Abstract Testicular cancer (TC) is the most common solid tumour in young men. While cisplatin-based chemotherapy highly effective TC patients, chemoresistance still accounts for 10% of disease-related deaths. Pre-clinical models that faithfully reflect patient tumours are needed to assist target discovery and drug development. Tumour pieces from eight patients were subcutaneously implanted NOD scid gamma (NSG) mice. Three patient-derived xenograft (PDX) TC, including one chemoresistant...
Light upconversion by triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA-UC) in nanoparticles has received considerable attention for bioimaging and light activation of prodrugs. However, the mechanism TTA-UC is inherently sensitive quenching molecular oxygen. A potential oxygen protection strategy coating with a layer oxygen-impermeable material. In this work, we explore if (organo)silica can fulfill protecting role. Three synthesis routes are described preparing water-dispersible (organo)silica-coated...
Abstract The interpretation of high throughput sequencing data is limited by our incomplete functional understanding coding and non-coding transcripts. Reliably predicting the function such transcripts can overcome this limitation. Here we report use a consensus independent component analysis guilt-by-association approach to predict over 23,000 groups comprised 55,000 using publicly available transcriptomic profiles. We show that, compared Principal Component Analysis, Independent...
Abstract Background Patient-derived bulk expression profiles of cancers can provide insight into the transcriptional changes that underlie reprogrammed metabolism in cancer. These represent average pattern all heterogeneous tumor and non-tumor cells present biopsies lesions. Hence, subtle footprints metabolic processes be concealed by other biological experimental artifacts. However, consensus independent component analyses (c-ICA) capture statistically both more pronounced processes....
