Protein kinase CK2 inhibition suppresses neointima formation via a proline-rich homeodomain-dependent mechanism (2017)
Journal Article
Wadey, K., Brown, B., Sala-Newby, G., Jayaraman, P., Gaston, K., & George, S. (2017). Protein kinase CK2 inhibition suppresses neointima formation via a proline-rich homeodomain-dependent mechanism. Vascular Pharmacology, 99, 34--44. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vph.2017.09.004

Neointimal hyperplasia is a product of VSMC replication and consequent accumulation within the blood vessel wall. In this study, we determined whether inhibition of protein kinase CK2 and the resultant stabilisation of proline-rich homeodomain (PRH)...

The enigmatic origin of papillomavirus protein domains (2017)
Journal Article
Puustusmaa, M., Kirsip, H., Gaston, K., & Abroi, A. (2017). The enigmatic origin of papillomavirus protein domains. Viruses, 9(9), https://doi.org/10.3390/v9090240

Almost a century has passed since the discovery of papillomaviruses. A few decades of research have given a wealth of information on the molecular biology of papillomaviruses. Several excellent studies have been performed looking at the long- and sho... Read More about The enigmatic origin of papillomavirus protein domains.

Proline-rich homeodomain protein (PRH/HHEX) is a suppressor of breast tumour growth (2017)
Journal Article
Kershaw, R. M., Roberts, D., Wragg, J., Shaaban, A. M., Humphreys, E., Halsall, J., …Jayaraman, P. (2017). Proline-rich homeodomain protein (PRH/HHEX) is a suppressor of breast tumour growth. Oncogenesis, 6(6), Article e346. https://doi.org/10.1038/oncsis.2017.42

Breast tumours progress from hyperplasia to ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive breast carcinoma (IBC). PRH/HHEX (Proline Rich Homeodomain/Haematopoietically expressed homeobox) is a transcription factor that displays both tumour suppressor...

CK2 abrogates the inhibitory effects of PRH/HHEX on prostate cancer cell migration and invasion and acts through PRH to control cell proliferation (2017)
Journal Article
Siddiqui, Y. H., Kershaw, R. M., Humphreys, E. H., Marcolino de Assis Junior, E., Chaudhri, S., Jayaraman, P., & Gaston, K. (2017). CK2 abrogates the inhibitory effects of PRH/HHEX on prostate cancer cell migration and invasion and acts through PRH to control cell proliferation. Oncogenesis, 6, https://doi.org/10.1038/oncsis.2016.82

PRH/HHEX (Proline Rich Homeodomain protein/Haematopoietically-Expressed Homeobox protein) is a transcription factor that controls cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell migration. Our previous work has shown that in haematopoietic cells Pr...
