L.; Shah, Nimish; Schulte, Rolf S.; Graves, Martin J.; Gnanapragasam, Vincent J.; Brindle, Kevin M.; Barrett, Tristan; Gallagher, Ferdia A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Hyperpolarised magnetic resonance imaging (HP 13C-MRI) is an emerging clinical technique to detect [1-13C]lactate production in prostate cancer (PCa) following intravenous injection of hyperpolarised [1-13C]pyruvate. Here ...
    • Hypoxia induced responses are reflected in the stromal proteome of breast cancer 

      Kjølle, Silje; Finne, Kenneth; Birkeland, Even; Ardawatia, Vandana; Winge, Ingeborg; Aziz, Sura Mohammed; Knutsvik, Gøril; Wik, Elisabeth; Paulo, Joao A.; Vethe, Heidrun; Kleftogiannis, Dimitrios; Akslen, Lars Andreas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Cancers are often associated with hypoxia and metabolic reprogramming, resulting in enhanced tumor progression. Here, we aim to study breast cancer hypoxia responses, focusing on secreted proteins from low-grade (luminal-like) ...
    • An idiosyncratic zonated stroma encapsulates desmoplastic liver metastases and originates from injured liver 

      Fernández Moro, Carlos; Geyer, Natalie; Harrizi, Sara; Hamidi, Yousra; Söderqvist, Sara; Kuznyecov, Danyil; Tidholm Qvist, Evelina; Salmonson Schaad, Media; Hermann, Laura; Lindberg, Amanda; Heuchel, Rainer L.; Martín-Bernabé, Alfonso; Dhanjal, Soniya; Navis, Anna C.; Villard, Christina; del Valle, Andrea C.; Bozóky, Lorand; Sparrelid, Ernesto; Dirix, Luc; Strell, Carina; Östman, Arne; Schmierer, Bernhard; Vermeulen, Peter B.; Engstrand, Jennie; Bozóky, Béla; Gerling, Marco (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      A perimetastatic capsule is a strong positive prognostic factor in liver metastases, but its origin remains unclear. Here, we systematically quantify the capsule’s extent and cellular composition in 263 patients with ...
    • An independent poor-prognosis subtype of breast cancer defined by a distinct tumor immune microenvironment
