A signaling visualization toolkit to support rational design of combination therapies and biomarker discovery: SiViT [PDF]
Targeted cancer therapy aims to disrupt aberrant cellular signalling pathways. Biomarkers are surrogates of pathway state, but there is limited success in translating candidate biomarkers to clinical practice due to the intrinsic complexity of pathway ...

Neural signaling modulates metabolism of gastric cancer
Summary: Tumors comprise cancer cells and the associated stromal and immune/inflammatory cells, i.e., tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, we identify a metabolic signature of human and mouse model of gastric cancer and show that vagotomy in the mouse ...

The Interplay among PINK1/PARKIN/Dj-1 Network during Mitochondrial Quality Control in Cancer Biology: Protein Interaction Analysis [PDF]
PARKIN (E3 ubiquitin ligase PARK2), PINK1 (PTEN induced kinase 1) and DJ-1 (PARK7) are proteins involved in autosomal recessive parkinsonism, and carcinogenic processes.

Edgetic perturbation models of human inherited disorders
Cellular functions are mediated through complex systems of macromolecules and metabolites linked through biochemical and physical interactions, represented in interactome models as ‘nodes’ and ‘edges’, respectively.

A generalized non-linear model predicting efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy in HER2+ breast cancer
Summary: Neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) is currently recommended to patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive breast cancer (HER2+ BC) that typically exhibit a poor prognosis.

Systems biology analysis of drivers underlying hallmarks of cancer cell metabolism. [PDF]
Malignant transformation is often accompanied by significant metabolic changes. To identify drivers underlying these changes, we calculated metabolic flux states for the NCI60 cell line collection and correlated the variance between metabolic states of ...

Cyclin-dependent kinases as drug targets for cell growth and proliferation disorders. A role for systems biology approach in drug development. Part II - CDKs as drug targets in hypertrophic cell growth. Modelling of drugs targeting CDKs [PDF]
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are key regulators of cell growth and proliferation. Impaired regulation of their activity leads to various diseases such as cancer and heart hypertrophy.
