Multiple genetic associations with Irish wolfhound dilated cardiomyopathy (2016)
Journal Article

Cardiac disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in dogs and humans, with dilated cardiomyopathy being a large contributor to this. The Irish Wolfhound (IWH) is one of the most commonly affected breeds and one of the few breeds with gene...

m6A potentiates Sxl alternative pre-mRNA splicing for robust Drosophila sex determination (2016)
Journal Article

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common internal modification of eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA) and is decoded by YTH domain proteins1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. The mammalian mRNA m6A methylosome is a complex of nuclear proteins that includes METTL3 (m...

Malignant inflammation in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma: a hostile takeover (2016)
Journal Article

Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) are characterized by the presence of chronically inflamed skin lesions containing malignant T cells. Early disease presents as limited skin patches or plaques and exhibits an indolent behavior. For many patients, the...

TP53 copy number expansion is associated with the evolution of increased body size and an enhanced DNA damage response in elephants (2016)
Journal Article

A major constraint on the evolution of large body sizes in animals is an increased risk of developing cancer. There is no correlation, however, between body size and cancer risk. This lack of correlation is often referred to as 'Peto's Paradox'. Here...

Targeted suppression of AR-V7 using PIP5K1? inhibitor overcomes enzalutamide resistance in prostate cancer cells (2016)
Journal Article

One mechanism of resistance of prostate cancer (PCa) to enzalutamide (MDV3100) treatment is the increased expression of AR variants lacking the ligand binding-domain, the best characterized of which is AR-V7. We have previously reported that Phosphat... Read More about Targeted suppression of AR-V7 using PIP5K1? inhibitor overcomes enzalutamide resistance in prostate cancer cells.

STAT5 induces miR-21 expression in cutaneous T cell lymphoma (2016)
Journal Article

In cutaneous T cell lymphomas (CTCL), miR-21 is aberrantly expressed in skin and peripheral blood and displays anti-apoptotic properties in malignant T cells. It is, however, unclear exactly which cells express miR-21 and what mechanisms regulate miR... Read More about STAT5 induces miR-21 expression in cutaneous T cell lymphoma.

Association of Aromatase With Bladder Cancer Stage and Long-Term Survival: New Insights Into the Hormonal Paradigm in Bladder Cancer (2016)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND Hormonal factors may play a role in bladder cancer (BCa). We investigated the expression of aromatase and estrogen receptor (ER)β and its association with pathological variables and survival outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS BCa spec...

Cyclin A1 and P450 aromatase promote metastatic homing and growth of stem-like prostate cancer cells in the bone marrow (2016)
Journal Article

Bone metastasis is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in prostate cancer (PCa). While cancer stem-like cells have been implicated as a cell of origin for PCa metastases, the pathways which enable metastatic development at distal sites remain... Read More about Cyclin A1 and P450 aromatase promote metastatic homing and growth of stem-like prostate cancer cells in the bone marrow.

The Expression of IL-21 Is Promoted by MEKK4 in Malignant T Cells and Associated with Increased Progression Risk in Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (2016)
Journal Article

Up-regulation of genes involved in the Insulin signalling pathway (IGF1, PTEN and IGFBP1) in the endometrium may link Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and endometrial cancer (2016)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynaecological cancer amongst women in the UK. Although previous studies have found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have at least a three-fold increase in endometrial cancer (E...

Role of NADH Dehydrogenase (Ubiquinone) 1 Alpha Subcomplex 4-Like 2 in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (2016)
Journal Article

PURPOSE We delineated the functions of the HIF1? target NADH Dehydrogenase (Ubiquinone) 1 alpha subcomplex 4-like 2 (NDUFA4L2) in ccRCC and characterized NDUFA4L2 as a novel molecular target for ccRCC treatment. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We evalua... Read More about Role of NADH Dehydrogenase (Ubiquinone) 1 Alpha Subcomplex 4-Like 2 in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin A (SEA) stimulates STAT3 activation and IL-17 expression in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (2016)
Journal Article

Cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) is characterized by proliferation of malignant T cells in a chronic inflammatory environment. With disease progression, bacteria colonize the compromised skin barrier and half of CTCL patients die from infection rathe...
