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., Ellis, I. O., & 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.

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., Diez-Rodriguez, M., Nolan, C. C., Fujii, T., Shirabe, K., Kuwano, H., Storr, S., Martin, S. G., Ellis, I. O., Green, A. R., & 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...

High nuclear MSK1 is associated with longer survival in breast cancer patients (2018)
Journal Article
Pu, X., Storr, S. J., Ahmad, N., Rakha, E., Green, A. R., Ellis, I. O., & Martin, S. G. (2018). High nuclear MSK1 is associated with longer survival in breast cancer patients. Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology, 144(3), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00432-018-2579-7

Purpose: Mitogen- and stress- activated kinases (MSKs) are important substrates of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-activated protein kinase family. MSK1 and MSK2 are both nuclear serine/threonine protein kinases, with MSK1 being suggested... Read More about High nuclear MSK1 is associated with longer survival in breast cancer patients.

IL-6 and IL-10 are associated with good prognosis in early stage invasive breast cancer patients (2017)
Journal Article
Ahmad, N., Ammar, A., Storr, S. J., Green, A. R., Rakha, E., Ellis, I., & Martin, S. G. (2018). IL-6 and IL-10 are associated with good prognosis in early stage invasive breast cancer patients. Cancer Immunology, Immunotherapy, 67(4), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00262-017-2106-8

Macrophage-associated cytokines play an important role in cancer metastasis however the functions of Interleukins (IL) 6 and 10 in breast cancer (BC) progression and metastasis are not clear. In this study the roles of IL-6/IL-10 in regulating vascul... Read More about IL-6 and IL-10 are associated with good prognosis in early stage invasive breast cancer patients.

Caspase-3 and caspase-8 expression in breast cancer: caspase-3 is associated with survival (2016)
Journal Article
Xuan, P., Storr, S. J., Zhang, Y., Rakha, E., Green, A. R., Ellis, I. O., & Martin, S. G. (in press). Caspase-3 and caspase-8 expression in breast cancer: caspase-3 is associated with survival. Apoptosis, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10495-016-1323-5

Impaired apoptosis is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Caspase-3 and -8 are key regulators of the apoptotic response and have been shown to interact with the calpain family, a group of cysteine proteases, during tumorigenesis. The current study sought...

FKBPL: a marker of good prognosis in breast cancer (2015)
Journal Article
Nelson, L., McKeen, H. D., Ellis, I., Rakha, E., Marshall, A., Mulrane, L., Starczynski, J., Storr, S. J., Lanigan, F., Byrne, C., Arthur, K., Hegarty, S., Abdunnabi Ali, A., Furlong, F., McCarthy, H. O., Ellis, I. O., Green, A. R., Rakha, E., Young, L., Kunkler, I., …Robson, T. (2015). FKBPL: a marker of good prognosis in breast cancer. Oncotarget, 6(14), 12209-12223. https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.3528

FK506-binding protein-like (FKBPL) has established roles as an anti-tumor protein, with a therapeutic peptide based on this protein, ALM201, shortly entering phase I/II clinical trials. Here, we evaluated FKBPL’s prognostic ability in primary breast... Read More about FKBPL: a marker of good prognosis in breast cancer.
