Isolation and characterisation of graves’ disease-specific extracellular vesicles from tissue maintained on a bespoke microfluidic device (2021)
Journal Article
Foster, H., Wade, M., England, J., Greenman, J., & Green, V. (2021). Isolation and characterisation of graves’ disease-specific extracellular vesicles from tissue maintained on a bespoke microfluidic device. Organs-on-a-Chip, 3, Article 100011. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ooc.2021.100011

Abstract This report demonstrates the ability of a microfluidic device to maintain human Graves' disease tissue enabling the isolation and characterisation of Graves' disease specific exosomes. Graves' disease (n = 7) and non-Graves’ disease (Hashim...

© 2019 The Author(s). 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 tha... Read More about A novel microfluidic device capable of maintaining functional thyroid carcinoma specimens ex vivo provides a new drug screening platform.

The Role of Chemokines in Thyroid Carcinoma (2017)
Journal Article
Yapa, S., Mulla, O., Green, V., England, J., & Greenman, J. (2017). The Role of Chemokines in Thyroid Carcinoma. Thyroid : official journal of the American Thyroid Association, 27(11), 1347-1359. https://doi.org/10.1089/thy.2016.0660

© Copyright 2017, Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. 2017. The global incidence of thyroid cancer is increasing, and metastatic spread to the lymph nodes is common in papillary thyroid carcinoma. The metastatic course of thyroid carcinoma is an intricate process... Read More about The Role of Chemokines in Thyroid Carcinoma.

Measuring the response of human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma to irradiation in a microfluidic model allowing customized therapy (2017)
Journal Article
Cheah, R., Srivastava, R., Stafford, N. D., Beavis, A. W., Green, V., & Greenman, J. (2017). Measuring the response of human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma to irradiation in a microfluidic model allowing customized therapy. International Journal of Oncology, 51(4), 1227-1238. https://doi.org/10.3892/ijo.2017.4118

Radiotherapy is the standard treatment for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), however, radioresistance remains a major clinical problem despite significant improvements in treatment protocols. Therapeutic outcome could potentially be impr...

Increased frequency and suppressive activity of CD127low/- regulatory T cells in the peripheral circulation of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma are associated with advanced stage and nodal involvement (2013)
Journal Article
Drennan, S., Stafford, N. D., Greenman, J., & Green, V. (2013). Increased frequency and suppressive activity of CD127low/- regulatory T cells in the peripheral circulation of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma are associated with advanced stage and nodal involvement. Immunology, 140(3), 335-343. https://doi.org/10.1111/imm.12144

The presence of regulatory T (Treg) cells is thought to be an important mechanism by which head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) successfully evades the immune system. Using multicolour flow cytometry, the frequency and functional capacity of...
