Abstract Radical radiotherapy and surgery achieve similar cure rates in muscle-invasive bladder cancer, but the choice of which treatment would be most beneficial cannot currently predicted for individual patients. The primary aim this study was to assess whether expression any a panel DNA damage signaling proteins tumor samples taken before irradiation could used as predictive marker response, or rather prognostic. Protein MRE11, RAD50, NBS1, ATM, H2AX studied by immunohistochemistry...
The aim of this prospective, phase II trial was to determine the response muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) concurrent chemoradiotherapy weekly gemcitabine with 4 weeks radiotherapy (RT; GemX).
European genome-wide association study identifies SLC14A1 as a new urinary bladder cancer susceptibility gene.
Abstract Bladder cancers are a leading cause of death from malignancy. Molecular markers might predict disease progression and behaviour more accurately than the available prognostic factors. Here we use whole-genome sequencing to identify somatic mutations chromosomal changes in 14 bladder different grades stages. As well as detecting known cancer driver mutations, report identification recurrent protein-inactivating CDKN1A FAT1. The former not mutually exclusive with TP53 or MDM2...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression through binding to messenger RNAs (mRNA) thereby promoting mRNA degradation or altered translation. A single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) located within a miRNA-binding site could thus alter translation and influence cancer risk treatment response. The common SNPs the 3′-untranslated regions 20 DNA repair genes were analysed for putative sites using bioinformatics algorithms, calculating difference Gibbs...
Abstract RAD51 is a key protein in the homologous recombination (HR) pathway of DNA double-strand break repair, and HR represents novel target for cancer therapy. Because imatinib (Gleevec) has been reported to reduce levels, we tested clonogenic survival RT112, H1299, PANC1, PC3 tumor cell lines varying p53 status normal GM05757 fibroblasts after exposure single agent (0–20 μmol/L; 0–72 hours). We also combined with damaging agents that are toxic RAD51-deficient cells, including ionizing...
DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) are a specific type of DNA lesion in which proteins covalently attached to DNA. Unrepaired DPCs lead genomic instability, cancer, neurodegeneration, and accelerated aging. DPC proteolysis was recently identified as specialized pathway for repair. The DNA-dependent protease SPRTN the 26S proteasome emerged two independent proteolytic systems. also repaired by homologous recombination (HR), canonical repair pathway. While studying cellular response formation, we...
Abstract Background Non-toxic approaches to enhance radiotherapy outcomes are beneficial, particularly in ageing populations. Based on preclinical findings showing that high-fibre diets sensitised bladder tumours irradiation by modifying the gut microbiota, along with clinical evidence of prebiotics enhancing anti-cancer immunity, we hypothesised dietary fibre and its microbiota modification can radiosensitise via secretion metabolites and/or immunomodulation. We investigated efficacy...
We studied the outcomes in patients with node positive penile cancer who received radiotherapy to inguinal and pelvic nodes. Although half of cases are cured by lymphadenectomy, little data available on potential further benefits toxicities postoperative radiotherapy.
