Cancer: Signal Transduction
Mikala Egeblad and colleagues study tumors and, in particular, the contributions of the microenvironment in which the cancer cells arise and live. Solid tumors are abnormally organized tissues that contain not only cancer cells, but also various stromal cell types and the extracellular matrix, and these latter components constitute the microenvironment. Communications between the different comp...
متن کاملCancer Biology and Signal Transduction
The transcription factor signal STAT5 is constitutively activated in a wide range of leukemias and lymphomas, and drives the expression of genes necessary for proliferation, survival, and self-renewal. Thus, targeting STAT5 is an appealing therapeutic strategy for hematologic malignancies. Given the importance of bromodomain-containing proteins in transcriptional regulation, we considered the h...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms in signal transduction and cancer.
Introduction Good weather and a pint of apple juice (although we thought we had ordered beer) at a farmhouse opposite the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) heralded the start of the 15th conference on ‘Oncogenes & Growth Control’. The participants had the opportunity to enjoy the friendly atmosphere at the EMBL, the hospitality of the staff and the tasty food. And of course, a series...
متن کاملSignal transduction in prostate cancer progression.
Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer among men and the second leading cause of male cancer deaths in the United States. When prostate cancer initially presents in the clinic, the tumour is dependent on androgen for growth and, therefore, responsive to the surgical or pharmacological ablation of circulating androgens. However, there is a high rate of treatment failure because ...
متن کاملCell adhesion and signal transduction in cancer
Introduction Cadherin cell-adhesion molecules and their intracellular binding partners, catenins, were discovered in the 1980s (for a review, see Takeichi, 1995). Interest in these molecules was sparked by the discovery that cadherins and, subsequently, catenins are important in the formation and metastasis of carcinomas (Behrens et al, 1989; Berx et al, 1998; Perl et al, 1998; Polakis, 2000). ...
