Coffee drinking and cancer risk: an umbrella review of meta-analyses of observational studies
BMC Cancer, 2020 Background Epidemiological studies on the association between coffee intake and cancer risk have yielded inconsistent results. To summarize and appraise the quality of the current evidence, we conducted an umbrella review of existing findings from meta ...

RAS signalling through PI3-Kinase controls cell migration via modulation of Reelin expression
Nature Communications, 2016 Ras signalling through PI3K kinase has an important role in tumour initiation and progression. Here, the authors show that the interaction of Ras with PI3-Kinase p110α and the subsequent activation of Rac-GTPase impairs cell -cell interaction by blocking

Mutations and amplification of oncogenes in endometrial cancer [PDF]
, 1999 Alterations in oncogenes are critical steps in the development of endometrial cancer. To investigate the potential clinical relevance of the amplification of the oncogenes c-erbB2, c-myc, and int-2 and the mutation of K-ras in endometrial cancer, 112 ...

DNA topoisomerases participate in fragility of the oncogene RET [PDF]
, 2013 Fragile site breakage was previously shown to result in rearrangement of the RET oncogene, resembling the rearrangements found in thyroid cancer. Common fragile sites are specific regions of the genome with a high susceptibility to DNA breakage under ...

Broad and thematic remodeling of the surfaceome and glycoproteome on isogenic cells transformed with driving proliferative oncogenes. [PDF]
, 2020 The cell surface proteome, the surfaceome, is the interface for engaging the extracellular space in normal and cancer cells. Here we apply quantitative proteomics of N-linked glycoproteins to reveal how a collection of some 700 surface proteins is ...

A Variant in a MicroRNA complementary site in the 3' UTR of the KIT oncogene increases risk of acral melanoma. [PDF]
, 2011 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small ∼22nt single stranded RNAs that negatively regulate protein expression by binding to partially complementary sequences in the 3' untranslated region (3' UTRs) of target gene messenger RNAs (mRNA).
