Notch signalling is a potential resistance mechanism of progenitor cells within patient‐derived prostate cultures following ROS‐inducing treatments (2019)
Journal Article
Packer, J. R., Hirst, A. M., Droop, A. P., Adamson, R., Simms, M. S., Mann, V. M., Frame, F. M., O'Connell, D., & Maitland, N. J. (2019). Notch signalling is a potential resistance mechanism of progenitor cells within patient‐derived prostate cultures following ROS‐inducing treatments. FEBS Letters, https://doi.org/10.1002/1873-3468.13589

Low Temperature Plasma (LTP) generates reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, causing cell death, similarly to radiation. Radiation resistance results in tumour recurrence, however mechanisms of LTP resistance are unknown. LTP was applied to patient‐d...

Epigenetic Control of Gene Expression in the Normal and Malignant Human Prostate: A Rapid Response Which Promotes Therapeutic Resistance (2019)
Journal Article
Frame, F. M., & Maitland, N. J. (2019). Epigenetic Control of Gene Expression in the Normal and Malignant Human Prostate: A Rapid Response Which Promotes Therapeutic Resistance. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 20(10), Article 2437. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms20102437

A successful prostate cancer must be capable of changing its phenotype in response to a variety of microenvironmental influences, such as adaptation to treatment or successful proliferation at a particular metastatic site. New cell phenotypes emerge... Read More about Epigenetic Control of Gene Expression in the Normal and Malignant Human Prostate: A Rapid Response Which Promotes Therapeutic Resistance.

Effects on prostate cancer cells of targeting RNA polymerase III (2019)
Journal Article
Petrie, J. L., Swan, C., Ingram, R. M., Frame, F. M., Collins, A. T., Dumay-Odelot, H., Teichmann, M., Maitland, N. J., & White, R. J. (2019). Effects on prostate cancer cells of targeting RNA polymerase III. Nucleic Acids Research, 47(8), 3937-3956. https://doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkz128

RNA polymerase (pol) III occurs in two forms, containing either the POLR3G subunit or the related paralogue POLR3GL. Whereas POLR3GL is ubiquitous, POLR3G is enriched in undifferentiated cells. Depletion of POLR3G selectively triggers proliferative a... Read More about Effects on prostate cancer cells of targeting RNA polymerase III.
