Investigation into the role of the epigenetic target CBX2 in Glioblastoma (2024)
Thesis
Beattie, H. Investigation into the role of the epigenetic target CBX2 in Glioblastoma. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4866108

Glioblastoma (GBM) has been identified as an extremely difficult tumour to treat owing to issues of heterogeneity, as well as the aggressive nature of the tumours’ growth. Despite current treatments using a combination of methods, treatment resistanc... Read More about Investigation into the role of the epigenetic target CBX2 in Glioblastoma.

Determination of epithelial growth factor receptor mutations in circulatory tumour cells from non-small cell lung cancer patients isolated using a novel microfluidic device (2022)
Thesis
Ogidi, N. O. (2022). Determination of epithelial growth factor receptor mutations in circulatory tumour cells from non-small cell lung cancer patients isolated using a novel microfluidic device. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4270004

Patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) sensitizing mutations in non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receive benefit from Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors. Accurate selection of patients before treatment is highly dependent on precise molecula...

An investigation into the regulation of cellular homeostasis through modulation of cell-surface tissue factor (2020)
Thesis
Madkhali, Y. A. An investigation into the regulation of cellular homeostasis through modulation of cell-surface tissue factor. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4836545

In recent years it has become evident that cell-derived microvesicles (MV) influence the recipient cells through inducing signalling mechanisms which lead to cell proliferation or apoptosis. In addition, the excessive release of procoagulant MV durin... Read More about An investigation into the regulation of cellular homeostasis through modulation of cell-surface tissue factor.

Development of a Microfluidic Culture Paradigm for Ex Vivo Maintenance of Human Glioblastoma Tissue: A New Glioblastoma Model? (2019)
Journal Article
Olubajo, F., Achawal, S., & Greenman, J. (2020). Development of a Microfluidic Culture Paradigm for Ex Vivo Maintenance of Human Glioblastoma Tissue: A New Glioblastoma Model?. Translational Oncology, 13(1), 1-10. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tranon.2019.09.002

© 2019 The Authors BACKGROUND: One way to overcome the genetic and molecular variations within glioblastoma is to treat each tumour on an individual basis. To facilitate this, we have developed a microfluidic culture paradigm that maintains human gli...

Synthesis and Validation of Novel Chelates for Gallium-68 PET Imaging (2019)
Thesis
Price, T. Synthesis and Validation of Novel Chelates for Gallium-68 PET Imaging. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4743579

Background:
The use of gallium-68 (68Ga) in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is currently of great interest. This radionuclide can be produced from a small generator allowing easy access to this imaging tool. Recently, [68Ga][Ga(DOTATATE)]...

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...
