymphocytes and immune checkpo...
