Brain tumour cells interconnect to a functional and resistant network

…, M Ratliff, K Karimian Jazi, FT Kurz, T Schmenger… - Nature, 2015 - nature.com
Astrocytic brain tumours, including glioblastomas, are incurable neoplasms characterized
by diffusely infiltrative growth. Here we show that many tumour cells in astrocytomas extend …

Glutamatergic synaptic input to glioma cells drives brain tumour progression

…, M Messer, SP Paik, J Knabbe, F Sahm, FT Kurz… - Nature, 2019 - nature.com
A network of communicating tumour cells that is connected by tumour microtubes mediates
the progression of incurable gliomas. Moreover, neuronal activity can foster malignant …

[HTML][HTML] Tumor cell plasticity, heterogeneity, and resistance in crucial microenvironmental niches in glioma

…, R Xie, S Weil, DC Hoffmann, FT Kurz, T Kessler… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
Both the perivascular niche (PVN) and the integration into multicellular networks by tumor
microtubes (TMs) have been associated with progression and resistance to therapies in …

Tweety-homolog 1 drives brain colonization of gliomas

…, G Solecki, K Deumelandt, FT Kurz… - Journal of …, 2017 - Soc Neuroscience
Early and progressive colonization of the healthy brain is one hallmark of diffuse gliomas,
including glioblastomas. We recently discovered ultralong (>10 to hundreds of microns) …

Diabetic neuropathy differs between type 1 and type 2 diabetes: insights from magnetic resonance neurography

…, M Pham, P Nawroth, M Bendszus, FT Kurz - Annals of …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Objective To visualize and quantify differences of microstructural nerve damage in distal
symmetric diabetic neuropathy (DPN) between type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D)…

Spatio-temporal oscillations of individual mitochondria in cardiac myocytes reveal modulation of synchronized mitochondrial clusters

FT Kurz, MA Aon, B O'Rourke… - Proceedings of the …, 2010 - National Acad Sciences
Mitochondrial networks in cardiac myocytes under oxidative stress show collective (cluster)
behavior through synchronization of their inner membrane potentials (ΔΨ m ). However, it is …

In vivo repeatability and multiscanner reproducibility of MRI radiomics features in patients with monoclonal plasma cell disorders: A prospective bi-institutional study

…, R Gnirs, FT Kurz, T Nonnenmacher… - Investigative …, 2023 - journals.lww.com
Objectives Despite the extensive number of publications in the field of radiomics, radiomics
algorithms barely enter large-scale clinical application. Supposedly, the low external …

[HTML][HTML] Neuron-specific biomarkers predict hypo-and hyperalgesia in individuals with diabetic peripheral neuropathy

J Morgenstern, JB Groener, JME Jende, FT Kurz… - Diabetologia, 2021 - Springer
Aims/hypothesis The individual risk of progression of diabetic peripheral neuropathy is difficult
to predict for each individual. Mutations in proteins that are responsible for the process of …

Association of serum cholesterol levels with peripheral nerve damage in patients with type 2 diabetes

…, M Pham, P Nawroth, M Bendszus, FT Kurz - JAMA network …, 2019 - jamanetwork.com
Importance Lowering serum cholesterol levels is a well-established treatment for dyslipidemia
in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, nerve lesions in patients with T2D …

[HTML][HTML] Diffusion tensor imaging of the sciatic nerve as a surrogate marker for nerve functionality of the upper and lower limb in patients with diabetes and prediabetes

…, P Nawroth, M Bendszus, S Kopf, FT Kurz - Frontiers in …, 2021 - frontiersin.org
Background Nerve damage in diabetic neuropathy (DN) is assumed to begin in the distal
legs with a subsequent progression to hands and arms at later stages. In contrast, recent …
