Exportin 1 inhibition prevents neuroendocrine transformation through SOX2 down-regulation in lung and prostate cancers

In lung and prostate adenocarcinomas, neuroendocrine (NE) transformation to an aggressive derivative resembling small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is associated with poor prognosis. We previously described dependency of SCLC on the nuclear transporter exportin ...

Weakly supervised joint whole-slide segmentation and classification in prostate cancer

Seyedbehzad Bozorgtabar, Guillaume Jaume

The identification and segmentation of histological regions of interest can provide significant support to pathologists in their diagnostic tasks. However, segmentation methods are constrained by the difficulty in obtaining pixel-level annotations, which a ...

Mutation-Attention (MuAt): deep representation learning of somatic mutations for tumour typing and subtyping

Sebastian Martin Waszak

Background: Cancer genome sequencing enables accurate classification of tumours and tumour subtypes. However, prediction performance is still limited using exome-only sequencing and for tumour types with low somatic mutation burden such as many paediatri ...

Value of T-2 Mapping MRI for Prostate Cancer Detection and Classification

Tom Hilbert

Background Currently, multi-parametric prostate MRI (mpMRI) consists of a qualitative T-2, diffusion weighted, and dynamic contrast enhanced imaging. Quantification of T-2 imaging might further standardize PCa detection and support artificial intelligence ...

Reduced NCOR2 expression accelerates androgen deprivation therapy failure in prostate cancer

Gerard Llimos Aubach

This study addresses the roles of nuclear receptor corepressor 2 (NCOR2) in prostate cancer (PC) progression in response to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Reduced NCOR2 expression significantly associates with shorter disease-free survival in patients ...

The clustering of the SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey quasar sample: testing observational systematics on the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation measurement

Cheng Zhao

Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) are considered to be a very robust standard ruler against various systematics. This premise has been tested against observational systematics, but not to the level required for the next generation of galaxy surveys such a ...

SciFi detector and associated method for real-time determination of profile and output factor for small fields in stereotactic radiotherapy

Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Plamen Hristov Hopchev, Philippe Pittet

Purpose For determining small-field profile and output factor during stereotactic radiotherapy quality assurance (QA) procedures, we propose a novel system based on the scintillating fiber (SciFi) detector with output image acquisition and processing to al ...

Separable Effects for Causal Inference in the Presence of Competing Events

Mats Julius Stensrud

In time-to-event settings, the presence of competing events complicates the definition of causal effects. Here we propose the new separable effects to study the causal effect of a treatment on an event of interest. The separable direct effect is the treatm ...

Impact of the skull contour definition on Leksell Gamma Knife(R)Icon (TM) radiosurgery treatment planning

Constantin Tuleasca

Introduction The Gamma Knife(R)planning software (TMR 10, Elekta Instruments, AB, Sweden) affords two ways of defining the skull volume, the "historical" one using manual measurements (still perform in some centers) and the new one using image-based skull ...

Memristive Biosensors based on Full-size Antibodies and Antibody Fragments

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Ioulia Tzouvadaki

For the first time memristive biosensors developed by the incorporation of scAbs (single-chain antibody fragments) enabling label-free detection of free Prostate Specific Antigen (fPSA) for early-stage detection of prostate cancer (PC) are reported. In add ...

The miR-96 and RAR gamma signaling axis governs androgen signaling and prostate cancer progression

Gerard Llimos Aubach

Expression levels of retinoic acid receptor gamma (NR1B3/RARG, encodes RAR gamma) are commonly reduced in prostate cancer (PCa). Therefore, we sought to establish the cellular and gene regulatory consequences of reduced RAR gamma expression, and determine ...

An extended regulatory landscape drives Tbx18 activity in a variety of prostate-associated cell lineages

Christopher Chase Bolt

The evolutionarily conserved transcription factor, Tbx18, is expressed in a dynamic pattern throughout embryonic and early postnatal life and plays crucial roles in the development of multiple organ systems. Previous studies have indicated that this dynami ...

Characterization of cancer stem cell subpopulations from patient-derived xenografts of advanced prostate cancer

Markus Germann

Androgen-deprivation therapy is the standard treatment for prostate cancer. Despite the initial response, a fraction of cases manifest progression to castration-resistant prostate cancer. PCa recurrence is possibly due to androgen-independent cancer stem c ...
