WT1 activates transcription of the splice factor kinase SRPK1 gene in PC3 and K562 cancer cells in the absence of corepressor BASP1 (2020)
Journal Article
Belali, T., Wodi, C., Clark, B., Cheung, M. K., Craig, T. J., Wheway, G., …Ladomery, M. (2020). WT1 activates transcription of the splice factor kinase SRPK1 gene in PC3 and K562 cancer cells in the absence of corepressor BASP1. BBA - Gene Regulatory Mechanisms, 1863(12), Article 194642. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbagrm.2020.194642

Dysregulated alternative splicing plays a prominent role in all hallmarks of cancer. The splice factor kinase SRPK1 drives the activity of oncogenic splice factors such as SRSF1. SRSF1 in turn promotes the expression of splice isoforms that favour tu...

Targeting the ERG oncogene with splice-switching oligonucleotides as a novel therapeutic strategy in prostate cancer (2020)
Journal Article
Li, L., Hobson, L., Perry, L., Clark, B., Heavey, S., Haider, A., …Ladomery, M. (2020). Targeting the ERG oncogene with splice-switching oligonucleotides as a novel therapeutic strategy in prostate cancer. British Journal of Cancer, 123, 1024-1032. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41416-020-0951-2

Background: The ERG oncogene, a member of the ETS family of transcription factor encoding genes, is a genetic driver of prostate cancer. It is activated through a fusion with the androgen-responsive TMPRSS2 promoter in 50% of cases. There is therefor...

APC and AXIN2 are promising biomarker candidates for the early detection of adenomas and hyperplastic polyps (2020)
Journal Article
Almond, S., Anaraki, F., Young, C., Ashrafian Bonab, M., Asadzadeh-Aghdaei, H., Rezvani, H., …Ladomery, M. (2020). APC and AXIN2 are promising biomarker candidates for the early detection of adenomas and hyperplastic polyps. Cancer Informatics, 19, 1-8. https://doi.org/10.1177/1176935120972383

Aberrant activation of the WNT/CTNNB1 pathway is notorious in colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, we demonstrate that the expression of specific and crucial WNT signaling pathway genes is linked to disease progression in colonic adenomatous (AP) and hyper...
