Chemotherapy-resistant human acute myeloid leukemia cells are not enriched for leukemic stem cells but require oxidative metabolism

…, N Serhan, A Sarry, S Tavitian, T Kaoma, L Vallar… - Cancer discovery, 2017 - AACR
Chemotherapy-resistant human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells are thought to be enriched
in quiescent immature leukemic stem cells (LSC). To validate this hypothesis in vivo, we …

Signatures of microRNAs and selected microRNA target genes in human melanoma

…, D Moser, C Margue, PV Nazarov, A Muller, L Vallar… - Cancer research, 2010 - AACR
Small noncoding microRNAs (miRNA) regulate the expression of target mRNAs by repressing
their translation or orchestrating their sequence-specific degradation. In this study, we …

Neurodegeneration by activation of the microglial complement–phagosome pathway

…, R Musgrove, T Kaoma, A Muller, L Vallar… - Journal of …, 2014 - Soc Neuroscience
Systemic inflammatory reactions have been postulated to exacerbate neurodegenerative
diseases via microglial activation. We now demonstrate in vivo that repeated systemic …

Interplay of microRNAs, transcription factors and target genes: linking dynamic expression changes to function

…, A Muller, N Nicot, D Philippidou, L Vallar… - Nucleic acids …, 2013 - academic.oup.com
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are ubiquitously expressed small non-coding RNAs that, in most cases,
negatively regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. miRNAs are involved …

miR-661 expression in SNAI1-induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition contributes to breast cancer cell invasion by targeting Nectin-1 and StarD10 messengers

G Vetter, A Saumet, M Moes, L Vallar, A Le Béchec… - Oncogene, 2010 - nature.com
Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key step toward metastasis. MCF7 breast
cancer cells conditionally expressing the EMT master regulator SNAI1 were used to identify …

The acquisition of resistance to TNFα in breast cancer cells is associated with constitutive activation of autophagy as revealed by a transcriptome analysis using a …

…, A Muller, K Van Moer, N Nicot, PV Nazarov, L Vallar… - Autophagy, 2011 - Taylor & Francis
While the autophagic process is mainly regulated at the post-translational level, a growing
body of evidence suggests that autophagy might also be regulated at the transcriptional level. …

[HTML][HTML] Comprehensive analysis of glycolytic enzymes as therapeutic targets in the treatment of glioblastoma

…, A Oudin, A Dirkse, T Kaoma, L Vallar… - PloS one, 2015 - journals.plos.org
Major efforts have been put in anti-angiogenic treatment for glioblastoma (GBM), an aggressive
and highly vascularized brain tumor with dismal prognosis. However clinical outcome …

Sequence and comparative genomic analysis of actin-related proteins

J Muller, Y Oma, L Vallar, E Friederich… - Molecular biology of …, 2005 - Am Soc Cell Biol
Actin-related proteins (ARPs) are key players in cytoskeleton activities and nuclear functions.
Two complexes, ARP2/3 and ARP1/11, also known as dynactin, are implicated in actin …

[HTML][HTML] Glioblastomas are composed of genetically divergent clones with distinct tumourigenic potential and variable stem cell-associated phenotypes

…, S Bougnaud, F Hertel, R Bjerkvig, L Vallar… - Acta …, 2014 - Springer
Glioblastoma (GBM) is known to be a heterogeneous disease; however, the genetic composition
of the cells within a given tumour is only poorly explored. In the advent of personalised …

[HTML][HTML] Regulation of hypoxia-induced autophagy in glioblastoma involves ATG9A

…, J Bohler, V Barthelemy, A Muller, L Vallar… - British journal of …, 2017 - nature.com
Background: Hypoxia is negatively associated with glioblastoma (GBM) patient survival and
contributes to tumour resistance. Anti-angiogenic therapy in GBM further increases hypoxia …
