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...

A same?day assay predicts apoptotic response to combined BCL?2 and MCL?1 BH3?mimetic targeting in multiple myeloma cells (2020)
Journal Article
Grundy, M., Al?Kaisi, F., Cull, J., Williams, C., Smith, D., & Seedhouse, C. H. (2021). A same?day assay predicts apoptotic response to combined BCL?2 and MCL?1 BH3?mimetic targeting in multiple myeloma cells. eJHaem, 2(1), 40-47. https://doi.org/10.1002/jha2.133

Recent advances in treatment options for multiple myeloma (MM) have positive impact on patient survival. However, there is a short fall of rapid and reliable assays that can predict patient response to novel agents. The anti-apoptotic proteins B-cell...

The multi-kinase inhibitor TG02 overcomes signalling activation by survival factors to deplete MCL1 and XIAP and induce cell death in primary acute myeloid leukaemia cells (2012)
Journal Article
Pallis, M., Abdul-Aziz, A., Burrows, F., Seedhouse, C., Grundy, M., & Russell, N. (2012). The multi-kinase inhibitor TG02 overcomes signalling activation by survival factors to deplete MCL1 and XIAP and induce cell death in primary acute myeloid leukaemia cells. British Journal of Haematology, 159(2), 191-203. https://doi.org/10.1111/bjh.12018

The novel multi-kinase inhibitor TG02 has selectivity against cell cycle and transcriptional cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) as well as fms-like tyrosine kinase receptor-3 (FLT3). Inhibition of transcriptional CDKs preferentially depletes short-lived...

P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein in acute myeloid leukaemia cells treated with the Aurora-B Kinase Inhibitor barasertib-hQPA (2011)
Journal Article
Grundy, M., Seedhouse, C., Russell, N. H., & Pallis, M. (2011). P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein in acute myeloid leukaemia cells treated with the Aurora-B Kinase Inhibitor barasertib-hQPA. BMC Cancer, 11, Article 254. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2407-11-254

Background Aurora kinases play an essential role in orchestrating chromosome alignment, segregation and cytokinesis during mitotic progression, with both aurora-A and B frequently over-expressed in a variety of human malignancies. Over-expression of... Read More about P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein in acute myeloid leukaemia cells treated with the Aurora-B Kinase Inhibitor barasertib-hQPA.

Resistance to spontaneous apoptosis in acute myeloid leukaemia blasts is associated with p-glycoprotein expression and function, but not with the presence of FLT3 internal tandem duplications (2003)
Journal Article
Pallis, M., Turzanski, J., Grundy, M., Seedhouse, C., & Russell, N. (2003). Resistance to spontaneous apoptosis in acute myeloid leukaemia blasts is associated with p-glycoprotein expression and function, but not with the presence of FLT3 internal tandem duplications. British Journal of Haematology, 120(6), 1009-1016. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-2141.2003.04210.x

The ability of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) blasts to survive in culture has been associated with poor patient response to chemotherapy. Other biological factors predicting an adverse outcome include p-glycoprotein (pgp) expression, which is associa...

Flow cytometric measurement of phosphorylated STAT5 in AML: Lack of specific association with FLT3 internal tandem duplications (2003)
Journal Article
Pallis, M., Seedhouse, C., Grundy, M., & Russell, N. (2003). Flow cytometric measurement of phosphorylated STAT5 in AML: Lack of specific association with FLT3 internal tandem duplications. Leukemia Research, 27(9), 803-805. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0145-2126%2803%2900012-2

STAT5 phosphorylation has been noted in 69–95% of AML cases by Western blotting. We used flow cytometry to measure phosphorylated STAT5 on a semi-quantitative scale. The method was validated on K562 cells, which constitutively express phosphorylated...
