Identification of soluble tissue‑derived biomarkers from human thyroid tissue explants maintained on a microfluidic device (2021)
Journal Article
Riley, A., Jones, H., England, J., Kuvshinov, D., Green, V., & Greenman, J. (2021). Identification of soluble tissue‑derived biomarkers from human thyroid tissue explants maintained on a microfluidic device. Oncology Letters, 22(5), Article 780. https://doi.org/10.3892/ol.2021.13041

Although a large cohort of potential biomarkers for thyroid cancer aggressiveness have been tested in various formats in recent years, to the best of our knowledge, thyro‑ globulin and calcitonin remain the only two established biomarkers associated...

A patient tumour-on-a-chip system for personalised investigation of radiotherapy based treatment regimens (2019)
Journal Article
Kennedy, R., Kuvshinov, D., Sdrolia, A., Kuvshinova, E., Hilton, K., Crank, S., Beavis, A. W., Green, V., & Greenman, J. (2019). A patient tumour-on-a-chip system for personalised investigation of radiotherapy based treatment regimens. Scientific reports, 9(1), Article 6327. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-42745-2

Development of personalised cancer models to predict response to radiation would benefit patient care; particularly in malignancies where treatment resistance is prevalent. Herein, a robust, easy to use, tumour-on-a-chip platform which maintains prec...

Maintenance of head and neck tumor on-chip: gateway to personalized treatment? (2017)
Journal Article
Bower, R., Green, V. L., Kuvshinova, E., Kuvshinov, D., Karsai, L., Crank, S. T., Stafford, N. D., & Greenman, J. (2017). Maintenance of head and neck tumor on-chip: gateway to personalized treatment?. Future Science OA, 3(2), FSO174. https://doi.org/10.4155/fsoa-2016-0089

Aim: Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) are solid tumors with low overall survival (40–60%). In a move toward personalized medicine, maintenance of tumor biopsies in microfluidic tissue culture devices is being developed. Methodology/ res...

Microfluidic culture of head and neck tumour maintains viability, as shown by single cell analysis, providing potential for novel applications and personalised medicine
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bower, R., Green, V., Kuvshinov, D., Crank, S., Stafford, N., & Greenman, J. (2016, October). Microfluidic culture of head and neck tumour maintains viability, as shown by single cell analysis, providing potential for novel applications and personalised medicine. Presented at 20th International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences, MicroTAS 2016, Dublin, Ireland

The current paper details a succinct characterisation of an in-house designed microfluidic culture device. The maintenance of tissue viability was determined by studying single cells, following dissociation, of head and neck tumour pre and post cultu...
