Endothelin-1 Activates MAPKs and Modulates Cell Cycle Proteins in OKP Cells
The signaling mechanisms through which endothelin (ET)-1 induces hyperplasia of the renal tubular epithelium are largely unknown. Methods: These mechanisms were explored using ETB-overexpressing opossum kidney (OKP) cells as a model system. Results: ET-1

BPTF promotes tumor growth and predicts poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinomas. [PDF]
BPTF, a subunit of NURF, is well known to be involved in the development of eukaryotic cell, but little is known about its roles in cancers, especially in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

HPV infection and immunochemical detection of cell-cycle markers in verrucous carcinoma of the penis [PDF]
Penile verrucous carcinoma is a rare disease and little is known of its aetiology or pathogenesis. In this study we examined cell-cycle proteins expression and correlation with human papillomavirus infection in a series of 15 pure penile verrucous ...

Cell cycle: Checkpoint proteins and kinetochores [PDF]
Vertebrate homologs of yeast spindle assembly checkpoint proteins are localized to kinetochores and may act as a sensor for proper chromosome attachment to the mitotic spindle.

Regrowth resistance: low-level platinum resistance mediated by rapid recovery from platinum-induced cell-cycle arrest [PDF]
The H69CIS200 and H69OX400 cell lines are novel models of low-level platinum drug resistance developed from H69 human small cell lung cancer cells with eight 4-day treatments of 200 ng/ml cisplatin or 400 ng/ml oxaliplatin respectively. A recovery period

Axitinib induces senescence-associated cell death and necrosis in glioma cell lines: The proteasome inhibitor, bortezomib, potentiates axitinib-induced cytotoxicity in a p21(Waf/Cip1) dependent manner. [PDF]
Glioblastoma is associated with a poor overall survival despite new treatment advances. Antiangiogenic strategies targeting VEGF based on tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are currently undergoing extensive research for the treatment of glioma.

Pocket proteins and cell cycle control [PDF]
The retinoblastoma protein (pRB) and the pRB-related p107 and p130 comprise the 'pocket protein' family of cell cycle regulators. These proteins are best known for their roles in restraining the G1-S transition through the regulation of E2F-responsive genes.
