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.

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.

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.

Low expression of G protein-coupled oestrogen receptor 1 (GPER) is associated with adverse survival of breast cancer patients (2018)
Journal Article
Martin, S. G., Lebot, M. N., Sukkarn, B., Ball, G., Green, A. R., Rakha, E. A., …Storr, S. J. (2018). Low expression of G protein-coupled oestrogen receptor 1 (GPER) is associated with adverse survival of breast cancer patients. Oncotarget, 9(40), 25946-25956. https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.25408

G protein-coupled oestrogen receptor 1 (GPER), also called G protein-coupled receptor 30 (GPR30), is attracting considerable attention for its potential role in breast cancer development and progression. Activation by oestrogen (17β-oestradiol; E2) i... Read More about Low expression of G protein-coupled oestrogen receptor 1 (GPER) is associated with adverse survival of breast cancer patients.

Enhancement of CO2 uptake and selectivity in a metal-organic framework by incorporation of thiophene functionality (2018)
Journal Article
Bolotov, V. A., Kovalenko, K. A., Samsonenko, D. G., Han, X., Zhang, X., Smith, G. L., …Schröder, M. (2018). Enhancement of CO2 uptake and selectivity in a metal-organic framework by incorporation of thiophene functionality. Inorganic Chemistry, 57(9), https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.inorgchem.8b00138

The complex [Zn2(tdc)2dabco] (H2tdc = thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylic acid; dabco = 1,4-diazabicyclooctane) shows a remarkable increase in CO2 uptake and CO2/N2 selectivity compared to the non-thiophene analogue [Zn2(bdc)2dabco] (H2bdc = benzene-1,4-dica...

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...
