Journal Article
Abduljabbar, R., Negm, O. H., Lai, C., Jerjees, D. A., Al-Kaabi, M., Hamed, M. R., …Ellis, I. O. (2015). Clinical and biological significance of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) expression in breast cancer. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 150(2), 335-346. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10549-015-3335-1

The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of transcription factors, which exerts anti-proliferative and anti-apoptotic activities. The GR is expressed in a large proportion of breast cancer (BC) although levels... Read More about Clinical and biological significance of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) expression in breast cancer.

Journal Article
Jerjees, D. A., Negm, O. H., Alabdullah, M. L., Mirza, S., Alkaabi, M., Hameed, M. R., …Rakha, E. A. (2015). The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) in breast cancer: the impact of oestrogen receptor and HER2 pathways.

The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a downstream of the PI3K/Akt pathway which affects cancer development. mTORC1 has many downstream signalling effectors that can enhance different cellular responses. This study aims to investiga... Read More about The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) in breast cancer: the impact of oestrogen receptor and HER2 pathways.
