Journal Article
Featherby, S., & Ettelaie, C. (2024). Endothelial-derived microvesicles promote pro-migratory cross-talk with smooth muscle cells by a mechanism requiring tissue factor and PAR2 activation. Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 11, Article 1365008. https://doi.org/10.3389/fcvm.2024.1365008

Introduction: Microvesicles (MV) released by endothelial cells (EC) following injury or inflammation contain tissue factor (TF) and mediate communication with the underlying smooth muscle cells (SMC). Ser253-phosphorylated TF co-localizes with filami...

Can tumour antigens act as biomarkers for the early detection of non-small cell lung cancer? (2024)
Journal Article
Mohamed, E., Fletcher, D., Hart, S., & Guinn, B.-A. (2024). Can tumour antigens act as biomarkers for the early detection of non-small cell lung cancer?. Onco, 4(2), 87-100. https://doi.org/10.3390/onco4020008

Lung cancer (LC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths. Pulmonary nodules are one of the risk factors and their discovery rate has been increasing due to enhanced performance of chest CT scans but more than 90% are non-malignant causi...
