Journal Article
Stöger, R., Scaife, P., Shephard, F., & Chakrabarti, L. (in press). Elevated 5hmC levels characterize DNA of the cerebellum in Parkinson’s disease. npj Parkinson's Disease, 3(6), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41531-017-0007-3

5-methylcytosine and the oxidation product 5-hydroxymethylcytosine are two prominent epigenetic variants of the cytosine base in nuclear DNA of mammalian brains. We measured levels of 5-methylcytosine and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine by enzyme-linked immu... Read More about Elevated 5hmC levels characterize DNA of the cerebellum in Parkinson’s disease.

Physical and biological characteristics of multi drug resistance (MDR): an integral approach considering pH and drug resistance in cancer (2017)
Journal Article
Omran, Z., Scaife, P., Stewart, S., & Rauch, C. (2017). Physical and biological characteristics of multi drug resistance (MDR): an integral approach considering pH and drug resistance in cancer. Seminars in Cancer Biology, 43, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.semcancer.2017.01.002

The role of the Warburg effect in cancer remains to be elucidated with a resurgence in research efforts over the past decade. Why a cancer cell would prefer to use energy inefficient glycolysis, leading to an alteration of pH both inside and outside...
