Targeting oncogenic drivers.
Cancer is a genetic disease caused by a series of somatic and/or germline mutations. The roles of oncogenes and tumor suppressors in cancer molecular origin have been well established. Targeting oncogene products has become an attractive therapeutic strategy with great clinical success, whereas tumor suppressors are considered 'undruggable' because current technology is not able to restore tumo...
متن کاملOncogenic drivers and mitochondrial dependency
metabolically targeted approaches to cancer therapy have focused on the reliance of cancer cells on glycolysis for energy metabolism. The Warburg effect is thought to minimize the role of mitochondrial metabolism in the survival of cancer cells. We recently demonstrated that BCR-ABL-driven leukemic cells become reliant on the TCA cycle for energy production upon inhibition of the dominant tyros...
متن کاملLeptomeningeal metastases in pineoblastoma.
To cite: Sandip S, Das CJ, Khandelwal RK. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2015210343 DESCRIPTION Pineoblastoma is one of the pineal parenchymal tumours, which are rare tumours and account for approximately 15% of all tumours found in the pineal region. They are malignant tumours that infiltrate the adjacent structures by direct invasion and tend to...
متن کاملMutant Cbl proteins as oncogenic drivers in myeloproliferative disorders
Casitas B-lineage lymphoma (Cbl) family proteins are evolutionarily-conserved attenuators of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) signaling. Biochemical analyses over the past two decades have firmly established that the negative regulatory functions of Cbl proteins are mediated through their ability to facilitate ubiquitination and thus promote degradation of PTKs. As aberrant activation of PTKs is f...
متن کاملRecurrent Pineoblastoma Responsive to Chemotherapy
Pineoblastomas are malignant embryonal tumours that are classified as suprasellar primitive neuroectodermal tumours. Incidence of pineoblastoma is approximately 0.1% to 0.3% of histogically verified primary malignant brain tumours. This case report concerns a 19-year-old male with a mass lesion in an area posterior to third ventricle, which was diagnosed as pineoblastoma. He achieved complete r...
