Translational Control: Awakening dormant mRNAs
The translational control of many maternal mRNAs in oocytes and early embryos relies on changes in poly(A) tail length; the factors controlling poly(A) tail length are being identified in a range of species.
متن کاملTargeting Breast Cancer Metastasis
Metastasis is the leading cause of breast cancer-associated deaths. Despite the significant improvement in current therapies in extending patient life, 30-40% of patients may eventually suffer from distant relapse and succumb to the disease. Consequently, a deeper understanding of the metastasis biology is key to developing better treatment strategies and achieving long-lasting therapeutic effi...
متن کاملTargeting lemurs against cancer metastasis
Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of mortality in females worldwide. Despite the great improvement in survival rates the last two decades, relapsed disease with metastasis still remains the most poorly understood aspect of cancer pathogenesis [1]. Consequently, there is a growing need to identify so-called new ‘players’ implicated in this process. Lemur...
متن کاملBrain metastasis research: a late awakening.
Brain metastases are very frequent and life-limiting complications in cancer patients and are associated with serious neurological and neurocognitive symptoms (1). It is estimated that up to 30% of cancer patients develop brain metastases during their disease course, with lung cancer, breast cancer, melanoma and renal cell cancer carrying the highest risk of central nervous system (CNS) spread....
متن کاملTargeting invadopodia to block breast cancer metastasis
Better understanding the mechanisms underlying the metastatic process is essential to developing novel targeted therapeutics. Recently, invadopodia have been increasingly recognized as important drivers of local invasion in metastasis. Invadopodia are basally-localized, actin-rich structures that concentrate protease activity to areas of the cell in contact with the extracellular matrix. We rec...
