Overexpression of the cancer stem cell marker CD133 confers a poor prognosis in invasive breast cancer (2018)
Journal Article
Joseph, C., Arshad, M., Kurozomi, S., Althobiti, M., Miligy, I. M., Al-Izzi, S., …Rakha, E. A. (2019). Overexpression of the cancer stem cell marker CD133 confers a poor prognosis in invasive breast cancer. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 174(2), 387-399. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10549-018-05085-9

Purpose CD133/ prominin 1 is a cancer stem cell marker associated with cancer progression and patient outcome in a variety of solid tumours, but its role in invasive breast cancer (BC) remains obscure. The current study aims to assess the prognostic... Read More about Overexpression of the cancer stem cell marker CD133 confers a poor prognosis in invasive breast cancer.

Clinicopathological and prognostic significance of Ras association and pleckstrin homology domains 1 (RAPH1) in breast cancer (2018)
Journal Article
Kurozumi, S., Joseph, C., Sonbul, S., Aleskandarany, M. A., Pigera, M., Alsaleem, M., …Rakha, E. A. (2018). Clinicopathological and prognostic significance of Ras association and pleckstrin homology domains 1 (RAPH1) in breast cancer. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 172(1), 61–68. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10549-018-4891-y

BACKGROUND: Ras association and pleckstrin homology domains 1 (RAPH1) is involved in cytoskeleton regulation and re-epithelialisation in invasive carcinoma and therefore may play a key role in carcinogenesis and metastasis. We herein investigated the... Read More about Clinicopathological and prognostic significance of Ras association and pleckstrin homology domains 1 (RAPH1) in breast cancer.

Breast cancer intratumour heterogeneity: current status and clinical implications (2018)
Journal Article
Joseph, C., Papadaki, A., Althobiti, M., Alsaleem, M., Aleskandarany, M. A., & Rakha, E. A. (2018). Breast cancer intratumour heterogeneity: current status and clinical implications. Histopathology, 73(5), (717-731). doi:10.1111/his.13642. ISSN 0309-0167

Breast cancer (BC) is a heterogeneous disease that varies in presentation, morphological features, behaviour, and response to therapy. High?throughput molecular profiling studies have revolutionised our understanding of BC heterogeneity, and have dem...

Saccharomyces cerevisiae-like 1 (SEC14L1) is a prognostic factor in breast cancer associated with lymphovascular invasion (2018)
Journal Article
Sonbul, S. N., Aleskandarany, M. A., Kurozumi, S., Joseph, C., Toss, M. S., Diez-Rodriguez, M., …Rakha, E. A. (in press). Saccharomyces cerevisiae-like 1 (SEC14L1) is a prognostic factor in breast cancer associated with lymphovascular invasion. Modern Pathology, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41379-018-0092-9

Lymphovascular invasion is strongly related to breast cancer metastasis. However, the underlying mechanisms of lymphovascular invasion and its driver molecules in breast cancer remain to be defined. In this study, we explore differential expression o... Read More about Saccharomyces cerevisiae-like 1 (SEC14L1) is a prognostic factor in breast cancer associated with lymphovascular invasion.

Heterogeneity of Tumour Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs) in breast cancer and its prognostic significance (2018)
Journal Article
Althobiti, M., Aleskandarany, M. A., Joseph, C., Toss, M., Mongan, N., Diez-Rodriguez, M., …Rakha, E. A. (2018). Heterogeneity of Tumour Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs) in breast cancer and its prognostic significance. Histopathology, 73(6), 887-896. https://doi.org/10.1111/his.13695

Background: Tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in breast cancer (BC) confer prognostic and predictive information. This study aims to assess the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of TILs in BC and its relationship with immune cell subtypes. Met...

Clinical and biological roles of Kelch-like family member 7 in breast cancer: a marker of poor prognosis (2018)
Journal Article
Kurozumi, S., Joseph, C., Sonbul, S., Gorringe, K. L., Pigera, M., Aleskandarany, M. A., …Rakha, E. A. (in press). Clinical and biological roles of Kelch-like family member 7 in breast cancer: a marker of poor prognosis. Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 170(3), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10549-018-4777-z

Background: The functions of many proteins are tightly regulated with a complex array of cellular functions including ubiquitination. In cancer cells, aberrant ubiquitination may promote the activity of oncogenic pathways with subsequent tumour progr...

Mediator complex (MED) 7: a biomarker associated with good prognosis in invasive breast cancer, especially ER+ luminal subtypes (2018)
Journal Article
Joseph, C., Macnamara, O., Craze, M., Russell, R., Provenzano, E., Nolan, C. C., …Mukherjee, A. (in press). Mediator complex (MED) 7: a biomarker associated with good prognosis in invasive breast cancer, especially ER+ luminal subtypes. British Journal of Cancer, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41416-018-0041-x

Background: Mediator complex (MED) proteins have a key role in transcriptional regulation, some interacting with the oestrogen receptor (ER). Interrogation of the METABRIC cohort suggested that MED7 may regulate lymphovascular invasion (LVI). Thus ME...
