نویسندگان
چکیده
The 22nd annual Pezcoller Symposium titled "RNA Biology and Cancer" was held in Trento, Italy, on June 10-12, 2010. The program of the symposium was developed by Drs. Rene Bernards, Witold Filipowicz, and David Livingston; they cochaired the meeting in cooperation with Dr. Enrico Mihich. The topics discussed included the opportunities offered by small RNA as tools for cancer drug development, the role of noncoding RNAs, the biochemistry of small RNAs, the function of micro RNA in cancer, and RNAs as diagnostics and therapeutics in cancer.

Ninth annual Pezcoller Symposium: The biology of tumors.
The Ninth annual Pezcoller Symposium was held in Rovereto, Italy, on June 4 to 7, 1997, and focused on molecular mechanisms underlying the biology of tumors. The genetic mechanisms underlying heterogeneity of tumor cell populations and tumor cell differentiation were discussed. Tumor cells closely interact with host cells and cell products having different functions, and these interactions play...

متن کاملEighth Annual Pezcoller Symposium: genomic instability and immortality in cancer.
The Eighth Annual Pezcoller Symposium focused on the mecha nism of genetic instability, a characteristic of neoplastic cells that also determines tumor progression. Immortality as a consequence of the lack of susceptibility to mechanisms of maturation, senescence, and/or apoptosis was also discussed because it is another pivotal character istic of the neoplastic cell. Mutational lability, chang...
متن کاملSixteenth Annual Pezcoller Symposium: stem cells and epigenesis in cancer.
In the postgenomic era of cancer biology, it is becoming increasingly evident that epigenetic controls of gene expression play an important role in determining the phenotype of cancer cells, also indicating the possibility of restoring epigenetically a normal phenotype in cancer cells. Related to these mechanisms of control and their dynamic changes during carcinogenesis and tumor progression a...
متن کاملFifteenth annual Pezcoller symposium: molecular in vivo visualization of cancer cells.
Recent advances in the understanding of the molecular phenomena underlying neoplastic development are leading to the recognition of metabolic features characteristic of the cancer cell. It has become possible to visualize the presence of these cells in vivo and to follow their progression toward increasing anaplastic behavior through measurements of molecular markers that can be achieved by phy...
