The chromatin remodeller Chd7 and the calcium ATPase Serca2 - adding new facets to the role of Notch in Hematopoiesis and T-ALL

Monique Coersmeyer

Project I: Chd7 Deficiency does not affect N1-driven T-ALL Induction and Maintenance nor impair Hematopoiesis Notch1 has been shown to be a key driver in pediatric T-cell acute lymphobastic leukemia (T-ALL). Previous work in the lab identified the chromati ...

MicroRNA 21 is a novel oncogene in Notch1-driven acute lymphoblastic T cell leukemia

Fabian Junker

Notch signaling is a conserved cell-to-cell communication pathway essential in the development and maintenance of various tissues. Upon ligand binding, Notch receptors on the cell surface are proteolytically cleaved, generating the intracellular domain of ...

Rational design of organic and organometallic thermoresponsive or tumor-selective anticancer drugs and their in vitro and in vivo biological evaluation

Catherine Marie Amélie Clavel

Conventional chemotherapy leads to severe side-effects such as nephrotoxicity, nausea and vomiting and fatigue along with drug resistance. Alkylating agents used to treat cancer were even shown to provoke second cancers, often years after the end of chemot ...

Assessing the role of Hes1 and identification of target genes in human and murine T-ALL

Silvia Wirth

The Notch signalling pathway is an ancient cell signalling mechanism that enables short-range communications between cells and controls a broad spectrum of cell fates and developmental processes. In the haematopoietic system Notch signalling has been linke ...

A critical role of autophagy in antileukemia/lymphoma effects of APO866, an inhibitor of NAD biosynthesis

Pierre Vogel, Somi Reddy Majjigapu, Bernard Sordat

APO866, an inhibitor of NAD biosynthesis, exhibits potent antitumor properties in various malignancies. Recently, it has been shown that APO866 induces apoptosis and autophagy in human hematological cancer cells, but the role of autophagy in APO866-induced ...

The appearance of clinically detectable metastases is the end-point of a complex set of biological processes only few cancer cells are capable to complete. Metastatic colonization comprises the most inefficient metastatic steps as it requires a fine-tuned ...

Lanthanide bioprobes and bioconjugates are ideal luminescent stains in view of their low propensity to photobleaching, sharp emission lines and long excited state lifetimes permitting time-resolved detection for enhanced sensitivity. We show here how the i ...

Bacterial pathogens modulate host cell apoptosis to establish a successful infection. Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) secreted by pathogenic bacteria are major virulence factors and have been shown to induce various forms of cell death in infected cells. Here w ...

A bifunctional organometallic ruthenium drug with multiple modes of inducing apoptosis

Paul Joseph Dyson, Ilaria Biondi

The organometallic glutathione S-transferase inhibitor ruthenium(II) (ethacrynic acid-η6-benzylamide)(1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) dichloride, termed ethaRAPTA, has been demonstrated to induce apoptosis in the cisplatin-resistant MCF-7 breast cancer c ...
