Generation of endogenously tagged E-cadherin cells using gene editing via non-homologous end joining

STAR Protocols, 2023
Summary: We provide a protocol using non-homologous end joining to integrate an oligonucleotide sequence of a fluorescence protein at the CDH1 locus encoding for the epithelial glycoprotein E-cadherin.

Inactivating mutations and X-ray crystal structure of the tumor suppressor OPCML reveal cancer-associated functions

Nature Communications, 2019
OPCML is a tumour suppressor gene that is epigenetically silenced in ovarian cancer and is somatically mutated in various cancers. Here, the authors solve the X-ray crystal structure of OPCML and model clinically relevant mutations that could contribute ...

Whole Tumor Antigen Vaccines: Where Are We?

Vaccines, 2015
With its vast amount of uncharacterized and characterized T cell epitopes available for activating CD4+ T helper and CD8+ cytotoxic lymphocytes simultaneously, whole tumor antigen represents an attractive alternative source of antigens as compared to ...

Subtypes of Ovarian Cancer and Ovarian Cancer Screening [PDF]

Diagnostics, 2017
Ovarian cancer is the foremost cause of gynecological cancer death in the developed world, as it is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage. In this paper we discuss current issues, the efficacy and problems associated with ovarian cancer screening, and compare the characteristics of ovarian cancer subtypes. There are two types of ovarian cancer: Type I

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Distinct histopathological features are associated with molecular subtypes and outcome in low grade serous ovarian carcinoma

Scientific Reports, 2023
Low grade serous ovarian carcinoma (LGSOC) demonstrates unique clinical and molecular features compared to other ovarian cancer types. The relationship between common histological features of LGSOC and molecular events, such as hormone receptor ...

Diagnosis of ovarian cancer [PDF]

BMJ, 2015
#### The bottom line Ovarian cancer is the seventh most common cancer in women worldwide, with 239 000 new cases diagnosed in 2012.1 As with many other types of cancer, geographical variation in the incidence of and mortality from ovarian cancer is substantial, with a higher incidence in economically developed regions of the world.2 Incidence is ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Control of triple-negative breast cancer using ex vivo self-enriched, costimulated NKG2D CAR T cells

Journal of Hematology & Oncology, 2018
Background Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive disease that currently lacks effective targeted therapy. NKG2D ligands (NKG2DLs) are expressed on various tumor types and immunosuppressive cells within tumor microenvironments, providing ...

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.
