The common rejection module in chronic rejection post lung transplantation. [PDF]
RATIONALE:Recent studies suggest that similar injury mechanisms are in place across different solid organ transplants, resulting in the identification of a common rejection module (CRM), consisting of 11 genes that are overexpressed during acute and, to ...

K-Ras mediated murine epidermal tumorigenesis Is dependent upon and associated with elevated Rac1 activity [PDF]
A common goal for potential cancer therapies is the identification of differences in protein expression or activity that would allow for the selective targeting of tumor vs. normal cells. The Ras proto-oncogene family (K-Ras, H-Ras and N-Ras) are amongst

Ras-induced EpCAM and several other membrane proteins.
A. Microarray data (GSE12777) for 51 breast cancer cell line was analyzed using Gene-E software. E-cadherin correlated 121 genes are enriched in first step followed by EpCAM close (correlated). These genes are presented in normal and Ras-transduced cells

A genome-wide Drosophila epithelial tumorigenesis screen identifies Tetraspanin 29Fb as an evolutionarily conserved suppressor of Ras-driven cancer. [PDF]
Oncogenic mutations in the small GTPase Ras contribute to ~30% of human cancers. However, Ras mutations alone are insufficient for tumorigenesis, therefore it is paramount to identify cooperating cancer-relevant signaling pathways.

Background The Ras pathway genes KRAS, BRAF, or ERBBs have somatic mutations in ~ 60% of human colorectal carcinomas. At present, it is unknown whether the remaining cases lack mutations activating the Ras pathway or whether they have acquired mutations ...

The RASopathies: from pathogenetics to therapeutics
The RASopathies are a group of disorders caused by a germline mutation in one of the genes encoding a component of the RAS/MAPK pathway. These disorders, including neurofibromatosis type 1, Noonan syndrome, cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome, Costello ...

Ras-dva small GTPases lost during evolution of amniotes regulate regeneration in anamniotes
In contrast to amniotes (reptiles, birds and mammals), anamniotes (fishes and amphibians) can effectively regenerate body appendages such as fins, limbs and tails. Why such a useful capability was progressively lost in amniotes remains unknown.
