Detailed Molecular and Immune Marker Profiling of Archival Prostate Cancer Samples Reveals an Inverse Association between TMPRSS2:ERG Fusion Status and Immune Cell Infiltration

Prostate cancer is a significant global health issue, and limitations to current patient management pathways often result in overtreatment or undertreatment. New ways to stratify …

Transcriptomic and Functional Screens Reveal MicroRNAs That Modulate Prostate Cancer Metastasis

Identifying new mechanisms that underlie the complex process of metastasis is vital to combat this fatal step in prostate cancer (PCa) progression. Small non-coding RNAs are …

Modeling the Human Bone–Tumor Niche: Reducing and Replacing the Need for Animal Data

Bone is the most common site for cancer metastasis. Understanding the interactions within the complex, heterogeneous bone–tumor microenvironment is essential for the development of …

Multiple myeloma increases nerve growth factor and other pain-related markers through interactions with the bone microenvironment

Interactions between multiple myeloma (MM) and bone marrow (BM) are well documented to support tumour growth, yet the cellular mechanisms underlying pain in MM are poorly …

Tumour-derived alkaline phosphatase regulates tumour growth, epithelial plasticity and disease-free survival in metastatic prostate cancer

Background: Recent evidence suggests that bone-related parameters are the main prognostic factors for overall survival in advanced prostate cancer (PCa), with elevated circulating …

MiR-29b downregulates canonical Wnt signaling by targeting BCL9L and other coactivators of β-catenin in human colorectal cancer cells

The β-catenin/Wnt signaling pathway is activated in many cancers and its constitutive activation has a central role in colorectal cancer pathogenesis. Recent studies have …

Whole-genome sequencing of bladder cancers reveals somatic CDKN1A mutations and clinicopathological associations with mutation burden

Bladder cancers are a leading cause of death from malignancy. Molecular markers might predict disease progression and behaviour more accurately than the available prognostic …

Regulation of MicroRNAs by Natural Compounds: Implications for Cancer Therapy

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are evolutionarily conserved short (19–22 nucleotides) noncoding RNA sequences that bind to target mRNAs, leading to their degradation or inhibition of …
