Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional bioprinting of complex cell laden alginate hydrogel structures
TL;DR: A new extrusion based bioprinting technique was developed to produce more complex alginate hydrogel structures and the addition of 60 mM barium chloride was found to significantly extend the stability of the cross-linked alginates from 3 d to beyond 11 d without compromising the cellular viability.
Journal ArticleDOI
GSK3 and its interactions with the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling network
TL;DR: A major role of GSK3 can be viewed as an amplifier of the electrostatic effects on protein function which are caused by these priming phosphorylation events, specific to individual substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prostate cancer, PI3K, PTEN and prognosis.
TL;DR: Factors and the consequences of PTEN loss are discussed, in the context of its role as a lipid phosphatase, as well as current efforts to use available inhibitors of specific components of the PI3K/PTEN/TOR signalling network in prostate cancer treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Class I PI 3-kinases: Function and evolution.
TL;DR: The broad phylogenetic distribution of class I PI3Ks in metazoa, amoebozoa and choannoflagellates implies that these enzymes evolved in single celled organisms and were later co-opted into metazoan intercellular communication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three dimensional in vitro models of cancer: Bioprinting multilineage glioblastoma models.

TL;DR: A novel 3D bioprinting strategy is developed which allows control over the spatial organisation of tumour constructs for pre-clinical drug sensitivity testing and studies of the tumour microenvironment.
