Functional genetic dropout screens and in vivo validation of candidate therapeutic targets using mouse mammary tumoroids

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: We have previously developed 3D tumoroids derived from genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) of BRCA1/2-deficient breast cancer. Here, we describe how to genetically modify tumoroids, use them for functional genetic dropout screens, and ...

Molecular and cellular pathogenesis of adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas (ACPs) are the most common pituitary tumours in children. Although histologically benign, these are clinically aggressive tumours, difficult to manage and associated with poor quality of life for the patients.

The Role of Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) in the Control of Neuroendocrine Regulation of Growth

open access: yesCells, 2021
In mammals, the neuroendocrine system, which includes the communication between the hypothalamus and the pituitary, plays a major role in controlling body growth and cellular metabolism. GH produced from the pituitary somatotroph is considered the master
