Clinical utility of reverse phase protein array for molecular classification of breast cancer (2015)
Journal Article

Reverse Phase Protein Array (RPPA) represents a sensitive and high-throughput technique allowing simultaneous quantitation of protein expression levels in biological samples. This study aimed to confirm the ability of RPPA to classify archival formal... Read More about Clinical utility of reverse phase protein array for molecular classification of breast cancer.

Journal Article

An approach to the diagnosis of spindle cell lesions of the breast (2015)
Journal Article

Although most breast spindle cell lesions (BSCLs) are rare, they constitute a wide spectrum of diseases, ranging from reactive processes to aggressive malignant tumours. Despite their varied histogenesis and behaviour, some lesions show an overlap of... Read More about An approach to the diagnosis of spindle cell lesions of the breast.

Clinicopathological and prognostic significance of RECQL5 helicase expression in breast cancers (2015)
Journal Article

RECQL5 is a member of the RecQ family of DNA helicases and has key roles in homologous recombination, base excision repair, replication and transcription. The clinicopathological significance of RECQL5 expression in breast cancer is unknown. In this... Read More about Clinicopathological and prognostic significance of RECQL5 helicase expression in breast cancers.

Nottingham Prognostic Index Plus: validation of a clinical decision making tool in breast cancer in an independent series (2015)
Journal Article

The Nottingham Prognostic Index Plus (NPI+)is a clinical decision making tool in breast cancer (BC) that aims to provide improved patient outcome stratification superior to the traditional NPI. This study aimed to validate the NPI+ in an independent... Read More about Nottingham Prognostic Index Plus: validation of a clinical decision making tool in breast cancer in an independent series.

Chk1 phosphorylated at serine345 is a predictor of early local recurrence and radio-resistance in breast cancer (2015)
Journal Article

Radiation?induced DNA damage activates the DNA damage response (DDR). DDR up?regulation may predict radio?resistance and increase the risk of early local recurrence despite radiotherapy in early stage breast cancers. In 1755 early stage breast cancer...

Breast Neoplasms with Dermal Analogue Differentiation (Mammary Cylindroma): Report of 3 Cases and a Proposal for a New Terminology (2015)
Journal Article

Salivary gland-like and dermal analogue tumours of the breast are rare lesions that can be diagnostically challenging for pathologists. Data on the clinical behaviour and molecular characterisation of these mammary tumours are limited and their desig...

Molecular mechanisms underlying lymphovascular invasion in invasive breast cancer (2015)
Journal Article

Construction of tissue microarrays from core needle biopsies: a systematic literature review (2015)
Journal Article

In some clinical circumstances, core needle biopsy (CNB) may be the only source of material from cancer tissue for diagnostic use. The volume of tissue available in a CNB is low, and opportunities for research use can therefore be limited. The tissue...

Morphogenesis of the papillary lesions of the breast: phenotypic observation (2015)
Journal Article

Papillary lesions of the breast are a heterogeneous group of diseases characterised by the presence epithelial proliferation supported by fibrovascular stalks. Normal breast tissue does not show papillary morphology and the mechanisms underlying papi... Read More about Morphogenesis of the papillary lesions of the breast: phenotypic observation.

Journal Article

The pioneer factor PBX1 is a novel driver of metastatic progression in ERα-positive breast cancer (2015)
Journal Article

Over 30% of ER? breast cancer patients develop relapses and progress to metastatic disease despite treatment with endocrine therapies. The pioneer factor PBX1 translates epigenetic cues and mediates estrogen induced ER? binding. Here we demonstrate t...

Journal Article

DNA repair prognostic index modelling reveals an essential role for base excision repair in influencing clinical outcomes in ER negative and triple negative breast cancers (2015)
Journal Article

Stratification of oestrogen receptor (ER) negative and triple negative breast cancers (TNBCs) is urgently needed. In the current study, a cohort of 880 ER- (including 635 TNBCs) was immuno-profiled for a panel of DNA repair proteins including: Pol β,...

KPNA2 is a nuclear export protein that contributes to aberrant localisation of key proteins and poor prognosis of breast cancer (2015)
Journal Article

Background: It is recognised that modulations of the nuclear import of macromolecules have a role in changing cellular phenotypes and carcinogenesis. We and others have noticed that aberrant subcellular localisation of DNA damage response (DDR) prote...

Markers of progression in early-stage invasive breast cancer: a predictive immunohistochemical panel algorithm for distant recurrence risk stratification (2015)
Journal Article

Accurate distant metastasis (DM) prediction is critical for risk stratification and effective treatment decisions in breast cancer (BC). Many prognostic markers/models based on tissue marker studies are continually emerging using conventional statist...

Small molecule inhibition of group I p21-activated kinases in breast cancer induces apoptosis and potentiates the activity of microtubule stabilizing agents (2015)
Journal Article

Introduction Breast cancer, the most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide among women, is a molecularly and clinically heterogeneous disease. Extensive genetic and epigenetic profiling of breast tumors has recently revealed novel puta...
