The non-invasive biopsy: will urinary proteomics make the renal tissue biopsy redundant? (2009)
Journal Article
Bramham, K., Mistry, H., Poston, L., Chappell, L., & Thompson, A. (2009). The non-invasive biopsy: will urinary proteomics make the renal tissue biopsy redundant?. QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 102(8), https://doi.org/10.1093/qjmed/hcp071

Proteomics is a rapidly advancing technique which gives a functional insight into gene expression in living organisms. Urine is an ideal medium for study as it is readily available, easily obtained and less complex than other bodily fluids. Consider...

Pediatric ependymomas are enigmatic tumors that continue to present a clinical management challenge despite advances in neurosurgery, neuroimaging techniques, and radiation therapy. Difficulty in predicting tumor behavior from clinical and histologic... Read More about Pediatric Ependymoma: Biological Perspectives.

Cellular immortality in brain tumours: an integration of the cancer stem cell paradigm (2009)
Journal Article
Rahman, R., Heath, R., & Grundy, R. (2009). Cellular immortality in brain tumours: an integration of the cancer stem cell paradigm. BBA - Molecular Basis of Disease, 1792(4), 280-288. doi:10.1016/j.bbadis.2009.01.011

Brain tumours are a diverse group of neoplasms that continue to present a formidable challenge in our attempt to achieve curable intervention. Our conceptual framework of human brain cancer has been redrawn in the current decade. There is a gathering...
