    • Alternative HER/PTEN/Akt pathway activation in HPV positive and negative penile carcinomas 

      Stankiewicz, Elzbieta; Prowse, David M.; Ng, Mansum; Cuzick, Jack; Mesher, David; Hiscock, Frances; Lu, Yong Jie; Watkin, Nicholas; Corbishley, Catherine; Lam, Wayne; Berney, Daniel M. (2011-03-10)
      Background: The pathogenesis of penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) is not well understood, though risk factors include human papillomavirus (HPV). Disruption of HER/PTEN/Akt pathway is present in many cancers; however ...
    • HPV infection and immunochemical detection of cell-cycle markers in verrucous carcinoma of the penis 

      Stankiewicz, Elzbieta; Kudahetti, Sakunthala C.; Prowse, David M.; Ktori, Elena; Cuzick, Jack; Ambroisine, Laurence; Zhang, Xiaoxi; Watkin, Nicholas; Corbishley, Catherine; Berney, Daniel M. (2009-09-01)
      Penile verrucous carcinoma is a rare disease and little is known of its aetiology or pathogenesis. In this study we examined cell-cycle proteins expression and correlation with human papillomavirus infection in a series ...
    • The retinoblastoma protein/p16INK4A pathway but not p53 is disrupted by human papillomavirus in penile squamous cell carcinoma 

      Stankiewicz, Elzbieta; Prowse, David M.; Ktori, Elena; Cuzick, Jack; Ambroisine, Laurence; Zhang, Xiaoxi; Kudahetti, Sakunthala; Watkin, Nicholas; Corbishley, Catherine; Berney, Daniel M. (2011-02-01)
      Aims: The pathogenesis of penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) is not well understood. Human papillomavirus (HPV) may be involved in carcinogenesis, but few studies have compared cell-cycle protein expression in HPV ...
