Procoagulant tumor microvesicles attach to endothelial cells on biochips under microfluidic flow (2019)
Journal Article
Algarni, A., Greenman, J., & Madden, L. A. (2019). Procoagulant tumor microvesicles attach to endothelial cells on biochips under microfluidic flow. Biomicrofluidics, 13(6), Article 064124. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5123462

Tumor patients are at a high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), and the mechanism by which this occurs may involve tumor-derived microvesicles (MVs). Previously, it has been shown that tumor MVs become attached to endothelial cells in static condi...

Journal Article
Riley, A., Green, V., Cheah, R., McKenzie, G., Karsai, L., England, J., & Greenman, J. (2019). A novel microfluidic device capable of maintaining functional thyroid carcinoma specimens ex vivo provides a new drug screening platform. BMC Cancer, 19(1), Article 259. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12885-019-5465-z

Background
Though the management of malignancies has improved vastly in recent years, many treatment options lack the desired efficacy and fail to adequately augment patient morbidity and mortality. It is increasingly clear that patient response to...

Evaluation of new PET tracers for receptor tumour imaging (2018)
Thesis
Miranda, C. (2018). Evaluation of new PET tracers for receptor tumour imaging. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4193339

PET imaging can be used to non-invasively characterise biological processes at the molecular and cellular levels. The oestrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) are important biomarkers in the diagnosis, prognosis and follow-up of the the...
