Primary mesenchymal stromal cells in co-culture with leukaemic HL-60 cells are sensitised to cytarabine-induced genotoxicity, while leukaemic cells are protected (2021)
Journal Article
Gynn, L. E., Anderson, E., Robinson, G., Wexler, S. A., Upstill-Goddard, G., Cox, C., & May, J. E. (2021). Primary mesenchymal stromal cells in co-culture with leukaemic HL-60 cells are sensitised to cytarabine-induced genotoxicity, while leukaemic cells are protected. Mutagenesis, 36(6), 419-428. https://doi.org/10.1093/mutage/geab033

Tumour microenvironments are hallmarked in many cancer types. In haematological malignancies, bone marrow (BM) mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) protect malignant cells from drug-induced cytotoxicity. However, less is known about malignant impact on su...

Shedding smart light on the effectiveness of chemotherapy: using Raman spectroscopy and machine learning to differentiate the effects of Cytarabine toxicity and crosstalk of leukaemic and bone marrow stromal cells (2021)
Journal Article
Gynn, L., Lamb-Riddell, K., Cox, T., Hansen, M., Conway, M., & May, J. (2021). Shedding smart light on the effectiveness of chemotherapy: using Raman spectroscopy and machine learning to differentiate the effects of Cytarabine toxicity and crosstalk of leukaemic and bone marrow stromal cells. British Journal of Haematology, 193(S1), 46-47

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) protect leukaemic cells from drug-induced toxicity within the bone marrow niche, with increasing evidence of leukaemic impact on supportive stroma. The nucleoside analogue, cytarabine (ara-C), is a front-line agent for...

Leukaemic and bone marrow stromal cells alter cytarabine genotoxicity and cytotoxicity in favour of disease (2019)
Journal Article
May, J., Gynn, L., Anderson, E., & Robinson, G. (2019). Leukaemic and bone marrow stromal cells alter cytarabine genotoxicity and cytotoxicity in favour of disease. Mutagenesis, 34(5/6), e5. https://doi.org/10.1093/mutage/gez025

Resistance to therapy remains one of the greatest challenges in the management of the blood and bone marrow (BM) disorder, acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). This study aimed to investigate how leukaemic and BM stromal cells contribute to altered chemo-s...

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are known to protect leukemic cells from drug-induced toxicity within the bone marrow (BM) niche, however, less is known about leukemic impact on supportive MSC. The nucleoside-analogue, cytarabine (Ara-C), is a front-... Read More about Influence of Bone Marrow Stromal and Leukemic Cells on Cytarabine Chemo-Toxicity in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)..

Development of a 2D leukaemia-stroma model for analyses of chemo-toxicity protection using a novel bacterial bioluminescent biosensor (2017)
Journal Article
Gynn, L., May, J., Anderson, E., & Robinson, G. (2017). Development of a 2D leukaemia-stroma model for analyses of chemo-toxicity protection using a novel bacterial bioluminescent biosensor. Mutagenesis, 32(6), 619. https://doi.org/10.1093/mutage/gex033

This study aimed to develop a 2D leukaemia-stroma model of the bone marrow for analysis of stromal-mediated chemo-protection; known to contribute to chemotherapy resistance. The model must facilitate integration of a bioluminescent biosensor HA1 for...
