Trosolwyg
Mae gen i ddiddordeb hir mewn firoleg a sut y gellir cymhwyso hyn at therapïau canser gan ddefnyddio fectorau "oncolytig" seiliedig ar adenoviral ("virotherapy"), sy'n deillio'n ôl i'm PhD (a ddyfarnwyd yn 2003 gan Brifysgol Birmingham.)
Cyn symud i Gaerdydd, roeddwn yn astudio fectorau adenoviral ar gyfer cymwysiadau trosiadol mewn clefyd cardiofasgwlaidd, lle roedd fy ymchwil wedi amlygu rhyngweithiadau allweddol rhwng firysau â ffactorau ceulo gwaed cynnal (yn fwyaf arbennig Ffactor X) sy'n pennu trobwynt a gwenwyndra fectorau firaol a weinyddir yn fewnwythiennol. Symudais i Brifysgol Caerdydd yn 2013, wedi'i yrru gan uchelgais hirdymor i arwain tîm sy'n arwain y byd yn datblygu "virotherapies" ar gyfer trin canser. Yn syth ar ôl fy recriwtio, dechreuais ddatblygu tîm, sydd bellach yn rhifo bron i 20. Cefais fy nyrchafu i Uwch-ddarlithydd yn 2014, i Ddarllenydd yn 2018, ac i Gadair Bersonol yn 2020.
Mae ymchwil yn fy ngrŵp yn canolbwyntio ar sawl agwedd ar adenoviroleg, gyda'r nod cyffredinol o ddatblygu firotherapïau mwy dethol ac effeithiol ar gyfer cymwysiadau trosiadol mewn canser, sef:
- Diffinio ac atal dos yn enetig sy'n cyfyngu ar ryngweithio rhwng celloedd firws a gwesteiwr, proteinau a derbynyddion.
- Datblygu technolegau targedu sy'n galluogi fectorau adenofirysol yn effeithlon i heintio celloedd canseraidd, gan adael celloedd "normal" heb eu heintio.
- Datblygu seroteipiau newydd o fectorau Adenoviral gyda trofannau newydd a chyffrous ar gyfer cymwysiadau trosiadol.
Rwy'n llysgennad STEMNet (http://networking.stemnet.org.uk/user/30519 cofrestredig), ac yn angerddol am yr angen i ymgysylltu â'r gymuned leyg i gyfleu gwyddoniaeth. Rwy'n chwarae rhan flaenllaw mewn ystod o weithgareddau ymgysylltu, gan gynnwys cyflwyno yn y diwrnod ymgysylltu cyhoeddus BSGCT blynyddol cyn y gynhadledd flynyddol, a hefyd mewn digwyddiadau "mewnol" ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd, lle rwyf wedi ymddangos mewn sawl erthygl blog (e.e. gweler https://www.bsgct.org/virotherapy-showcased-at-cardiff-cancer-open-day/ a https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iZquZ4K5E4 ). Yn fy rôl fel llysgennad STEM, rydw i'n mynychu fy ysgol leol yn rheolaidd i ennyn diddordeb y myfyrwyr mewn therapi genynnau a fy rôl fel gwyddonydd, a helpu gyda ffug gyfweliadau. Mae fy ngweithgareddau ymwneud ac ymgysylltu wedi ymddangos mewn Astudiaeth Achos Ysgol Meddygaeth (gweler https://www.cardiff.ac.uk/medicine/about-us/engagement/case-study-dr-alan-parker). Rwyf hefyd wedi ysgrifennu erthyglau lleyg ar gyfer y blog BSGCT (https://www.bsgct.org/author/alanparker/) ac adnoddau addysgol ASGCT. Rwy'n angerddol am wella rhagolygon gyrfa ar gyfer ymchwilwyr gyrfa gynnar (ECRs), ac fel aelod o fwrdd Cymdeithas Therapi Gene a Chelloedd Prydain, rwyf wedi sefydlu a rhedeg is-bwyllgor sy'n ymroddedig i ddatblygu Ymchwilwyr Gyrfa Gynnar, yn ogystal â diweddaru tudalen facebook BSGCT (www.facebook.com/BSGCT) a ffrwd Twitter (@_BSGCT) fel rhan o'm rôl ar is-bwyllgor cyfathrebu a hyrwyddo BSGCT.

Ymchwil
Firoleg Adenofirws
Mae ymchwil o fewn labordy Parker yn canolbwyntio ar ddatblygu fectorau adenofirysol oncolytig pwrpasol ar gyfer cymwysiadau canser trosiadol. Er mwyn cyflawni hyn, rydym yn datblygu firotherapïau dethol tiwmor sy'n heintio celloedd canser yn ddetholus, gan adael celloedd arferol heb eu heintio. Er mwyn cyflawni hyn, rydym yn cymryd dau ddull. Ein dull cyntaf yw dull "o'r gwaelod i fyny" sy'n cynnwys defnyddio Ad5, firws wedi'i ddisgrifio'n dda, wedi'i ddeall yn dda ac sy'n cael ei astudio'n dda yn glinigol. Er ei fod yn ddiogel, mae gan Ad5 nifer o nodweddion sy'n cyfyngu ar effeithiolrwydd fel firotherapi dethol tiwmor.
Yn gyntaf, mae'r derbynnydd Ad5 sylfaenol, hCAR (coxsackie dynol a derbynnydd adenovirus) yn cael ei fynegi'n hollbresennol ar gelloedd coch y gwaed ac ym mhob meinwe, sydd wedi'u lleoli ar gyffyrdd tynn, ond yn cael ei isreoleiddio yn aml neu hyd yn oed yn absennol mewn canserau datblygedig, ac felly mae'n cynrychioli targed gwael ar gyfer strategaethau targedu tiwmorau.
Yn ail, gall y defnydd o gelloedd imiwnedd, wedi'i gyfryngu gan y rhyngweithio rhwng integryn αvβ3 / 5 a'r protein sylfaen penton Ad5 hyrwyddo dogn sylweddol sy'n cyfyngu ar wenwyndra.
Yn olaf, mae cyflenwi intrafasgwlaidd Ad5, rhagofyniad ar gyfer therapi clefyd metastatig, yn cael ei gyfaddawdu ar gyfer Ad5 oherwydd y rhyngweithio affinedd uchel â'r ffactor ceulo gwaed, FX, sy'n pontio'r firws: cymhleth FX i HSPGs ac mae'n gyfrifol am y lefelau sylweddol o faint o bobl sy'n defnyddio hepatig o virotherapies seiliedig ar Ad5 (wedi'u goruchwylio yn ffigur 1). Er mwyn targedu'r fector basal mireinio i gelloedd tiwmor, rydym yn modiwleiddio'r fector ymhellach i ymgorffori ligands peptid sy'n rhwymo i farcwyr tiwmor penodol, fel integryn αvβ6 (ffigur 2).
Mae ein hail ddull yn cynrychioli dull "o'r brig i lawr." Mae Ad5 yn cynrychioli un o deulu amrywiol o firysau, ar hyn o bryd yn rhifo 57 seroteip, sy'n rhychwantu 7 rhywogaeth (A-G). Mae gan lawer o'r firysau hyn trofannau unigryw, wedi'u cyfryngu trwy ryngweithio â derbynyddion heb eu dogfennu eto. At hynny, anaml y mae llawer o'r seroteipiau Ad amgen hyn yn ynysig ac felly mae ganddynt lefelau cyfyngedig iawn o imiwnedd sy'n bodoli eisoes yn y boblogaeth gyffredinol, sy'n debygol o fod yn fanteisiol wrth eu defnyddio'n glinigol.
Rydym yn archwilio amrywiaeth naturiol trobwynt Ad trwy geisio datblygu fectorau sy'n seiliedig ar Hysbysebion prin ynysig o rywogaethau B a D. Rydym yn ymchwilio i ryngweithiadau derbynyddion posibl ar y lefel foleciwlaidd trwy ddatrys strwythur y trobwynt mawr sy'n pennu epitopau mewn cydraniad uwch-uchel gan ddiffreithiant pelydr-X, ac yn fiolegol trwy ddefnyddio technegau moleciwlaidd soffistigedig i gynhyrchu fectorau firaol chimerig. Cafodd ein papur diweddar ar strwythur a swyddogaeth rhywogaethau D (y gellir ei gyrchu yma http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-08599-y) ei gynnwys mewn sawl siop newyddion yn ddiweddar ac fe'i trafodwyd mewn datganiad i'r wasg (http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/news/view/1442255-seeing-the-unseeable)

Bywgraffiad
Dechreuodd fy niddordeb mewn therapi genynnau a chelloedd wrth astudio ar gyfer fy ngradd israddedig mewn Geneteg (Prifysgol Sheffield), a ysbrydolodd fi i ddilyn PhD yn y maes hwn. Perfformiwyd fy PhD dan oruchwyliaeth yr Athro Len Seymour (sydd bellach ym Mhrifysgol Rhydychen) yn Sefydliad Astudiaethau Canser CRUK ym Mhrifysgol Birmingham, a cwblheais fy thesis o'r enw "Datblygu Systemau Cyflenwi Gene wedi'u Targedu Peptid" yn 2003.
Fy swydd ôl-ddoethurol gyntaf oedd dan oruchwyliaeth yr Athro John Fabre, lle datblygais systemau peptid bioymateb newydd ar gyfer cyflwyno genynnau lleol (2003-2005) a chyhoeddais sawl erthygl o'r swydd hon. Tra yn y sefyllfa hon datblygais hefyd a phatentwyd ffurf amlbwrpas, drefnus iawn o nanoronyn ar gyfer dosbarthu cyffuriau cyflym, targedadwy neu mRNA / miRNAs i sytoplasm celloedd targed (Collins L, Parker AL et al, ACS Nano, 2010).
Fy awydd i weithio ar fectorau firaol ar gyfer cymwysiadau therapi genynnau a chelloedd gan arwain at adleoli i Brifysgol Glasgow o 2005-2013, lle gwnes gyfraniadau pwysig at sut mae fectorau Adenoviral (Ad) yn rhyngweithio â chelloedd a phroteinau lletyol, a sut mae'r rhyngweithiadau hyn yn pennu troffedd firaol a gwenwyndra. Yn 2007 dyfarnwyd Cymrodoriaeth Personol RSE nodedig i mi gynhyrchu fectorau Ad mwy diogel a mwy effeithiol ar gyfer cymwysiadau in vivo. Yn 2010-2013 roeddwn i'n Uwch Wyddonydd a ariannwyd gan BHF. Yn ystod y cyfnod hwn, cyhoeddais nifer o erthyglau effaith uchel (pathogenau Cell, Gwaed, PLoS, Therapi Moleciwlaidd, Journal of Virology), a phatent defnyddio Seroteip newydd ar gyfer cymwysiadau therapi genynnau.
Yn 2013 arweiniodd fy awydd i gymhwyso fy ngwybodaeth adenoviral yn y lleoliad canser at fy adleoli i Brifysgol Caerdydd fel Darlithydd ac arweinydd grŵp. Yn 2014 cefais fy nyrchafu yn Uwch Ddarlithydd, y Darllenydd yn 2018, ac i Athro Therapïau Trosiadol yn 2020. Ers 2020 rwy'n arwain rhaglen therapiwtig wedi'i thargedu yng Nghanolfan Ymchwil Canser Cymru (https://www.walescancerresearchcentre.org/wcrc/) a ariennir gan HCRW. Rwyf wedi bod yn aelod etholedig o fwrdd Cymdeithas Therapi Gene a Chelloedd Prydain (https://www.bsgct.org/) ers 2014, ac rwyf wedi bod yn Drysorydd i'r gymdeithas ers 2020.
Rwy'n ffodus i arwain grŵp o unigolion ymroddedig sy'n ehangu ac yn hynod dalentog yn yr Is-adran Canser a Geneteg, lle rydym yn symud ymlaen y genhedlaeth nesaf at y clinig, wedi'i ategu gan gefnogaeth ffanstatig gan ein prif gyllidwyr, Cancer Research UK, Cance Research Wales, Gofal Canser Tenovus, Ymchwil Iechyd a Gofal Cymru a KESS 2.

Ymgysylltu
I perform a significant amount of engagement activity on behalf of both School and for the British Society for Gene and Cell Therapy. I am a registered STEMNet ambassador, and regularly attend a variety of events including school outreach events to public and patient engagement events and science festivals, as well as writing lay blog articles on gene and cell therapy (see https://www.bsgct.org/author/alanparker/). My commitment to engagement has resulted in my featuring in a School of Medicine "Public Engagement and Involvement in Research" case study which can be accessed here http://alanp14.tripod.com/Papers/_parkercasestudy.pdf
