Thrombosis Research, 228, 54-60. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.thromres.2023.05.008

BACKGROUND: Even though antithrombotic therapy has probably little or even negative effects on the well-being of people with cancer during their last year of life, deprescribing antithrombotic therapy at the end of life is rare in practice. It is oft...

Validation of the HULL Score clinical prediction rule for unsuspected pulmonary embolism in ambulatory cancer patients (2023)
Journal Article
Haque, F., Ryde, J., Broughton, L., Huang, C., Sethi, S., Stephens, A., Pillai, A., Mirza, S., Brown, V., Avery, G., Bozas, G., & Maraveyas, A. (2023). Validation of the HULL Score clinical prediction rule for unsuspected pulmonary embolism in ambulatory cancer patients. ERJ Open Research, 9(3), Article 00651-2022. https://doi.org/10.1183/23120541.00651-2022

Background Clinical prediction rules (CPRs) developed to predict adverse outcomes of suspected pulmonary embolism (PE) and facilitate outpatient management have limitations in discriminating outcomes for ambulatory cancer patients with unsuspected PE...

Cancer patients’ experiences of the diagnosis and treatment of incidental pulmonary embolism (a qualitative study) (2022)
Journal Article
Benelhaj, N. E., Hutchinson, A., Maraveyas, A., & Johnson, M. (2022). Cancer patients’ experiences of the diagnosis and treatment of incidental pulmonary embolism (a qualitative study). PLoS ONE, 17(10), Article e0276754. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0276754

Background: The diagnosis of symptomatic cancer-associated thrombosis often causes distress and alarm for patients, especially for those unaware of the risk, or the signs and symptoms to look out for. There are few data about cancer patients’ experie... Read More about Cancer patients’ experiences of the diagnosis and treatment of incidental pulmonary embolism (a qualitative study).

Synthesis and analysis of small molecules to restrain the function of tissue factor within tumour cells (2021)
Journal Article
Adeniran, O. I., Mohammad, M. A., Featherby, S., Maraveyas, A., Boa, A. N., & Ettelaie, C. (2021). Synthesis and analysis of small molecules to restrain the function of tissue factor within tumour cells. Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 26(10), 752-764. https://doi.org/10.52586/4985

Introduction: The restriction of prolyl-protein cis/trans isomerase 1 (Pin1) activity has been shown to prevent the release of tissue factor (TF) leading to the accumulation of the latter protein within the cell. This study tested the ability of nove... Read More about Synthesis and analysis of small molecules to restrain the function of tissue factor within tumour cells.

The prognostic value of respiratory symptoms and performance status in ambulatory cancer patients and unsuspected pulmonary embolism; analysis of an international, prospective, observational cohort study (2021)
Journal Article
Maraveyas, A., Kraaijpoel, N., Bozas, G., Huang, C., Mahé, I., Bertoletti, L., Bartels-Rutten, A., Beyer-Westendorf, J., Constans, J., Iosub, D., Couturaud, F., Muñoz, A.

The prognostic value of respiratory symptoms and performance status in ambulatory cancer patients and unsuspected pulmonary embolism; analysis of an international, prospective, observational cohort study. Journal of thrombosis and haemostasis : JTH, 19(11), 2791-2800. https://doi.org/10.1111/jth.15489

Background: Optimal risk stratification of unsuspected pulmonary embolism (UPE) in ambulatory cancer patients (ACPs) remains unclear. Existing clinical predictive rules (CPRs) are derived from retrospective databases and have limitations. The UPE reg...

De-palmitoylation of tissue factor regulates its activity, phosphorylation and cellular functions (2021)
Journal Article
Ettelaie, C., Featherby, S., Rondon, A. M. R., Greenman, J., Versteeg, H. H., & Maraveyas, A. (2021). De-palmitoylation of tissue factor regulates its activity, phosphorylation and cellular functions. Cancers, 13(15), Article 3837. https://doi.org/10.3390/cancers13153837

In this study, the role of de-palmitoylation of tissue factor (TF) in the decryption of its activity was explored. TF-tGFP constructs were prepared by mutagenesis-substitution at Cys245 to prevent or mimic palmitolyation. Additionally, to reduce TF d...

Factor VIIa regulates the level of cell-surface tissue factor through separate but cooperative mechanisms (2021)
Journal Article
Madkhali, Y., Rondon, A. M., Featherby, S., Maraveyas, A., Greenman, J., & Ettelaie, C. (2021). Factor VIIa regulates the level of cell-surface tissue factor through separate but cooperative mechanisms. Cancers, 13(15), Article 3718. https://doi.org/10.3390/cancers13153718

Procoagulant activity of tissue factor (TF) in response to injury or inflammation is accompanied with cellular signals which determine the fate of cells. However, to prevent excessive signalling, TF is rapidly dissipated through release into microves...
