J Musculoskelet Neuronal Interact . 2014 Dec; 14(4):454-63. PMID: 25524971
Objectives: SHARPIN is a subunit of LUBAC and regulates activation of NF-κB, a pivotal transcription factor in skeletal homeostasis. Mutated SHARPIN gene (cpdm) mice develop chronic proliferative dermatitis and systemic...

J Musculoskelet Neuronal Interact . 2014 Jun; 14(2):162-72. PMID: 24879020
Objectives: Previous studies have shown galanin (GAL) injections onto mouse calvaria increased bone thickness and osteoblast number. This study investigated the effects of the GAL receptor agonist galnon on bone...

Colorectal Dis . 2012 Jun; 14(10):e701-7. PMID: 22731833
Aim: Current management of locally advanced rectal cancer includes neoadjuvant chemoradiation in selected patients to increase the chance of a tumour-free circumferential resection margin. There is uncertainty over the role...

Surgeon . 2008 Aug; 6(4):222-31. PMID: 18697365
Developments in rectal cancer imaging have revolutionised the management of this condition. It has become increasingly important for oncologists and surgeons to have a working insight into radiological assessment in...

Bone . 2006 Dec; 40(4):895-903. PMID: 17157570
We have previously shown that after bone fracture, galanin (GAL) and GAL receptor expression is increased in osteoblast-like cells of callus; however, the role of elevated GAL/GAL receptors in this...

Br J Cancer . 2006 Feb; 94(5):637-41. PMID: 16479253
There is increasing evidence that the presence of an ongoing systemic inflammatory response is associated with poor outcome in patients with advanced cancer. The aim of the present study was...
