Characterizing GPCR Activation Using Automated Live Cell Imaging
Here we describe a live cell imaging based approach to detect GPCR activation using the Lionheart™ FX Automated Live Cell Imager and Gen5™ Microplate Reader and Imager Software.

MicroRNAs as Bile-Based Biomarkers in Pancreatic Cancer and Biliary Tract Cancers
In this study, the role of miRNAs has been assessed in a large cohort of pancreatic cancer.

Is Oxford Nanopore Technology Ready for Clinical Diagnostics?
Our objective is to validate diagnostic services using Oxford Nanopore’s Minion in the first instance and to evaluate the cost and performance compared to existing sequencing technology in areas such as tumour DNA sequencing (and circulating tumour DNA), virology, microbiology, genetics and HLA-typing.

Inhibiting CK2α from Outside the Active Site
Here we report the creation and characterization of a unique inhibitor of CK2a that targets a novel cryptic pocket and was developed using fragment-based methods.

The Impact of MRI on Genitourinary and Gastrointestinal Toxicity after Radiation Therapy
MRI has several advantages relative to other imaging modalities in evaluating, diagnosing, and planning treatment for prostate cancer. However, it is rarely ordered for localized disease. While the diagnostic abilities have been studied, little has been done to associate clinical outcomes with prostate cancer patients who received MRI.

Change in pattern of secondary malignancies following Kaposi's sarcoma in the era of anti-retroviral therapy
This study hypothesis is that the secondary cancers that develop in patients with KS have changed.

Pharmacological Ascorbic Acid and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Target Tumor Cell Metabolism via an Oxidative Stress Mechanism
This data indicates that AA exhibits anti-cancer effects in vitro through an OxS mechanism and that HBOT can enhance this therapeutic effect.

An Antitumor Antibody Response to Attenuate Metastatic Melanoma in a Murine Model
These preliminary results show antitumor activity of adoptive cell transfer of MHC class mismatched CD4(+) T-cells. The finding of reduced numbers of pulmonary metastases correlates with increased serum anti-OVA IgG and increased germinal center development in the spleen.

Activation of PTEN lipid phosphatase function in lung cancer
We have discovered novel small molecule compounds that directly induce PTEN function and antagonize PI3K/AKT pathway activity in lung cancer cells.
