Ran GTPase is an independent prognostic marker in malignant melanoma which promotes tumour cell migration and invasion (2020)
Journal Article

Aims Ran GTPase is involved in nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of proteins and is overexpressed in several cancers. The expression of Ran in malignant melanoma (MM) and its functional activity have not been described and were investigated in this study....

Immuno-Interface Score to Predict Outcome in Colorectal Cancer Independent of Microsatellite Instability Status (2020)
Journal Article

Tumor-associated immune cells have been shown to predict patient outcome in colorectal (CRC) and other cancers. Spatial digital image analysis-based cell quantification increases the informative power delivered by tumor microenvironment features and...

Tensin4 (TNS4) is upregulated by Wnt signalling in adenomas in multiple intestinal neoplasia (Min) mice (2020)
Journal Article

ApcMin/+ mice are regarded as a standard animal model of colorectal cancer (CRC). Tensin4 (TNS4 or Cten) is a putative oncogene conferring features of stemness and promoting motility. Our objective was to assess TNS4 expression in intestinal adenomas... Read More about Tensin4 (TNS4) is upregulated by Wnt signalling in adenomas in multiple intestinal neoplasia (Min) mice.

Investigating TNS4 in the Colorectal Tumor Microenvironment Using 3D Spheroid Models of Invasion (2020)
Journal Article

TNS4 (Tensin 4 or Cten) is a putative oncogene in colorectal cancer (CRC) with a role in regulating cell adhesion, motility, invasion, and epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). The objective is to study the role of TNS4 in CRC using more realis... Read More about Investigating TNS4 in the Colorectal Tumor Microenvironment Using 3D Spheroid Models of Invasion.

Immune-Instructive Polymers Control Macrophage Phenotype and Modulate the Foreign Body Response In Vivo (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Author(s) Implantation of medical devices can result in inflammation. A large library of polymers is screened, and a selection found to promote macrophage differentiation towards pro- or anti-inflammatory phenotypes. The bioinstructive pro...
