SRPK1 maintains acute myeloid leukemia through effects on isoform usage of epigenetic regulators including BRD4 (2018)
Journal Article
Tzelepis, K., De Braekeleer, E., Aspris, D., Barbieri, I., Vijayabaskar, M. S., Liu, W., …Vassiliou, G. S. (2018). SRPK1 maintains acute myeloid leukemia through effects on isoform usage of epigenetic regulators including BRD4. Nature Communications, 9(1), Article 5378. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-07620-0

We recently identified the splicing kinase gene SRPK1 as a genetic vulnerability of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, we show that genetic or pharmacological inhibition of SRPK1 leads to cell cycle arrest, leukemic cell differentiation and prolonge...

VEGFC Reduces Glomerular Albumin Permeability and Protects Against Alterations in VEGF Receptor Expression in Diabetic Nephropathy (2018)
Journal Article
Onions, K. L., Gamez, M., Buckner, N. R., Baker, S. L., Betteridge, K. B., Desideri, S., …Foster, R. R. (2019). VEGFC Reduces Glomerular Albumin Permeability and Protects Against Alterations in VEGF Receptor Expression in Diabetic Nephropathy. Diabetes, 68(1), 172-187. https://doi.org/10.2337/db18-0045

Elevated levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) A are thought to cause glomerular endothelial cell (GEnC) dysfunction and albuminuria in diabetic nephropathy. We hypothesized that VEGFC could counteract these effects of VEGFA to protect...

Physiological Role of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factors as Homeostatic Regulators (2018)
Journal Article
Bates, D. O., Beazley-Long, N., Benest, A. V., Ye, X., Ved, N., Hulse, R. P., …Foster, R. R. (2018). Physiological Role of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factors as Homeostatic Regulators. Comprehensive Physiology, 8(3), 955-979. https://doi.org/10.1002/cphy.c170015

The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family of proteins are key regulators of physiological systems. Originally linked with endothelial function, they have since become understood to be principal regulators of multiple tissues, both through...

Vascular endothelial growth factor-A165b restores normal glomerular water permeability in a diphtheria-toxin mouse model of glomerular injury (2018)
Journal Article
Stevens, M., Neal, C. R., Salmon, A. H., Bates, D. O., Harper, S. J., & Oltean, S. (in press). Vascular endothelial growth factor-A165b restores normal glomerular water permeability in a diphtheria-toxin mouse model of glomerular injury. Nephron, https://doi.org/10.1159/000485664

BACKGROUND/AIMS:Genetic cell ablation using the human diphtheria toxin receptor (hDTR) is a new strategy used for analysing cellular function. Diphtheria toxin (DT) is a cytotoxic protein that leaves mouse cells relatively unaffected, but upon bindin...

Respiratory Research, 19, https://doi.org/10.1186/s12931-017-0711-x

Dysregulation of VEGF-A bioavailability has been implicated in the development of lung injury/fibrosis, exemplified by Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). VEGF-A is a target of the hypoxic response via its translational regulation by HIF-1α. The rol...
