An investigation of the regulatory mechanisms of cellular homeostasis and haemostasis initiated by tissue factor (2020)
Thesis
Mohammad, M. A. (2020). An investigation of the regulatory mechanisms of cellular homeostasis and haemostasis initiated by tissue factor. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222998

The signalling arising from tissue factor (TF) has been associated with cellular homeostasis as well as haemostasis and, is particularly pertinent in carcinogenesis and cancer progression. The formation of the TF-FVIIa complex is known to activate pr... Read More about An investigation of the regulatory mechanisms of cellular homeostasis and haemostasis initiated by tissue factor.

Evaluation of small molecule inhibitors of Pin1 for their effects on tissue factor within tumour cells (2019)
Thesis
Adeniran, O. I. (2019). Evaluation of small molecule inhibitors of Pin1 for their effects on tissue factor within tumour cells. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222358

Most standard anticancer drugs are non-selective in their cytotoxicity towards cancerous versus normal cells. Therefore, there is a need for the development of selective and targeted anticancer agents. Previous studies have reported upregulation of t...

Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222310

Background: The clinical course of incidental pulmonary embolism in cancer population represents an area of controversy. It presents a growing challenge for clinicians because of a lack of prospective data. Aim: This research aims to investigate t...

Elucidation of the signalling mechanisms involved in TF-mediated apoptosis in endothelial cells (2018)
Thesis
Ethaeb, A. M. (2018). Elucidation of the signalling mechanisms involved in TF-mediated apoptosis in endothelial cells. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4220989

Tissue factor (TF) is the main initiator of blood coagulation. In addition to its procoagulant property, TF has the ability to regulate various functions within cells including proliferation, angiogenesis and apoptosis. These outcomes appear to depen...

Identification and functional characterization of putative mitochondrial iron transporters from the human pathogen Trypanosoma brucei (2017)
Thesis
Zheng, F. (2017). Identification and functional characterization of putative mitochondrial iron transporters from the human pathogen Trypanosoma brucei. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4221817

Trypanosoma brucei is a medically important protozoan parasite causing African sleeping sickness in humans. Treatment of this disease is possible, but is hindered by the limited availability of effective drugs as well as the rapid emergence of drug r...

An investigation into the mechanisms of tissue factor-mediated apoptosis in endothelial cells (2014)
Thesis
ElKeeb, A. M. (2014). An investigation into the mechanisms of tissue factor-mediated apoptosis in endothelial cells. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4217145

Cells are known to express and release tissue factor (TF) following activation. In addition, endothelial cells are capable of acquiring TF carried by circulating microvesicles. Accumulation of TF in the endothelium contributes to chronic pathological... Read More about An investigation into the mechanisms of tissue factor-mediated apoptosis in endothelial cells.

Examination of the up-regulation and transfer of tissue factor to endothelial cells by tumour-derived microparticles (2013)
Thesis
Mah, P. M. (2013). Examination of the up-regulation and transfer of tissue factor to endothelial cells by tumour-derived microparticles. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215976

Overexpression of tissue factor and its release as microparticles is a common feature of aggressive cancer. Furthermore, increased levels of tissue factor have been detected in the tumour associated microvascular endothelial cells. The accumulation o...
