Journal ArticleDOI
Differentiation of tumour-promoting stromal myofibroblasts by cancer exosomes.
Jason P. Webber,Lisa Kate Spary,Andrew James Sanders,Ruhena Chowdhury,Wen Jiang,Robert Steadman,Jennifer Wymant,Arwyn Tomos Jones,Howard Kynaston,Malcolm David Mason,Zsuzsanna Tabi,Aled Clayton +11 more
TL;DR: Eliminating exosomes from the cancer cell secretome, targeting Rab27a, abolished differentiation and lead to failure in stroma-assisted tumour growth in vivo, and exosomal TGFβ1 is therefore required for the formation of tumour-promoting stroma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simple and versatile 3D printed microfluidics using fused filament fabrication
Alex J. L. Morgan,Lorena Hidalgo San Jose,William David Jamieson,Jennifer Wymant,Bing Song,Philip Stephens,David Anthony Barrow,Oliver Kieran Castell +7 more
TL;DR: 3D printed microfluidic devices capable of operating at pressures in excess of 2000 kPa illustrate that leakage issues have also been resolved and it is demonstrated that previously reported limitations of transparency and fidelity have been overcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disulfiram-induced cytotoxicity and endo-lysosomal sequestration of zinc in breast cancer cells.
Helen L. Wiggins,Jennifer Wymant,Francesca Solfa,Stephen Edward Hiscox,Kathryn Mary Taylor,Andrew D. Westwell,Arwyn Tomos Jones +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the cytotoxic effects of disulfiram in breast cancer cells, and its relationship with both intra and extracellular zinc were investigated, showing that the availability of extacellular zinc significantly influences disulfuram efficacy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel cis-selective and non-epimerisable C3 hydroxy azapodophyllotoxins targeting microtubules in cancer cells
Sahar Kandil,Jennifer Wymant,Benson M. Kariuki,Arwyn Tomos Jones,Christopher McGuigan,Andrew D. Westwell +5 more
TL;DR: Strong evidence is obtained from spectroscopic and X-ray data analyses that the previously reported structure of similar analogues is not accurate, and a novel C3 hydroxy, cis-selective γ-lactone configuration of ring C in the azapodophyllotoxin scaffold is identified through an efficient stereoselective multicomponent reaction (MCR) involving fluorinated and non-fluorinated aldehydes.
Journal ArticleDOI
siRNA Inhibition of Endocytic Pathways to Characterize the Cellular Uptake Mechanisms of Folate-Functionalized Glycol Chitosan Nanogels.
Paula Pereira,Sílvia Santos Pedrosa,Jennifer Wymant,Edward J. Sayers,Alexandra Correia,Manuel Vilanova,Arwyn Tomos Jones,Francisco M. Gama +7 more
TL;DR: Glycol chitosan nanogels may have potential as drug delivery vectors for targeting different intracellular compartments and the involvement of the actin cytoskeleton in nanogel uptake via macropinocytosis is suggested.
