Myosin heavy chain mRNA isoforms are expressed in two distinct cohorts during C2C12 myogenesis (2011)
Journal Article
Brown, D. M., Parr, T., & Brameld, J. M. (2012). Myosin heavy chain mRNA isoforms are expressed in two distinct cohorts during C2C12 myogenesis. Journal of Muscle Research and Cell Motility, 32(6), 383-390. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10974-011-9267-4

The regulation of muscle fibre transitions has mainly been studied in vivo using conventional histological or immunohistochemical techniques. In order to investigate the molecular regulation of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoform expression in cell cul...

Use of the Affymetrix human GeneChip array and genomic DNA hybridisation probe selection to study ovine transcriptomes (2011)
Journal Article
Graham, N. S., May, S. T., Daniel, Z. C., Emmerson, Z. F., Brameld, J. M., & Parr, T. (2011). Use of the Affymetrix human GeneChip array and genomic DNA hybridisation probe selection to study ovine transcriptomes. Animal, 5(6), 861-866. https://doi.org/10.1017/S1751731110002533

Affymetrix GeneChip microarrays are a powerful tool to study global gene expression profiles and have been used on many species. However, no sheep-specific Affymetrix GeneChip is currently available and the bovine array is fairly limited in its cover...

Calpastatin is associated with lymphovascular invasion in breast cancer (2011)
Journal Article
Storr, S. J., Mohammed, R. A., Woolston, C. M., Green, A. R., Parr, T., Spiteri, I., …Martin, S. G. (2011). Calpastatin is associated with lymphovascular invasion in breast cancer. Breast, 20(5), 413-418. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.breast.2011.04.002

Metastasis of breast cancer is a major contributor to mortality. Histological assessment of vascular invasion (VI) provides important prognostic information and demonstrates that VI occurs predominantly via lymphatics in breast cancer. We sought to e...

The calpain system and cancer (2011)
Journal Article
Storr, S. J., Carragher, N. O., Frame, M. C., Parr, T., & Martin, S. G. (2011). The calpain system and cancer. Nature Reviews Cancer, 11(5), 364-374. https://doi.org/10.1038/nrc3050

The calpains are a conserved family of cysteine proteinases that catalyse the controlled proteolysis of many specific substrates. Calpain activity is implicated in several fundamental physiological processes, including cytoskeletal remodelling, cellu... Read More about The calpain system and cancer.
