  • Alterations in miRNA processing and expression in pleomorphic adenomas of the salivary gland 
    Zhang Xy; Cairns M; Rose Barbara; O'Brien Christopher; Shannon K; Clark J; Gamble J; Tran Nham (Wiley-Liss, 2009)
    Genome-wide microRNA (miRNA) expression profiling of salivary gland pleomorphic adenomas revealed a distinct expression signature consisting largely of upregulated miRNAs compared with matched normal tissue. Microarray ...
  • The estimation of pig bone age for forensic application using thermogravimetric analysis 
    O'Brien Christopher; Guerbois Jean-Pierre; Raja Sophil; Stuart Barbara; Thomas Paul (Akademiai Kiado Rt, 2009)
    An accurate means of determining bone age is a goal for forensic scientists. In this study, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) has been used to examine pig bone specimens of different post-mortem age. Analysis of bone in ...
  • Human papillomavirus in the oral cavity of patients with and without renal transplantation 
    Rose Barbara; Wilkins D; Li W; Tran Nham; Thompson C; Cossart Y; Mcgeechan K; O'Brien Christopher; Eris J (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2006)
    This study investigates human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in the oral cavities of 88 Australian renal transplant recipients and 88 immunocompetent controls. Oral cavities were examined for lesions and brushings collected ...
  • MicroRNA expression profiles in head and neck cancer cell lines 
    Tran Nham; Mclean T; Zhang X; Zhao Cj; Thomson Jm; O'Brien Christopher; Rose Barbara (Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2007)
    Non-coding RNA molecules such as microRNAs (miRNAs) may play an important role in human carcinogenesis. Their expression has been profiled in many human cancers but there are few published studies in head and neck cancer. ...
  • New evidence for geographic variation in the role of human papillomavirus in tonsillar carcinogenesis 
    Li W; Tran Nham; Lee Cs; O'Brien Christopher; Tse Gm; Scolyer Ra; Hong A; Milross C; Yu Kh; Rose Barbara (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2007)
    Aims: Our previous studies of tonsillar cancers from New South Wales, Australia, and Jilin Province in the north-east of China, provided evidence that the proportion of these cancers attributable to human papillomavirus ...
  • Oestrogen receptor beta expression in pleomorphic adenomas of the parotid gland 
    Wong Mhw; Dobbins Ta; Tseung J; Tran Nham; Lee Cs; O'Brien Christopher; Clark J; Rose Barbara (B M J Publishing Group, 2009)
    Aims: Pleomorphic adenomas of the salivary gland have gender and age distributions suggesting that oestrogen has a causal role. However, oestrogen receptor (ER)alpha is expressed at low levels in normal salivary gland ...
  • Potential Role Of Micro-RNAs In Head And Neck Tumorigenesis 
    Tran Nham; O'Brien Christopher; Clark J; Rose Barbara (John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2010)
    A new class of regulatory molecules known as microRNAs (miRNAs) is redefining our understanding of the molecular pathways associated with tumorigenesis. These miRNAs are small noncoding RNA (ncRNA) sequences with potent ...
  • Pyrolysis gas chromatography - mass spectrometry analysis for the estimation of pig bone age for forensic application 
    Raja Sophil; Stuart Barbara; Thomas Paul; O'Brien Christopher (Coimbra University Press, 2010)
    The potential of pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Py-GCMS ) as a tool for the estimation of post-mortem age of bones has been investigated. Pig bone specimens prepared under controlled burial conditions in ...
  • Role of human papillomavirus in the etiology of head and neck cancer 
    Tran Nham; Rose Barbara; O'Brien Christopher (John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2007)
    Head and neck cancer is the world's sixth most common cancer, but despite advances in treatment, there has been no significant decline in the mortality rate. In recent years, there has been mounting epidemiologic and ...
  • A study of adipocere in soil collected from a field leaching study 
    Cassar Joseph; Stuart Barbara; Dent Boyd; Notter Stephanie; Forbes Shari; O'Brien Christopher; Dadour Ian (John Rowe, 2011)
    An investigation of a post-mortem product, adipocere, resulting from the decomposition of a pig carcass left on a soil surface is reported. The presence of this material should provide valuable information for forensic ...
