Increased inducible heat shock protein 72 expression associated with PBMC isolated from patients with haematological tumours (2012)
Journal Article
Madden, L. A., Hayman, Y. A., Underwood, C., Vince, R. V., Greenman, J., Allsup, D., & Ali, S. (2012). Increased inducible heat shock protein 72 expression associated with PBMC isolated from patients with haematological tumours. Scandinavian journal of clinical & laboratory investigation, 72(5), 380-386. https://doi.org/10.3109/00365513.2012.681683

Background. Heat shock protein 72 (Hsp72) is a highly inducible stress protein and molecular chaperone. Cancers have been shown to be associated with increased Hsp72 expression within the tumour itself and this may lead to resistance to apoptosis. Me...

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia is a risk factor for venous thromboembolism (2010)
Journal Article
Whittle, A. M., Allsup, D. J., & Bailey, J. R. (2011). Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia is a risk factor for venous thromboembolism. Leukemia Research, 35(3), 419-421. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.leukres.2010.11.011

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. The literature is sparse on the incidence in the most common lymphoid malignancy, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL). We calculated the incidence rates for...

Thalidomide enhances cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone-mediated cytotoxicity towards cultured chronic lymphocytic leukaemia cells (2010)
Journal Article
Pointon, J. C., Eagle, G., Bailey, J., Evans, P., Allsup, D., & Greenman, J. (2010). Thalidomide enhances cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone-mediated cytotoxicity towards cultured chronic lymphocytic leukaemia cells. Oncology Reports, 24(5), 1315-1321. https://doi.org/10.3892/or_00000988

Numerous chemotherapeutic regimens exist for the treatment of symptomatic or progressive chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL). However, once the disease becomes refractory to nucleoside-based therapy the prognosis is poor. In this study we investigate...
