The contradictions of the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor [PDF]
Oncogene, 2000 In recent years, the type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) has emerged as a receptor that plays a very important role in the growth of cells, both in vivo and in vitro. The ability of the IGF-IR to induce mitogenesis and to promote survival of cells against a variety of apoptotic agents is well documented.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

IGF-I receptor phosphorylation is impaired in cathepsin X-deficient prostate cancer cells [PDF]
, 2012 The cysteine-type peptidase cathepsin X is highly upregulated in several cancers and presumably promotes tumor invasion through bypassing cellular senescence. Here, we present first evidence that the underlying mechanism may involve the regulation of the
