Wireless electrical–molecular quantum signalling for cancer cell apoptosis (2023)
Journal Article
Jain, A., Gosling, J., Liu, S., Wang, H., Stone, E. M., Chakraborty, S., …Rawson, F. J. (2024). Wireless electrical–molecular quantum signalling for cancer cell apoptosis. Nature Nanotechnology, 19, 106-114. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41565-023-01496-y

Quantum biological tunnelling for electron transfer is involved in controlling essential functions for life such as cellular respiration and homoeostasis. Understanding and controlling the quantum effects in biology has the potential to modulate biol... Read More about Wireless electrical–molecular quantum signalling for cancer cell apoptosis.

Spatially resolved transcriptomic profiles reveal unique defining molecular features of infiltrative 5ALA-metabolizing cells associated with glioblastoma recurrence (2023)
Journal Article
Andrieux, G., Das, T., Griffin, M., Straehle, J., Paine, S. M., Beck, J., …Chakraborty, S. (2023). Spatially resolved transcriptomic profiles reveal unique defining molecular features of infiltrative 5ALA-metabolizing cells associated with glioblastoma recurrence. Genome Medicine, 15, Article 48. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13073-023-01207-1

Background Spatiotemporal heterogeneity originating from genomic and transcriptional variation was found to contribute to subtype switching in isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 wild-type glioblastoma (GBM) prior to and upon recurrence. Fluorescence-guide...

The Regulation of m6A Modification in Glioblastoma: Functional Mechanisms and Therapeutic Approaches (2023)
Journal Article
Deacon, S., Walker, L., Radhi, M., & Smith, S. (2023). The Regulation of m6A Modification in Glioblastoma: Functional Mechanisms and Therapeutic Approaches. Cancers, 15(13), Article 3307. https://doi.org/10.3390/cancers15133307

Glioblastoma is the most prevalent primary brain tumour and invariably confers a poor prognosis. The immense intra-tumoral heterogeneity of glioblastoma and its ability to rapidly develop treatment resistance are key barriers to successful therapy. A...

Evaluation of cannabidiol nanoparticles and nanoemulsion biodistribution in the central nervous system after intrathecal administration for the treatment of pain (2023)
Journal Article
Muresan, P., Woodhams, S., Smith, F., Taresco, V., Shah, J., Wong, M., …Marlow, M. (2023). Evaluation of cannabidiol nanoparticles and nanoemulsion biodistribution in the central nervous system after intrathecal administration for the treatment of pain. Nanomedicine: Nanotechnology, Biology and Medicine, 49, Article 102664. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nano.2023.102664

We investigated how the biodistribution of cannabidiol (CBD) within the central nervous system (CNS) is influenced by two different formulations, an oil-in-water (O/W) nanoemulsion and polymer-coated nanoparticles (PCNPs). We observed that both CBD f...

Stimuli-Responsive Multifunctional Nanomedicine for Enhanced Glioblastoma Chemotherapy Augments Multistage Blood-to-Brain Trafficking and Tumor Targeting (2023)
Journal Article
Martins, C., Araújo, M., Malfanti, A., Pacheco, C., Smith, S. J., Ucakar, B., …Sarmento, B. (in press). Stimuli-Responsive Multifunctional Nanomedicine for Enhanced Glioblastoma Chemotherapy Augments Multistage Blood-to-Brain Trafficking and Tumor Targeting. Small, Article 2300029. https://doi.org/10.1002/smll.202300029

Minimal therapeutic advances have been achieved over the past two decades for glioblastoma (GBM), which remains an unmet clinical need. Here, hypothesis-driven stimuli-responsive nanoparticles (NPs) for docetaxel (DTX) delivery to GBM are reported, w...
