Publications
Cellular and sub-cellular responses to UVA in relation to carcinogenesisAndrew J Ridley
Division of Biomedical and Life Sciences, School of Health and Medicine, Lancaster University, UK
Int J Radiat Biol 85:177-95. 2009..The aim of this review is to consider the mechanisms that underlie UVA-induced cellular damage, how this damage may be prevented or repaired and the signal transduction processes that are elicited in response to it...
DNA end-processing enzyme polynucleotide kinase as a potential target in the treatment of cancerSarah L Allinson
School of Health and Medicine, Division of Biomedical and Life Sciences, Lancaster University, Lancaster LA14YQ, UK
Future Oncol 6:1031-42. 2010..Although still in the early stages of development, PNK inhibition represents a promising means of enhancing the efficacy of existing cancer treatments...
Cadmium and copper inhibit both DNA repair activities of polynucleotide kinaseJames R Whiteside
Division of Biomedical and Life Sciences, School of Health and Medicine, Lancaster University, Lancaster, UK
DNA Repair (Amst) 9:83-9. 2010..The inhibition of PNK by environmentally and physiologically relevant concentrations of cadmium and copper suggests a novel means by which these toxic heavy metals may exert their carcinogenic and neurotoxic effects...
Timeframes of UVA-induced bystander effects in human keratinocytesJames R Whiteside
Division of Biomedical and Life Sciences, School of Health and Medicine, Lancaster University, Lancaster, UK
Photochem Photobiol 87:435-40. 2011..These data indicate that a single exposure to UVA can exert an effect for several days postirradiation, thus amplifying the deleterious effects of exposure...
The phosphatase activity of mammalian polynucleotide kinase takes precedence over its kinase activity in repair of single strand breaksCaroline J Dobson
Biomedical Sciences Unit, Department of Biological Sciences, Lancaster University, Lancaster, LA1 4YQ, UK
Nucleic Acids Res 34:2230-7. 2006..PNK preferentially binds 3'-phosphorylated substrates and DNA binding to the phosphatase domain blocks further DNA binding by the kinase domain...
Growth kinetics in MCF-7 cells modulate benzo[a]pyrene-induced CYP1A1 up-regulationHaiyan Jiao
Biomedical Sciences Unit, Department of Biological Sciences, Lancaster University, Lancaster LA1 4YQ, UK
Mutagenesis 22:111-6. 2007....
