Increased sensitivity to the prodrug 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine and modulation of 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine sensitivity in MCF-7 cells transfected with thymidine phosphorylase.

Patterson, A. V., Zhang, H., Moghaddam, A., Bicknell, R., Talbot, D. C., Stratford, I. J., ...

Platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor (PD-ECGF) is identical to human thymidine phosphorylase (dThdPase). The human MCF-7 breast cancer cell line was transfected with the dThdPase cDNA and...

Role of lymphangiogenesis in epithelial ovarian cancer

Sundar, S S, Zhang, H, Brown, P, Manek, S, Han, C, Kaur, K, ...

We investigated the significance of lymphatic count, vascular count and angiogenic growth factors using immunohistochemistry in 108 tumour specimens of epithelial ovarian cancer with antibodies to...

HOXB13 is downregulated in colorectal cancer to confer TCF4-mediated transactivation

Jung, C, Kim, R-S, Zhang, H, Lee, S-J, Sheng, H, Loehrer, P J, ...

Mutations in the Wnt signalling cascade are believed to cause aberrant proliferation of colorectal cells through T-cell factor-4 (TCF4) and its downstream growth-modulating factors. HOXB13 is...

Kirsten ras mutations in patients with colorectal cancer: the ‘RASCAL II’ study

Andreyev, H J N, Norman, A R, Cunningham, D, Oates, J, Dix, B R, Iacopetta, B J, ...

Researchers worldwide with information about the Kirsten ras (Ki-ras) tumour genotype and outcome of patients with colorectal cancer were invited to provide that data in a schematized format for...

Influence of topoisomerase II on the formation of oxygen-dependent radiation-induced DNA damage.

Zhang, H., Wheeler, K. T.

Several laboratories have recently demonstrated the feasibility of using radiation-induced DNA strand breaks (SBs) and DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs) to detect and quantify hypoxic cells in tumours...

Restoration of caveolin-1 expression suppresses growth and metastasis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Zhang, H, Su, L, Müller, S, Tighiouart, M, Xu, Z, Zhang, X, ...

Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) plays an important role in modulating cellular signalling, but its role in metastasis is not well defined. A significant reduction in Cav-1 levels was detected in lymph node...
