Abstract:
Tamoxifen has made a significant contribution in decreasing breast cancer related deaths for over 30 years and until recently was the gold standard for treatment of ER positive breast cancer (Fisher et al, 1998). Resistance to tamoxifen is however a considerable issue with cells utilising a number of molecular mechanisms to bypass the growth inhibition caused by blocking ER activity. This move towards an anti-hormone resistant state from an antihormone responsive state is associated with the transition to a much more aggressive phenotype including increased proliferation and also invasiveness.

Abstract:
Friedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) is a rare debilitating, life-shortening, autosomal recessive inherited disease that leads to progressive damage to the nervous system. Onset is usually around the puberty and patients develop a progressive loss of motor coordination, inability to walk, slurred speech, and a cardiac hypertrophy that often leads to premature death. The particular genetic mutation – expansion of an intronic GAA triplet repeat in the FXN gene – leads to reduced expression of the mitochondrial protein frataxin involved in iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis.

De nos jours, la communauté scientifique s'accorde sur la nécessité de diagnostics et de thérapies personnalisés pour les patients atteints de cancer, conçus par des études translationnelles combinant approches expérimentales et statistiques. Les défis actuels incluent la validation de modèles expérimentaux précliniques et leur profilage multi-omiques, ainsi que la conception de méthodes bioinformatiques et mathématiques dédiées pour identifier les combinaisons de médicaments optimales pour chaque patient.Cette thèse a visé à concevoir de telles approches statistiques pour analyser différents

Abstract:
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are rare diseases caused by inherited mutations in genes coding for proteins of the endolysosomal system. The lysosome is an organelle responsible for the degradation of dysfunctional organelles and for the catabolism, and subsequent recycling, of macromolecules within the cell. When this process becomes defective the substrates of lysosomal catabolism accumulate; these can include lipids, proteins, polysaccharides, nucleotides and diverse combinations of all three. The phenotypic spectrum of these diseases in isolation, and even more so as a group, is extrem

Abstract:
Prostate cancer (PC), is initially androgen dependent due to the androgenic nature of the organ. Hence, initial therapy comprises androgen depletion via chemical castration in conjunction with an anti-androgen therapeutic. However, patients relapse and the tumours aggressively re-grow in a castrate resistant (CRPC) manner. In CRPC, androgen receptor (AR) signaling remains functional via numerous mechanisms hence the AR remains a viable therapeutic target. However, treatment with current AR targeting therapeutics also results in relapse indicating the potential of targeting AR signaling indirec

Abstract:
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is an aggressive cancer with a poor prognosis, for which mainstream treatments have not changed for decades. To identify novel therapeutic targets in AML, I have optimized a genome-wide clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) screening platform and use it to identify genetic vulnerabilities in AML cells. This work led to the identification of 492 AML-specific cell-essential genes, including several established therapeutic targets such as that represent new clinically actionable candidates. I have validated selected genes using DOT1L, BCL

Abstract:
Lymphoid neoplasms are a subgroup of haematological malignancies that affect circulating lymphocytes. The clinical and biological heterogeneity of lymphoid neoplasms can lead to difficulty in accurate diagnosis in this group of diseases. The advancement in effective and feasible detection platforms has enabled novel biomarkers to improve diagnosis and prognosis, in addition to assist in patient stratification and personalised treatments for these diseases. Although there have been improvements in high-throughput diagnostic techniques, the conventional immunohistochemistry (IHC) remains the mos

Abstract:
Wilms tumor (WT) is a pediatric kidney tumor that accounts for 6-7% of children’s malignant tumors. WT cells arise from embryonic mesenchymal renal progenitors, not differentiated, remaining in the organ after birth. The classic triphasic WT contains a mixture of undifferentiated blastemal, differentiated epithelial cells, and stromal elements, whereas individual cell types may predominate in some tumors. Moreover, as human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), these cells have the ability to differentiate in many tissue lineages. In particular, stromal-like WT (str-WT) display morphological, phenoty

Abstract:
Colorectal cancer is a disease caused by genetic and epigenetic changes. Inactivation of tumor suppressor genes and activation of oncogenes are key landmarks in tumor progression. However, the list of tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes is far from complete, even in the case of the tumor types that are best characterized, such as colorectal cancer. Colorectal cancer is the second most frequent cause of cancer-related death in the Western world and is a serious health issue for the European Union. Patients having stage III or IV cancer undergo surgery followed by chemotherapy. However, the cli

Dietary flaxseed is a Manitoban crop rich in the n3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid, fibre and antioxidant lignans. Addition of flaxseed to the diet decreased brachial blood pressure in patients with hypertension and peripheral artery disease over one year (n=110). With the addition of flaxseed to standard of care, 21% of patients improved from blood pressure above goal (>140/90 mmHg) to blood pressure within goal (<140/90 mmHg). Dietary flaxseed may have induced these anti-hypertensive effects through the reduction of vascular constriction and inflammation. Healthy older adults, who consumed

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: In 1966, Rett syndrome (RTT, OMIM#312750) was for the first time described as a clinical issue by Dr. Andreas Rett, an Austrian pediatrician. He has observed in 22 patients similar unique symptoms. A few years later Hagberg and colleagues described further the syndrome in 35 girls. Rett syndrome is the cause of mental retardation that affects 1 in 10.000 female births, which makes it the second cause of mental retardation in girls. In 1999 Zoghbi lab found out the genetic basis of Rett disease. Mutation in MeCP2 is in 95% cases the reason of classical Rett. MeCP2 is a nu
