Aberrant expression of the S1P regulating enzymes, SPHK1 and SGPL1, contributes to a migratory phenotype in OSCC mediated through S1PR2.
(Nature, 2016-05-10)Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a lethal disease with a 5-year mortality rate of around 50%. Molecular targeted therapies are not in routine use and novel therapeutic targets are required. Our previous microarray ... -
Abiraterone for Prostate Cancer Not Previously Treated with Hormone Therapy.
(New England Journal of Medicine, 2017-07)Abiraterone acetate plus prednisolone improves survival in men with relapsed prostate cancer. We assessed the effect of this combination in men starting long-term androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT), using a multigroup, ... -
Abnormal splicing of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha in maturity-onset diabetes of the young.
(Springer, 2002-10)Mutations in the HNF-1 alpha gene result in maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY); an early-onset, dominantly inherited form of diabetes caused by pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction. Splice site mutations represent ... -
AbobotulinumtoxinA in the management of cervical dystonia in the United Kingdom: a budget impact analysis
(Dove Press, 2015-09-09)BACKGROUND: Cervical dystonia (CD) can be effectively managed by a combination of botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT-A) and conventional therapy (skeletal muscle relaxants and rehabilitative therapy), but the costs of different ... -
Absence of Epstein-Barr virus infection in squamous cell carcinoma of upper urinary tract and urinary bladder
(Elsevier, 2006-10)To address whether Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection may be involved in the carcinogenesis of squamous cell carcinoma of the upper urinary tract and urinary bladder (SCC-UB). EBV has been implicated in the genesis of a ... -
Absence of islet autoantibodies and modestly raised glucose values at diabetes diagnosis should lead to testing for MODY: lessons from a 5 year pediatric Swedish national cohort study
(American Diabetes Association, 2020-01)Identifying maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) in pediatric populations close to diabetes diagnosis is difficult. Misdiagnosis and unnecessary insulin treatment are common. We aimed to identify the discriminatory ... -

Action observation for sensorimotor learning in surgery.
(Wiley, 2018-09-27)Acquiring new motor skills to learn complex movements and master the use of a diverse range of instruments is fundamental for developing expertise in surgery. Although aspects of skill development occur through trial and ... -
Activating germline mutations in STAT3 cause early-onset multi-organ autoimmune disease.
(Nature, 2014-08)Monogenic causes of autoimmunity provide key insights into the complex regulation of the immune system. We report a new monogenic cause of autoimmunity resulting from de novo germline activating STAT3 mutations in five ... -
An Activating STAT3 Mutation Causes Neonatal Diabetes through Premature Induction of Pancreatic Differentiation.
(Cell Press, 2017-04-11)Activating germline mutations in STAT3 were recently identified as a cause of neonatal diabetes mellitus associated with beta-cell autoimmunity. We have investigated the effect of an activating mutation, STAT3(K392R), on ... -
