FORMATION OF OBTURATOR APPARATUS IN LOWER UTERINE SEGMENT IN PATIENTS WITH INVASIVE CERVICAL CANCER AFTER RADICAL TRANSABDOMINAL TRACHELECTOMY

Сибирский онкологический журнал, 2016
A need to strengthen the lower uterine segment and the formation of «obturator» apparatus for carrying a subsequent pregnancy is one of the problems of transabdominal radical trachelectomy performed for patients with stage IA2–IB2 cervical cancer. Isthmo-

Magnetic shape-memory effect in SrRuO$_3$

, 2017
Like most perovskites, SrRuO$_3$ exhibits structural phase transitions associated with rotations of the RuO$_6$ octahedra. The application of moderate magnetic fields in the ferromagnetically ordered state allows one to fully control these structural ...

Targeting p38α in cancer: challenges, opportunities, and emerging strategies

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
p38α normally regulates cellular stress responses and homeostasis and suppresses malignant transformation. In cancer, however, p38α is co‐opted to drive context‐dependent proliferation and dissemination. p38α also supports key functions in cells of the tumor microenvironment, including fibroblasts, myeloid cells, and T lymphocytes.

First principles characterization of reversible martensitic transformations

, 2018
Reversible martensitic transformations (MTs) are the origin of many fascinating phenomena, including the famous shape memory effect. In this work, we present a fully ab initio procedure to characterize MTs in alloys and to assess their reversibility ...

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 ...

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.
