This study investigated the potential effects of fermented sardinelle protein hydrolysates (FSPHs) obtained by two proteolytic bacteria,

Simulations of atomic resolution tip-enhanced optical microscopy.

Optics express

Downes A, Salter D, Elfick A.
PMID: 19529549
Opt Express. 2006 Nov 13;14(23):11324-9. doi: 10.1364/oe.14.011324.

Optical techniques can access a wealth of information but traditionally their resolution has been restricted by the diffraction limit. Near-field techniques, which used nanoscale apertures or nanotip electric field enhancement, have succeeded in circumventing Abbe's law. We show that...

Novel agents for advanced bladder cancer.

Therapeutic advances in medical oncology

Sonpavde G, Elfiky AA, Rosenberg JE.
PMID: 21789112
Ther Adv Med Oncol. 2009 Jul;1(1):37-50. doi: 10.1177/1758834009337776.

Conventional front-line platinum-based combination chemotherapy yields high response rates but suboptimal long-term outcomes for advanced transitional cell carcinoma. Salvage therapy is an unmet need with disappointing outcomes. The emergence of novel biologic agents offers the promise of improved outcomes....

A single-centre chart review exploring the adjusted association between breast cancer phenotype and prognosis.

Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.)

Hamm C, El-Masri M, Poliquin G, Poliquin V, Mathews J, Kanjeekal S, Alam Y, Kulkarni S, Elfiki T.
PMID: 21874118
Curr Oncol. 2011 Aug;18(4):191-6. doi: 10.3747/co.v18i4.815.

PURPOSE AND METHODS: Using a retrospective chart review, we investigated the differences in survival and prognostic factors between patients with triple-negative breast cancer (tnbc) and those with non-tnbc. The review included 1018 breast cancer patients who were diagnosed between...

Non linear optical microscopy of adipose-derived stem cells induced towards osteoblasts and adipocytes.

Proceedings of SPIE--the International Society for Optical Engineering

Mouras R, Bagnaninchi P, Downes A, Muratore M, Elfick A.
PMID: 22318871
Proc SPIE Int Soc Opt Eng. 2011 Jun 08;8086. doi: 10.1117/12.889780.

Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are adult stem cells isolated from lipoaspirates. They are a good candidate for autologuous cell therapy and tissue engineering. For these applications, label-free imaging could be critical to assess noninvasively the efficiency of stem cell...

Raman spectroscopy and CARS microscopy of stem cells and their derivatives.
