Uwch Ddarlithydd mewn Bioleg Cell a Tumour, Cyfarwyddwr Ymchwil Ôl-raddedig
Trosolwyg
Ar ôl PhD mewn Bioleg Moleciwlaidd ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd, dechreuais yrfa ôl-ddoethurol yng Ngholeg Meddygaeth Prifysgol Cymru, gan ymchwilio i rôl Ffactor Twf Hepatocyte (HGF) ar endothelia. Arweiniodd hyn at y cyfle i archwilio HGF a'i wrthwynebydd NK4 mewn canser. Ers 1998, rwyf wedi bod yn ymwneud ag ymchwilio i rôl cyffyrdd tynn mewn canser (yn ystod metastasis) ac mewn endothelia (yn ystod angiogenesis). Mae fy niddordebau ymchwil yn cynnwys ymchwilio i sut y gellir modiwleiddio cyffyrdd tynn i reoli datgysylltiad a goresgyniad celloedd canser, ynghyd â diddordeb parhaus mewn ffactorau angiogenig a'u rôl mewn metastasis. Mae gen i ddiddordeb penodol mewn metastasis yr ymennydd ac mae rôl cyffyrdd tynn yn ennill y rhwystr gwaed-ymennydd. Mae fy nhîm yn reearching yn weithredol y mecanweithiau sylfaenol dan sylw a thargedau therapiwtig posibl / therapïau newydd.

Ymchwil
Cyffyrdd celloedd fel cyfryngwyr neu rwystrau i ledaenu celloedd a'r rheoleiddwyr ohono
- Mae'r Cyffordd Dynn (TJ) yn rhanbarth lle mae pilen plasma celloedd cyfagos yn ffurfio cyfres o gysylltiadau sy'n ymddangos eu bod yn atal y gofod allgellog yn llwyr gan greu rhwystr rhynggellog a ffens trylediad intramembrane.
- Mewn celloedd epithelaidd, mae'r TJ yn gweithredu mewn modd gludiog a gall atal datgysylltu celloedd tra bod TJs mewn celloedd endothelaidd yn gweithredu fel rhwystr lle gall moleciwlau a chelloedd llidiol basio.
- Mae corff sylweddol o waith bellach yn bodoli ar TJ a'u rôl mewn nifer o glefydau.
- Mae TJs wedi cael eu cydnabod fel chwaraewyr allweddol mewn metastasis canser. Awgrymodd astudiaethau cynnar fod cysylltiad rhwng lleihau proteinau TJ a gwahaniaethu tiwmorau a chynyddu tystiolaeth arbrofol wedi dod i'r amlwg i osod TJs yn y rheng flaen fel y strwythur y mae'n rhaid i gelloedd canser ei oresgyn er mwyn metastasize.
- Mae rhyngweithio a threiddiad yr endotheliwm fasgwlaidd gan gelloedd canser datgysylltiol yn gam pwysig wrth ffurfio metastases canser.
- Mae angen newidiadau mewn celloedd tiwmor ac endothelaidd ar gyfer twf a lledaeniad celloedd canser yn llwyddiannus a bod y newidiadau hyn ychydig yn debyg.
- Mae newid mewn celloedd canser trwy uwchreoleiddio neu isreoleiddio proteinau TJ perthnasol yn arwain at golli cysylltiad celloedd-gell, atal cyswllt celloedd, gan arwain at dwf heb reolaeth, colli adlyniad i'r islawr a diraddio.
- Rhaid i'r rhain fod yn golled gydamserol o gysylltiad cell-gell yn endotheliwm a modwleiddio proteinau TJ sy'n ymwneud â hwyluso hynt y celloedd canser trwy'r rhwystr hwn.
- Rydym wedi dangos bod mynegiant gwahaniaethol o nifer o broteinau TJ trawsmembrane, yn enwedig Occludin, Claudin-5 a'r Nectin a'u bod yn cydberthyn ag aflonyddwch TJs mewn tiwmorau.
- Mae modiwleiddio mynegiant o'r proteinau hyn yn arwain at newidiadau allweddol mewn swyddogaeth rhwystr gan arwain at ddilyniant canser a dilyniant metastasis.

Bywgraffiad
Trosolwg o'r gyrfa
Arweinydd Tîm ac Uwch Ddarlithydd: Fy niddordebau ymchwil yw ymchwilio i rôl Cyffyrdd Tynn yn dilyniant canser, ac ymchwilio i sut y gellir eu modiwleiddio mewn clefyd anfalaen a patholegol, gyda ffocws ar glefyd metastatig yr ymennydd. Mae gen i ddiddordeb parhaus mewn ffactorau angiogenig a'u rôl mewn metastasis. Rwy'n goruchwylio nifer fawr o PhD, MD a chymrodyr ymchwil gwadd, mynychu cynadleddau cenedlaethol a rhyngwladol (rwyf wedi cyflwyno dros 70 o bapurau), ysgrifennu papurau ymchwil gwreiddiol, adolygiadau (llawer wedi'u gwahodd) a phenodau llyfrau (gwahoddedig). Yn ystod y 10 mlynedd diwethaf, cefais fy nghyflogi i weithio ar 2 brosiect mawr fel gwyddonydd ymchwil: noddwyd y cyntaf gan Abbot Pharmaceuticals (2003-2005) ac roedd yn cynnwys ymchwilio i ffactorau a allai effeithio ar gelloedd canser y fron anfalaen a malaen mewn perthynas â "gollyngiadau" cellog. Roedd hyn yn ymwneud yn uniongyrchol â Tight Junctions fel rheolwyr.
2003 - 2020 Darlithydd: Datblygu ffocau ymchwil ar Gyffyrdd Tynn mewn cacner a chlefyd metastatig. Rhwng 2006-2011 cefais fy nghyflogi fel gwyddonydd ymchwil ar grant rhaglen a noddir gan Ymchwil Canser Cymru. Roedd hyn yn cynnwys archwilio Ffactor Twf Hepatocyte (HGF) a sut mae'r cytocin hwn yn dylanwadu ar farcwyr bôn-gelloedd mewn canser y fron a'r prostad (a ariennir gan Ymchwil Canser Cymru). Arweiniodd y gwaith hwn at ddyfarnu'r AACR-CTR-SABSC-Susan G, Komen ar gyfer yr Ysgoloriaeth Cure ar gyfer "Gwerthuso dosbarthiad marcwyr bôn-gelloedd (PSCA, CD44, CD49b a CD133) mewn canser y fron dynol yn datgelu cydberthynas â dilyniant clinigol a chlefyd metastatig mewn carcinoma ductal".
Mawrth 2000 - Gorffennaf 2003 Cymrawd Ymchwil: Ymgymerodd â rhaglen o ymchwil i bennu, gan ddefnyddio technegau moleciwlaidd, cellog ac in vivo, mecanweithiau metastasis canser yn enwedig cymhwyso posibl gwrthwynebwyr sydd newydd eu darganfod i ffactorau twf fel offeryn gwrth-metastasis (Sefydliad Canser y Fron Susan G. Komen ar gyfer astudiaeth ar 'NK4, gwrthwynebydd HGF / SF, fel asiant gwrth-metastatig newydd mewn canser y fron). Dilynwyd hyn gan brosiect a noddwyd gan CR-UK a oedd yn cynnwys creu cyfansoddyn gwrth-metastasis/angiogenesis. Dechreuais hefyd ymchwilio i'r rôl y gall Cyffyrdd Tynn a'u cyfansoddion moleciwlaidd gael mewn metastasis canser y fron. Cydnabuwyd yr ymchwil hon yn Symposiwm Canser y Fron San Antonio 2002, lle cefais fy anrhydeddu â Gwobrau Ysgolhaig Astra-Zeneca sy'n dangos bod moleciwlau cyffordd dynn yn cael eu colli yn y cleifion hynny â chanser y fron metastatig.
Mehefin 1997 - Mawrth 2000 Cymrawd Ymchwil: Sefydlu rôl ffibroblastau yn y broses o atgyweirio meinwe a metastasis canser, nodi ffactorau sy'n deillio o ffibroblastau sy'n gyfrifol am effaith reoleiddiol ffibroblastau, wrth hyrwyddo angiogenesis, yn yr Uned Ymchwil Iachau Clwyfau, Adran Llawfeddygaeth y Brifysgol yn Y Drindod Dewi Sant, Caerdydd, y DU ar gyfer yr Athro K.G. Harding (a ariennir gan Smith & Nephew/Advanced Tissue Science Joint Venture).
