Baguma-Nibasheka M, Macfarlane L, Murphy P
Genes (Basel) . 2014 Apr; 3(3):505-20. PMID: 24704982
Basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF2) is a potent wide-spectrum mitogen whose overexpression is associated with immortalization and unregulated cell proliferation in many tumors. The FGF2 gene locus is bi-directionally transcribed...

McEachern L, Murphy P
Mol Endocrinol . 2014 Feb; 28(4):477-89. PMID: 24552587
Antisense transcription is prevalent in mammalian genomes, yet the function of many antisense transcripts remains elusive. We have previously shown that the fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) gene is regulated...

Macfarlane L, Murphy P
Curr Genomics . 2011 May; 11(7):537-61. PMID: 21532838
MicroRNAs are small, highly conserved non-coding RNA molecules involved in the regulation of gene expression. MicroRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerases II and III, generating precursors that undergo a series...

Macfarlane L, Murphy P
Mol Carcinog . 2010 Oct; 49(12):1031-44. PMID: 20945415
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) and its endogenous antisense RNA FGF antisense (FGF-AS) have been implicated in cancer progression and correlated with clinical outcomes of cancer patients. We previously reported that...

Macfarlane L, Gu Y, Casson A, Murphy P
Mol Endocrinol . 2010 Mar; 24(4):800-12. PMID: 20197313
We have previously reported that elevated fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) expression is associated with tumor recurrence and reduced survival after surgical resection of esophageal cancer and that these risks are...

Zhang S, MacDonald K, Baguma-Nibasheka M, Geldenhuys L, Casson A, Murphy P
BMC Mol Biol . 2008 Jan; 9:10. PMID: 18215310
Background: GFG/NUDT is a nudix hydrolase originally identified as the product of the fibroblast growth factor-2 antisense (FGF-AS) gene. While the FGF-AS RNA has been implicated as an antisense regulator...

Thomas L, Douglas R, Lazier C, Gupta R, Norman R, Murphy P, et al.
J Urol . 2007 Nov; 179(1):147-51. PMID: 17997435
Purpose: In the prostate testosterone is converted to dihydrotestosterone by 5alpha-reductase type 1 and/or 2. Although 5alpha-reductase type 2 is predominant in normal prostates, type 1 is increased in cancer...

Zhang S, Barclay C, Alexander L, Geldenhuys L, Porter G, Casson A, et al.
J Mol Med (Berl) . 2007 Jun; 85(11):1215-28. PMID: 17569023
Overexpression of FGF-2 is associated with tumor recurrence and reduced survival after surgical resection of esophageal cancer, and these risks are reduced in tumors co-expressing the FGF antisense (FGF-AS) RNA....

Baguma-Nibasheka M, Barclay C, Li A, Geldenhuys L, Porter G, Blay J, et al.
Mol Carcinog . 2007 May; 46(12):971-80. PMID: 17477358
Inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 is reported to suppress growth and induce apoptosis in human esophageal adenocarcinoma (EADC) cells, although the precise biologic mechanism is unclear. In this study we tested...

Baguma-Nibasheka M, Li A, Murphy P
Mol Cell Endocrinol . 2007 Feb; 267(1-2):127-36. PMID: 17306451
Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) is a potent heparin-binding protein with growth-promoting and anti-apoptotic activity. Transcription of the GFG/NUDT6 gene on the opposite DNA strand generates an overlapping antisense RNA (FGF-AS)...
