Professor Michael Clarke, Director of the Royal United Services Institute and a graduate of the Department of International Politics, was honoured as Fellow of Aberystwyth University on Tuesday 10 July. To evaluate the feasibility of positron emission tomography (PET) with 2-[fluorine-18]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) in patients with germ cell tumor (GCT) to monitor treatment and differentiate residual masses after chemotherapy.Twenty-six FDG PET studies were performed in 21 patients with GCT, FDG uptake of tumors was interpreted visually, and the lean standardized uptake value (SUVlean) was determined. Despite rapid advances over recent years, many of the molecular and cellular processes that underlie the progressive loss of healthy physiology are poorly understood2. Resistance to apoptosis plays an important role in tumors that are refractory to chemotherapy. Biography. In contrast to wild-type MEL cells, both clones failed to display phenotypic markers of differentiation and continued to proliferate for up to 10 days of culture. In addition to his clinical duties in the division of Oncology, Dr. Clarke maintains a laboratory focused on two areas of research: i) the control of self-renewal of normal stem cells and their malignant counterparts; and ii) the identification and characterization of cancer stem cells.

This has been recently shown in an in vivo model, where overexpression of Bcl-XL, is a crucial step in the progression from hyperplasia to neoplasia and is accompanied by a significant decrease in tumor apoptosis [56]. These data demonstrate that the transcomplementation of replication-deficient adenovirus with exogenous E1 DNA leads to limited replication, and this controlled replication enhances gene transfer efficiency of adenovirus in vivo. He was on the senior staff of the S Adjunct Associate Professor Jon Womersley. View details for Web of Science ID A1991GV58400008. However, the consequences of the underlying gene-dosage imbalance on adult tissues remain poorly understood. Oncogenesis is a process resulting from genetic events which cause loss of growth control or inhibition of appropriate cell death. Mann, D. L., Clark, J., Clarke, M., Reitz, M., Popovic, M., Franchini, G., Trainor, C. D., STRONG, D. M., Blattner, W. A., Gallo, R. C.

These cancer stem cells share many characteristics with normal stem cells, including self-renewal and differentiation. This suggests that expression of DR antigens also can be modulated post-transcriptionally. There was no detectable self-renewal of adult HSCs, indicating a cell autonomous defect in Bmi-1-/- mice. Southern blots of DNA from HTLV-infected cells digested with the methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme HpaII showed that the proviral DNA was methylated in all of the uncultured peripheral blood cells tested. Dalerba, P., Dylla, S. J., Park, I., Liu, R., Wang, X., Cho, R. W., Hoey, T., Gurney, A., Huang, E. H., Simeone, D. M., Shelton, A. Furthermore, in several other nonhematopoietic tissues, cells could be separated into distinct subpopulations with differential Bmi-1 expression. Intriguingly, overexpression of p53 could reverse the inherent IR resistance of Shep-1 cells. Profiles. Anaesthesia 2001, 56(5), 486-487. Although initial adhesion of hematopoietic cells was improved by the presence of both ECMs, the overall progenitor and nonadherent cell productivity was not improved nor did the stroma grow to confluency faster.

[1] Clarke is a former Deputy Vice-Principal and Director of Research Development at King's College London, where he remains a Visiting Professor of Defence Studies. Thus, we reveal USP16 as a novel target in an AD model that can both ameliorate the NPC defect and rescue memory and learning through its regulation of both Cdkn2a and BMP signaling.'. This demands a complex crosstalk between extrinsic signals from the microenvironment and the cell-intrinsic regulators of self-renewal. At the molecular level, Usp16 affects Rspo-mediated phosphorylation of LRP6.

Michael Clarke is a UK academic and "terror expert". Isobe, T., Hisamori, S., Hogan, D. J., Zabala, M., Hendrickson, D. G., Dalerba, P., Cai, S., Scheeren, F., Kuo, A. H., Sikandar, S. S., Lam, J. S., Qian, D., Dirbas, F. M., Somlo, G., Lao, K., Brown, P. O., Clarke, M. F., Shimono, Y. Zhao, C., Cai, S., Shin, K., Lim, A., Kalisky, T., Lu, W., Clarke, M. F., Beachy, P. A. Bcl-xs is a dominant negative repressor of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL, both of which inhibit apoptosis. Our results indicate that Bmi-1 is essential for the generation of self-renewing adult HSCs. We identify two distinct super-enhancers (SEs) associated with CD47 in certain cancer cell types. Russian forces are. This cell line contains a wild-type p53 gene and is an ideal model for studying the mechanism of IR resistance in this disease. We have previously shown that two human T-cell lines (HSB and 8402) derived from patients with childhood T-cell ALL (T-ALL) do not synthesize detectable mRNA for HLA-DR alpha. When organoids were depleted of cKit(+) cells using a toxin-conjugated antibody, organoid formation decreased.cKit marks small intestinal Paneth cells and a subset of colonic goblet cells that are regulated by Notch signaling and support Lgr5(+) stem cells. In bone marrow, RGS18 level is highest in long-term and short-term hematopoietic stem cells, and is decreased as they differentiate into more committed multiple progenitors. However, KITLG-knockdown DLD1 cells formed smaller xenograft tumors than control cells. LDV infects specifically mouse macrophages and alters immune system and tumor phenotype.

Therefore, infection with this virus preferentially kills estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells, or cells growing under hypoxic conditions. Thus, these mice allow for the isolation of viable Bmi-1-expressing cells and have the potential to become a useful tool for understanding the role of Bmi-1 in normal and cancer stem cells in multiple tissue types. [1] During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, he served as Sky News ' security and defence analyst. This is the first example of transformation of NIH-3T3 cells by a human onc gene other than c-ras or Blym, as well as the first demonstration of transformation by a human cDNA clone. Recently, there have been exciting developments in identifying high-risk patient cohorts, refinements in the understanding of systemic vs localized drug delivery to metastatic niches, liquid biomarker development, and dramatic advances in tumor immune therapy, all of which promise new and innovative approaches to tackling the problem ofdetecting and treating the metastatic spread of CRC to the liver. Three well-known tumor suppressors, p53, p16INK4a, and p19ARF, have been connected to the limiting of stem cell self-renewal and proliferation. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly characterized. These results suggest that LEFTY1 is an endogenous dual-SMAD inhibitor and that suppressing its function may represent a therapeutic vulnerability in breast cancer. The IGS was also associated with the prognosis in medulloblastoma (P=0.004), lung cancer (P=0.03), and prostate cancer (P=0.01). Patients who do poorly despite ABMT have a mediastinal primary site, true cisplatin-refractory disease, disease progression prior to ABMT, and/or markedly elevated betaHCG at ABMT. Replication-deficient viral vectors are currently being used in gene transfer strategies to treat cancer cells. This observation is traditionally explained by postulating variations in tumor microenvironment and coexistence of multiple genetic subclones, created by progressive and divergent accumulation of independent somatic mutations. Further study with ETYA showed that the inhibitor at 2 x 10(-5) M had little effect on uptake of 125I-labeled zymosan but did abolish the conversion of 14C-arachidonic acid to a compound that co-migrated with authentic 12-HETE on silica gel plates. Conclusions Lack of CDX2 expression identified a subgroup of patients with high-risk stage II colon cancer who appeared to benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. Furthermore, in human tissues overexpression of USP16 reduces the expansion of normal fibroblasts and postnatal neural progenitors, whereas downregulation of USP16 partially rescues the proliferation defects of Down's syndrome fibroblasts.

To assess CSC-specific remodeling events, we isolated CSC from MMTV-Wnt1 (mouse mammary tumor virus long-term repeat enhancer driving Wnt1 oncogene) breast tumors, a well studied model in which tissue remodeling affects tumorigenesis. EW replicates in IEC subsets differing in their basal type I IFN transcription and induces IRF3-dependent and IRF3-augmented transcription, but not NF-B-dependent or type I IFN transcripts. Human T-cell leukaemia virus (HTLV), first isolated in the United States from a patient with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, is a unique horizontally transmitted retrovirus which is highly associated with certain adult T-cell malignancies. Access is controlled by the 1936 Montreux Convention that gives Turkey the right to close the straits in times of war. Yoo, S., Chandhasin, C., Del Rosario, J. R., Chen, Y.

Direct visualization of human tumor cells in vivo shows two patterns of high-speed migration inside primary tumors: (1) single cells and (2) multicellular streams (i.e., cells following each other in a single file but without cohesive cell junctions). To gain a better insight into these processes, here we generate a single-cell transcriptomic atlas across the lifespan of Mus musculus that includes data from 23 tissues and organs. Since cancers arise as a result of a series of genetic mutations, a better understanding of the consequences of these mutations on the underlying biology of the neoplastic cells will help the development of more effective therapies. His course "Justice" is the first Harvard course to be made freely available online and on television. Lobo, N. A., Zabala, M., Qian, D., Clarke, M. F. Serially transplantable mammary epithelial cells express the Thy-1 antigen. President Biden has reaffirmed the U.S. commitment to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and collective defense and has stated that a strong European Union is in the U.S. interest. By complementation of the E1a protein in trans, Ad5ERE2 allows restricted replication of a conventional E1a-deleted adenoviral vector. Cytoplasmic sequestration of the mt p53 was dependent upon the C-terminal region (residues 326-355) of the protein.

Here we show that the short half-lives of retroviruses limit the distance that they can effectively travel in solution by Brownian motion, and thus the possibility of successful gene transfer. In human breast cancers, a phenotypically distinct minority population of tumorigenic (TG) cancer cells (sometimes referred to as cancer stem cells) drives tumor growth when transplanted into immunodeficient mice. Here, to reveal mechanisms by which different neoplastic cells generate this dominant 'don't eat me' signal, we analyse the CD47 regulatory genomic landscape.

A panel of NB cell lines (CHP-382, GOTO, SHEP-1, SHSY-5Y, and GI-CA-N) were infected with either a bcl-xS adenovirus (pAdRSV-bcl-xS) or a control virus (pAdRSV-lac-z). The cumulative data provide the foundation for an atlas of transcriptomic cell biology. Furthermore, because these cells drive tumor development, strategies designed to target this population may lead to more effective therapies.

However, to date, genetic modification of the human hematopoietic stem cell has been relatively inefficient. Testicular cancer patients refractory or in relapse after primary chemotherapy have < or =25% 5-year progression-free survival with salvage. He was, from 1990 to 2001, the founding Director of the Centre for Defence Studies (CDS) at King's. He was appointed as Professor of Defence Studies in 1995.

To further characterize the role of the TWF1 pathway in breast cancer, we found that IL-11 is an important target of TWF1 that regulates breast cancer cell invasion and STAT3 phosphorylation. Such cells do not express beta-galactosidase, indicating that hematopoietic stem cells do not express transgene encoded by adenovirus vectors based upon the RSV-AD5 vector system.

Inhibition of TLR2, its co-receptor CD14, or its downstream targets MYD88 and IRAK1 inhibits growth of human breast cancers in vitro and in vivo. Ageing is the single greatest cause of disease and death worldwide, and understanding the associated processes could vastly improve quality of life. A cDNA library was constructed from the HUT102 cell line established from a patient with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma and screened for cDNA clones that contain (i) cellular sequences abundantly expressed in HUT102 cells and not in the virus-negative T-cell line HUT78, and (ii) viral long terminal repeat (LTR) sequences either in the 5' end or in the 3' end. George Malcolm (1917-1997), Pianist, Cembalist, Dirigent und Komponist. Research Expertise and Interests These results suggest that Bcl-2 family members are required for survival of cancer cells derived from solid tissues. Data from individual tumor phenotypic analysis and serial transplants performed in limiting dilution show that residual tumors are enriched for cells with the CoCSC phenotype and have increased tumorigenic cell frequency. Hosen, N., Clarke, M. F., Weissman, I. L. Cancer stem cells--perspectives on current status and future directions: AACR Workshop on cancer stem cells. Methods We used a new bioinformatics approach to search for biomarkers of colon epithelial differentiation across gene-expression arrays and then ranked candidate genes according to the availability of clinical-grade diagnostic assays. Available culture systems all have finite and relatively short lifetimes. The molecular mechanisms that control the self-renewal of HSCs are still largely unknown. Two populations of cells, HSCs and MPP cells, were compared for differential gene expression using microarray analysis. Acad. Analysis of HL-60 cells, a myeloid leukemia line with deletion of the 5q31 region, showed that the CTNNA1 promoter of the retained allele is suppressed by both methylation and histone deacetylation. From 1990 to 2001 he was the founding Director of the Centre for Defence Studies at King's. Professor William Clarke. bcl-x is a member of the bcl-2 family of genes and by alternative splicing gives rise to two distinct mRNAs: bcl-xL and bcl-xS. We investigated the existence of colonic Paneth-like cells that have a distinct transcriptional signature and support Lgr5(+) stem cells.We used multicolor fluorescence-activated cell sorting to isolate different subregions of colon crypts, based on known markers, from dissociated colonic epithelium of mice. In contrast, C5-bGM-CSF binding above background fluorescence could not be detected using this system, suggesting that this derivative could bind to and activate the receptor, but not simultaneously bind fluorescein-conjugated avidin. Herein, we present a discussion around the issues facing treatment of patients with CRCliver metastases, including the relationship of discretegene signatures with prognosis. The prognostic role of a gene signature from tumorigenic breast-cancer cells. View details for Web of Science ID A1992HP64200009. Expression of microRNA-30c inversely correlates with interleukin-11 expression in primary breast tumours and low interleukin-11 correlates with relapse-free survival in breast cancer patients. The data are consistent with formation of a core particle on one or the other of the repeated enhancer sequences. Finally, we show that the different gene-expression programs linked to multilineage differentiation are strongly associated with patient survival. Furthermore, we propose a model in which transformation of stem cells, or early progenitor cells, results in carcinogenesis. However, the bone marrow of such patients is often contaminated with tumor cells. Eipers, P. G., Krauss, J. C., Palsson, B. O., Emerson, S. G., Todd, R. F., Clarke, M. F.

These findings have implications for the development of effective therapeutic agents targeting tumor-initiating cells. Although data have been provided to support this theory in human blood, brain, and breast cancers, the identity of pancreatic cancer stem cells has not been determined. Here we describe c-myb-transformed MEL clones which undergo delayed expression of the exogenous c-myb following 3-5 days of culture in DMSO. Thus, bcl-2 protects cells from p53-dependent radiation-induced apoptotic cell death and attenuates p53-independent radiation-induced cell death. We have developed a new in vitro culture system that permits, for the first time, the propagation of mammary stem and progenitor cells in an undifferentiated state, which should facilitate the elucidation of pathways that regulate normal mammary stem-cell self-renewal and differentiation. Although the existence of mammary stem cells has been suggested by serial transplantation studies in mice, their identification has been hindered by the lack of specific surface markers, and by the absence of suitable in vitro assays for testing stem cell properties: self-renewal and ability to generate differentiated progeny. A better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying metastasis is needed to develop more effective treatments. We review the biological basis and the therapeutic implications of the stem cell model of cancer. Michael Clarke, MD is a Professor of Medicine at Stanford University. Here we performed bulk RNA sequencing of 17 organs and plasma proteomics at 10 ages across the lifespan of Mus musculus, and integrated these findings with data from the accompanying Tabula Muris Senis2-or 'Mouse Ageing Cell Atlas'-which follows on from the original Tabula Muris3. Clinically, successful reconstruction of human bone marrow would permit the controlled production of mature blood cells for transfusion therapy, and immature bone marrow stem cells for bone marrow transplantation. Furthermore, the LTBMCs produced nonadherent colony-forming unit-GM (CFU-GM) for more than 20 weeks. Furthermore, the tumorigenic CD44(+) cells differentially express the BMI1 gene, at both the RNA and protein levels. Josephs, S. F., Ratner, L., Clarke, M. F., Westin, E. H., Reitz, M.
