Comparative study of the evolution of human cancer gene duplications across fish [PDF]
Comparative studies of cancer-related genes allow us to gain novel information about the evolution and function of these genes, but also to understand cancer as a driving force in biological systems and species life histories. So far, comparative studies of cancer genes have focused on mammals.

DNA topoisomerases participate in fragility of the oncogene RET [PDF]
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 ...

Oncogene addiction in gliomas: Implications for molecular targeted therapy [PDF]
Oncogene addiction is a phenomenon that the survival of cancer cells depends on an activated oncogene or inactivation of tumor suppressor gene, and is regarded as the 'Achilles heel' of the successful molecular targeted therapies in cancer.

Identification of novel mutational drivers reveals oncogene dependencies in multiple myeloma.
Understanding the profile of oncogene and tumor suppressor gene mutations with their interactions and impact on the prognosis of multiple myeloma (MM) can improve the definition of disease subsets and identify pathways important in disease pathobiology ...

Insulator dysfunction and oncogene activation in IDH mutant gliomas
Gain-of-function IDH mutations are initiating events that define major clinical and prognostic classes of gliomas. Mutant IDH protein produces a new onco-metabolite, 2-hydroxyglutarate, which interferes with iron-dependent hydroxylases, including the TET

Primary extranodal diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma: Molecular features, treatment, and prognosis
One‐third of DLBCL arises from extranodal organs and is challenging to manage. Molecular features are critical to elucidate the differences in clinical features, predict the disease prognosis, and improve effective targeted therapeutic strategies. Abstract Diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma and ...

Targeting mTOR for cancer therapy
Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a protein kinase regulating cell growth, survival, metabolism, and immunity. mTOR is usually assembled into several complexes such as mTOR complex 1/2 (mTORC1/2).

Resistance is futile: overcoming resistance to targeted therapies in lung adenocarcinoma. [PDF]
The advent of genomics has led to the identification of specific "driver" mutations in oncogenic kinases, and the development of targeted small molecule inhibitors to block their tumor-driving functions.

Structural basis for the assembly of the Ragulator-Rag GTPase complex
mTORC1 activity is controlled through Rag GTPases, which are anchored to the lysosome through the Ragulator. Here, the authors give molecular insights into Ragulator-Rag GTPase assembly and present the crystal structures of the Ragulator alone and in ...
