Precision Medicine and the Role of Biomarkers of Radiotherapy Response in Breast Cancer (2020)
Journal Article
Meehan, J., Gray, M., Martínez-Pérez, C., Kay, C., Pang, L. Y., Fraser, J. A., …Turnbull, A. K. (2020). Precision Medicine and the Role of Biomarkers of Radiotherapy Response in Breast Cancer. Frontiers in Oncology, 10, https://doi.org/10.3389/fonc.2020.00628

Radiotherapy remains an important treatment modality in nearly two thirds of all cancers, including the primary curative or palliative treatment of breast cancer. Unfortunately, largely due to tumor heterogeneity, tumor radiotherapy response rates ca... Read More about Precision Medicine and the Role of Biomarkers of Radiotherapy Response in Breast Cancer.

hASH1 nuclear localization persists in neuroendocrine transdifferentiated prostate cancer cells, even upon reintroduction of androgen (2019)
Journal Article
Fraser, J. A., Sutton, J. E., Tazayoni, S., Bruce, I., & Poole, A. V. (2019). hASH1 nuclear localization persists in neuroendocrine transdifferentiated prostate cancer cells, even upon reintroduction of androgen. Scientific Reports, 9, Article 19076 (2019). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-55665-y

Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) is thought to arise as prostate adenocarcinoma cells transdifferentiate into neuroendocrine (NE) cells to escape potent anti-androgen therapies however, the exact molecular events accompanying NE transdifferentia...

Preferential activation of HIF-2α adaptive signalling in neuronal-like cells in response to acute hypoxia (2017)
Journal Article
Martín-Aragón Baudel, M. A. S., Rae, M. T., Darlison, M. G., Poole, A. V., & Fraser, J. A. (2017). Preferential activation of HIF-2α adaptive signalling in neuronal-like cells in response to acute hypoxia. PLOS ONE, 12(10), Article e0185664. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0185664

Stroke causes severe neuronal damage as disrupted cerebral blood flow starves neurons of oxygen and glucose. The hypoxia inducible factors (HIF-1α and HIF-2α) orchestrate oxygen homeostasis and regulate specific aspects of hypoxic adaptation. Here we...

Chloride co-transporters as possible therapeutic targets for stroke (2016)
Journal Article
Martín-Aragón Baudel, M. A. S., Martín-Aragón Baudel, M. A. S., Poole, A. V., & Darlison, M. G. (2017). Chloride co-transporters as possible therapeutic targets for stroke. Journal of Neurochemistry, 140(2), 195-209. https://doi.org/10.1111/jnc.13901

Stroke is one of the major causes of death and disability worldwide. The major type of stroke is an ischaemic one, which is caused by a blockage that interrupts blood flow to the brain. There are currently very few pharmacological strategies to red... Read More about Chloride co-transporters as possible therapeutic targets for stroke.

Design and evaluation of novel theranostic fluorogenic dual probe-prodrug in cancer (2016)
Journal Article
Mathur, S., Mincher, D., Turnbull, A., Stevens, C., & Poole, A. (2016). Design and evaluation of novel theranostic fluorogenic dual probe-prodrug in cancer. European Journal of Cancer, 61, S142. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0959-8049%2816%2961501-0

Background: In spite of major advances in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, there remains a paucity of biomarkers for early detection. Legumain is a potential cancer biomarker and a molecular target for imaging and drug targeting. Legumain is a...

GABAA receptor chloride channels are involved in the neuroprotective role of GABA following oxygen and glucose deprivation in the rat cerebral cortex but not in the hippocampus (2013)
Journal Article
Darlison, M. G., Dos-Anjos, S., Llorente, I. L., Llorente, I. L., Perez-Rodriguez, D., Martínez-Villayandre, B., …Fernández-López, A. (2013). GABAA receptor chloride channels are involved in the neuroprotective role of GABA following oxygen and glucose deprivation in the rat cerebral cortex but not in the hippocampus. Brain Research, 1533, 141-151. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.brainres.2013.08.024

Assays on "ex vivo" sections of rat hippocampus and rat cerebral cortex, subjected to oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) and a three-hour reperfusion-like (RL) recovery, were performed in the presence of either GABA or the GABA(A) receptor binding...

Differential effect of transient global ischaemia on the levels of GABA(A) receptor subunit mRNAs in young and older rats. (2012)
Journal Article
Montori, S., Dos Anjos, S., Poole, A. V., Regueiro-Purrinos, M. M., Llorente, I. L., Darlison, M. G., …Martínez-Villayandre, B. (2012). Differential effect of transient global ischaemia on the levels of GABA(A) receptor subunit mRNAs in young and older rats. Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology, 38, 710-722. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2990.2012.01254.x

Aims: This study has investigated how global brain ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) modifies levels of mRNAs encoding GABA(A) receptor alpha1, beta2 and gamma2 subunits and glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) in an age- and structure-dependent manner....
