Identification of predictive biomarkers of resistance to radiotherapy in rectal cancer (2013)
Thesis
Mehmood, S. (2013). Identification of predictive biomarkers of resistance to radiotherapy in rectal cancer. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4216079

Introduction and Aims:
Neoadjuvant radiotherapy (RT) provides local control of disease in rectal cancer, however, the ability to predict response to RT is limited. The aim of this study was to establish a novel radioresistant (RR) rectal cancer cell... Read More about Identification of predictive biomarkers of resistance to radiotherapy in rectal cancer.

Proteomic analysis of B-cell receptor signaling in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia reveals a possible role for kininogen (2013)
Journal Article
Kashuba, E., Eagle, G. L., Bailey, J., Evans, P., Welham, K. J., Allsup, D., & Cawkwell, L. (2013). Proteomic analysis of B-cell receptor signaling in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia reveals a possible role for kininogen. Journal of Proteomics, 91, 478-485. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jprot.2013.08.002

CLL is an incurable disease with variable prognosis. The hyper reactivity of the B-cell receptor (BCR) to unknown antigen ligation plays a pivotal role in CLL-cell survival. We aimed to investigate the BCR signalling pathway using proteomics to ident...

The kinin–kallikrein system: physiological roles, pathophysiology and its relationship to cancer biomarkers (2013)
Journal Article
Kashuba, E., Bailey, J., Allsup, D., & Cawkwell, L. (2013). The kinin–kallikrein system: physiological roles, pathophysiology and its relationship to cancer biomarkers. Biomarkers, 18(4), 279-296. https://doi.org/10.3109/1354750x.2013.787544

The kinin–kallikrein system (KKS) is an endogenous multiprotein cascade, the activation of which leads to triggering of the intrinsic coagulation pathway and enzymatic hydrolysis of kininogens with the consequent release of bradykinin-related peptide...

Proteomic (antibody microarray) exploration of the molecular mechanism of action of the specific COX-2 inhibitor DuP 697 (2013)
Journal Article
Agarwal, V., Hodgkinson, V. C., Eagle, G. L., Scaife, L., Lind, M. J., & Cawkwell, L. (2013). Proteomic (antibody microarray) exploration of the molecular mechanism of action of the specific COX-2 inhibitor DuP 697. International Journal of Oncology, 42(3), 1088-1092. https://doi.org/10.3892/ijo.2013.1784

We have previously shown that specific COX-2 inhibitors, including DuP 697, have anti-proliferative effects on mesothelioma cells and potentiate the cytotoxicity of pemetrexed. Here, we used a novel proteomic approach to explore the mechanism of acti...
