Translational screening platform to evaluate chemotherapy in combination with focal therapy for retinoblastoma

Paul Joseph Dyson, Valentin Simeonov, Fabien Kuttler, Irina Sinenko, Patrik Aouad

Retinoblastoma is the most common pediatric eye cancer. It is currently treated with a limited number of drugs, adapted from other pediatric cancer treatments. Drug toxicity and relapse of the disease warrant new therapeutic strategies for these young pati ...

Investigating the composition and recruitment of the mycobacterial ImuA'-ImuB-DnaE2 mutasome

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Zela Alexandria-Mae Martin

A DNA damage-inducible mutagenic gene cassette has been implicated in the emergence of drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis during anti-tuberculosis (TB) chemotherapy. However, the molecular composition and operation of the encoded 'mycobacterial ...

Engaging 1-Alkynyl Triazenes in Transition Metal-Catalyzed and Fluorinative Transformations

Jin Fay Tan

Triazenes have garnered great attention for their anti-cancer properties and versatility in organic chemistry. Recently, a novel synthesis of 1-alkynyl triazenes was reported. This thesis describes the compatibility, reactivity and applications of 1-alkyny ...

TGFBI modulates tumour hypoxia and promotes breast cancer metastasis

Albert Santamaria Martinez

Breast cancer metastasis is a complex process that depends not only on intrinsic characteristics of metastatic stem cells, but also on the particular microenvironment that supports their growth and modulates the plasticity of the system. In search for micr ...

Heterobimetallic Ru(mu-dppm)Fe and homobimetallic Ru(mu-dppm)Ru complexes as potential anti-cancer agents

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Two heterobimetallic mu-dppm bridged Fe,Ru complexes, [(eta(6)-Arene)RuCl2(mu-dppm)Fe(CO)I(eta(5)-C5H5)] (Ar - C6H6 (1) and p-cymene (2), dppm-1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) were obtained in a facile reaction between [Fe(eta(5)-C5H5)I(CO)(kappa(1)-dppm ...

Adverse effects of immune-checkpoint inhibitors: epidemiology, management and surveillance

Olivier Michielin, Filipe Amândio Brandão Sanches Vong Martins

Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), including anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4), anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and anti-programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) antibodies, are arguably the most important development in cancer therapy o ...

The antimicrobial peptide defensin cooperates with tumour necrosis factor to drive tumour cell death in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre, Anna Dostalova

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small cationic molecules best known as mediators of the innate defence against microbial infection. While in vitro and ex vivo evidence suggest AMPs' capacity to kill cancer cells, in vivo demonstration of an anti-tumour r ...

Drug Repurposing Approach Identifies a Synergistic Drug Combination of an Antifungal Agent and an Experimental Organometallic Drug for Melanoma Treatment

Paul Joseph Dyson, Tina Riedel, Olivier Pierre Zava

By screening a drug library comprising FDA approved compounds, we discovered a potent interaction between the antifungal agent haloprogin and the experimental organometallic drug RAPTA-T, to synergistically induce cancer cell killing. The combination of th ...

The mechanism of tumour cell death by metal-based anticancer drugs is not only a matter of DNA interactions

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gianni Sava

Platinum drugs are extensively used in the clinic to treat cancer, often leading to a palliative response rather than a cure. While DNA is considered to be the primary target of platinum drugs, there is no clear relationship between cellular platinum accum ...

The Differential Distribution of RAPTA-T in Non-Invasive and Invasive Breast Cancer Cells Correlates with Its Anti-Invasive and Anti-Metastatic Effects

Paul Joseph Dyson, Anders Meibom, Graham Knott, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Catherine Maclachlan, Gianni Sava

Nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS) combined with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) can be a powerful approach to visualize the exact distribution of drugs at the sub-cellular level. In this work, we exploit this approach to identify ...
