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...

Hydrogel-Based Pre-Clinical Evaluation of Repurposed FDA-Approved Drugs for AML (2023)
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...

The role of extracellular vesicle miRNAs and tRNAs in synovial fibroblast senescence (2022)
Journal Article
Wijesinghe, S. N., Anderson, J., Brown, T. J., Nanus, D. E., Housmans, B., Green, J. A., …Peffers, M. J. (2022). The role of extracellular vesicle miRNAs and tRNAs in synovial fibroblast senescence. Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 9, Article 971621. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmolb.2022.971621

Extracellular vesicles are mediators of intercellular communication with critical roles in cellular senescence and ageing. In arthritis, senescence is linked to the activation of a pro-inflammatory phenotype contributing to chronic arthritis pathogen...

Transcriptomic Analysis of Cardiomyocyte Extracellular Vesicles in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Reveals Differential snoRNA Cargo (2021)
Journal Article
James, V., Nizamudeen, Z. A., Lea, D., Dottorini, T., Holmes, T. L., Johnson, B. B., …Smith, J. G. (2021). Transcriptomic Analysis of Cardiomyocyte Extracellular Vesicles in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Reveals Differential snoRNA Cargo. Stem Cells and Development, 30(24), 1215-1227. https://doi.org/10.1089/scd.2021.0202

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterised by increased left ventricular wall thickness that can lead to devastating conditions such as heart failure and sudden cardiac death. Despite extensive study, the mechanisms mediating many of the asso...
