Intrauterine exposure to amniotic fluid (AF) cytokines is thought to predispose to bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). We evaluated the effects of GBS exposure on RNA expression in fetal lung tissue to determine early molecular pathways associated with fetal lung injury that may progress to BPD. Ten ...
Early events leading to intrauterine infection remain poorly defined, but may hold the key to a therapeutic intervention for preterm delivery. To determine early molecular pathways associated with membrane weakening that may progress to preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), we examined th...
Circulating tumour cells in women with advanced oestrogen-receptor (ER)-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer acquire a HER2-positive subpopulation after multiple courses of therapy. In contrast to HER2-amplified primary breast cancer, which is highly sensit...
To identify novel susceptibility loci for psoriasis, we undertook a genome-wide association scan of of 594,224 SNPs in 2,622 individuals with psoriasis and 5,667 controls.
