Journal Article
Davis, J., Martin, S. G., Patel, P. M., Green, A. R., Rakha, E. A., Ellis, I. O., & Storr, S. J. (2014). Low calpain-9 is associated with adverse disease-specific survival following endocrine therapy in breast cancer. BMC Cancer, 14(1), https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2407-14-995

Background The calpains are intracellular cysteine proteases that function in a variety of important cellular functions, including signalling, motility, apoptosis and survival. In breast cancer high calpain-1 and calpain-2 expression has been asso...

Involvement of metformin and AMPK in the radioresponse and prognosis of luminal versus basal-like breast cancer treated with radiotherapy (2014)
Journal Article
Zhang, Y., Storr, S. J., Johnson, K., Green, A. R., Rakha, E. A., Ellis, I. O., …Martin, S. G. (2014). Involvement of metformin and AMPK in the radioresponse and prognosis of luminal versus basal-like breast cancer treated with radiotherapy. Oncotarget, 5(24), https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.2683

Metformin is under evaluation as a potential anticancer agent. Expression of total and phospho(Thr172)-adenosine monophosphate-activated kinase-α (AMPKα and pAMPKα(Thr172) respectively), a main metformin target, was examined in radiotherapy treated b...
