Journal Article
James, J. R., Curd, J., Ashworth, J. C., Abuhantash, M., Grundy, M., Seedhouse, C. H., …Thompson, A. (2023). Hydrogel-Based Pre-Clinical Evaluation of Repurposed FDA-Approved Drugs for AML. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 24(4), Article 4235. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms24044235

In vivo models of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are low throughput, and standard liquid culture models fail to recapitulate the mechanical and biochemical properties of the extracellular matrix-rich protective bone marrow niche that contributes to dru...

Introduction: Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have a 3-fold higher risk of endometrial cancer (EC). Insulin resistance and hyperlipidaemia may be pertinent factors in the pathogenesis of both conditions. The aim of this study was to inves...

Up-regulation of genes involved in the Insulin signalling pathway (IGF1, PTEN and IGFBP1) in the endometrium may link Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and endometrial cancer (2016)
Journal Article
Shafiee, M. N., Seedhouse, C., Mongan, N., Chapman, C., Deen, S., Abu, J., & Atiomo, W. (2016). Up-regulation of genes involved in the Insulin signalling pathway (IGF1, PTEN and IGFBP1) in the endometrium may link Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and endometrial cancer.

BACKGROUND Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynaecological cancer amongst women in the UK. Although previous studies have found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have at least a three-fold increase in endometrial cancer (E...
