Doxorubicin resistance in breast cancer cells is mediated by extracellular matrix proteins

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2018
Background Cancer cell resistance to therapeutics can result from acquired or de novo-mediated factors. Here, we have utilised advanced breast cancer cell culture models to elucidate de novo doxorubicin resistance mechanisms.

Structural insights into lacto‐N‐biose I recognition by a family 32 carbohydrate‐binding module from Bifidobacterium bifidum

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bifidobacterium bifidum establishes symbiosis with infants by metabolizing lacto‐N‐biose I (LNB) from human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). The extracellular multidomain enzyme LnbB drives this process, releasing LNB via its catalytic glycoside hydrolase family 20 (GH20) lacto‐N‐biosidase domain.

Development of a Zebrafish Sepsis Model for High-Throughput Drug Discovery

open access: yesMolecular Medicine, 2017
Sepsis is a leading cause of death worldwide. Current treatment modalities remain largely supportive. Intervention strategies focused on inhibiting specific mediators of the inflammatory host response have been largely unsuccessful, a consequence of an ...

Communicating Our Science to Our Customers:Drug Discovery in Five Simple Experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The complexities of modern drug discovery–an interdisciplinary process that often takes years and costs billions–can be extremely challenging to explain to a public audience.

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

Inhibition of triple negative breast cancer-associated inflammation and progression by N- acylethanolamine acid amide hydrolase (NAAA)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is associated with high mortality due to the high expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and lack of targeted therapies.

Drug hypersensitivity caused by alteration of the MHC-presented self-peptide repertoire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions are unpredictable, dose independent and potentially life threatening; this makes them a major factor contributing to the cost and uncertainty of drug development. Clinical data suggest that many such reactions involve

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Significant impacts of metal ions from ancient oceans on nucleoside phosphorylation

open access: yesBMC Chemistry
Nucleotides, such as 5’-AMP and ATP, are essential biomolecules in modern organisms. The phosphorylation of nucleosides to generate nucleotides occurs in complex prebiotic environments, where metal ions played a pivotal role, particularly in the metal ...

PLCγ2 regulates TREM2 signalling and integrin-mediated adhesion and migration of human iPSC-derived macrophages

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Human genetic studies have linked rare coding variants in microglial genes, such as TREM2, and more recently PLCG2 to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology.
