MicroRNA-330-5p as a putative modulator of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy sensitivity in oesophageal adenocarcinoma (2015)
Journal Article
Bibby, B. A. S., Reynolds, J. V., & Maher, S. G. (2015). MicroRNA-330-5p as a putative modulator of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy sensitivity in oesophageal adenocarcinoma. PLoS ONE, 10(7), Article ARTN e0134180. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0134180

Oesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC) is the sixth most common cause of cancer deaths worldwide, and the 5-year survival rate for patients diagnosed with the disease is approximately 17%. The standard of care for locally advanced disease is neoadjuvant ch...

Altered mitochondrial function and energy metabolism is associated with a radioresistant phenotype in oesophageal adenocarcinoma (2014)
Journal Article
Lynam-Lennon, N., Maher, S. G., Maguire, A., Phelan, J., Muldoon, C., Reynolds, J. V., & O'Sullivan, J. (2014). Altered mitochondrial function and energy metabolism is associated with a radioresistant phenotype in oesophageal adenocarcinoma. PLoS ONE, 9(6), e100738. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0100738

Neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (CRT) is increasingly the standard of care for locally advanced oesophageal cancer. A complete pathological response to CRT is associated with a favourable outcome. Radiation therapy is important for local tumour co...

Gene expression analysis of diagnostic biopsies predicts pathological response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy of esophageal cancer (2009)
Journal Article
Maher, S. G., Gillham, C. M., Duggan, S. P., Smyth, P. C., Miller, N., Muldoon, C., …Reynolds, J. V. (2009). Gene expression analysis of diagnostic biopsies predicts pathological response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy of esophageal cancer. Annals of Surgery, 250(5), 729-737. https://doi.org/10.1097/SLA.0b013e3181bce7e1

OBJECTIVE:This study explored gene expression differences in predicting response to chemoradiotherapy in esophageal cancer. PURPOSE:A major pathological response to neoadjuvant chemoradiation is observed in about 40% of esophageal cancer patients and...
