چکیده

The study of pathway disruption is key to understanding cancer biology. Advances in high throughput technologies have led to the rapid accumulation of genomic data. The explosion in available data has generated opportunities for investigation of concerted changes that disrupt biological functions, this in turns created a need for computational tools for pathway analysis. In this review, we discuss approaches to the analysis of genomic data and describe the publicly available resources for studying biological pathways.

KRAS and BRAF mutations in Iranian colorectal cancer patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Background: Mutations in the EGFR signaling pathway play an important role in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). Mutations in these genes, like KRAS and BRAF, affect the treatment strategies and associated with poor prognosis and relative resistance to anti-EGFR therapies. Our aim was to conduct a systematic and meta-analysis on all studies that have been conducted on the prevalence of...

بررسی جهش در اگزون7 ژن اکسین2 در سرطان کولورکتال (مطالعات آزمایشگاهی و بیوانفورماتیکی)

Background & Aims: Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in Iran. Wnt pathway changes are commonly reported in this type of cancer. Some of the important activities of this pathway are the role of carcinogenicity, cellular proliferation, cell migration, and so on. Axin2 acts as a negative regulator in the Wnt / TCF signaling pathway and helps in the formation of the beta-catenin des...
