    Unique somatic and malignant expression patterns implicate PIWI-interacting RNAs in cancer-type specific biology

    Human PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are known to be expressed in germline cells, functionally silencing LINEs and SINEs. Their expression patterns in somatic tissues are largely uncharted. We analyzed 6,260 h...

    The Antiarrhythmic Drug, Dronedarone, Demonstrates Cytotoxic Effects in Breast Cancer Independent of Thyroid Hormone Receptor Alpha 1 (THRα1) Antagonism

    Previous research has suggested that thyroid hormone receptor alpha 1 (THRα1), a hormone responsive splice variant, may play a role in breast cancer progression. Whether THRα1 can be exploited for anti-cancer ...
