Individual patient oesophageal cancer 3D models for tailored treatment (2016)
Journal Article
Saunders, J. H., Onion, D., Collier, P., Dorrington, M. S., Argent, R. H., Clarke, P. A., …Grabowska, A. M. (2017). Individual patient oesophageal cancer 3D models for tailored treatment. Oncotarget, 8(15), 24224-24236. https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.12500

Background: A model to predict chemotherapy response would provide a marked clinical benefit, enabling tailored treatment of oesophageal cancer, where less than half of patients respond to the routinely administered chemotherapy. Methods: Cancer cel... Read More about Individual patient oesophageal cancer 3D models for tailored treatment.

Mutational signatures in esophageal adenocarcinoma define etiologically distinct subgroups with therapeutic relevance (2016)
Journal Article
Secrier, M., Li, X., de Silva, N., Eldridge, M. D., Contino, G., Bornschein, J., …Grimmond, S. M. (2016). Mutational signatures in esophageal adenocarcinoma define etiologically distinct subgroups with therapeutic relevance. Nature Genetics, 48(10), https://doi.org/10.1038/ng.3659

Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) has a poor outcome, and targeted therapy trials have thus far been disappointing owing to a lack of robust stratification methods. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) analysis of 129 cases demonstrated that this is a heterog...

The influence of nanotexturing of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) films upon human ovarian cancer cell attachment (2016)
Journal Article
Ya?ayan, G., Xue, X., Collier, P., Clarke, P., Alexander, M. R., & Marlow, M. (2016). The influence of nanotexturing of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) films upon human ovarian cancer cell attachment. Nanotechnology, 27(25), https://doi.org/10.1088/0957-4484/27/25/255102

In this study, we have produced nanotextured poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) films by using polystyrene (PS) particles as a template to make a polydimethylsiloxane mould against which PLGA is solvent cast. Biocompatible, biodegradable and nanote... Read More about The influence of nanotexturing of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) films upon human ovarian cancer cell attachment.
