The role of proinsulin C-peptide and G-protein coupled receptor 146 (GPR146) – clinical observation of their signaling pathway’s impact on molecular pathways involved in diabetes-related complications.

The project aims to investigate the role of proinsulin C-peptide and G-protein coupled receptor 146 (GPR146) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complications. C-peptide is a short peptide that influences multiple cellular pathways, and its role in diabetes complications has become increasingly evident. The study postulates that C-peptide interacts with the GPR146 receptor, which may […]

Our new paper in Lancet Oncology!

We are pleased to inform about the success of our Ph.D. student Damian Mikulski, M.D. – the results of the ATLAS clinical trial (PMC006) in which he participated were published in the Lancet Oncology (IF 54.433) in the manuscript “Carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone or lenalidomide alone as maintenance therapy after autologous stem-cell transplantation in patients […]

Intrinsic tumour radiosensitivity as a marker of chemoradiotherapy-induced immunogenic effects in rectal cancer

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death in the world. Standard treatment of patients with locally advanced cancer of the rectum includes chemoradiotherapy (CHRT) before surgery. In recent years, the new standard of treatment for some patients with CRC has become immunotherapy with the use of so-called immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) […]
