The Nefarious Nexus of Noncoding RNAs in Cancer [PDF]
The past decade has witnessed enormous progress, which has seen the noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) turn from the so called dark matter RNA to critical functional molecules, influencing most physiological processes in development and disease contexts.

Protein tyrosine kinases (TKs) are a family of enzymes that catalyze the phosphorylation of proteins at tyrosine residues. TKs play key roles in controlling cell growth and many other functions by modulating the status of tyrosine phosphorylation of ...

DRP1 Promotes BRAFV600E-Driven Tumor Progression and Metabolic Reprogramming in Colorectal Cancer
BackgroundMitochondria are highly dynamic organelles which remain in a continuous state of fission/ fusion dynamics to meet the metabolic needs of a cell. However, this fission/fusion dynamism has been reported to be dysregulated in most cancers.

Oncogenic fusion proteins adopt the insulin-like growth factor signaling pathway [PDF]
The insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF1R) has been identified as a potent anti-apoptotic, pro-survival tyrosine kinase-containing receptor. Overexpression of the IGF1R gene constitutes a typical feature of most human cancers. Consistent with these biological roles, cells expressing high levels of IGF1R are expected not to die, a quintessential ...

About 15% of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (iCCAs) express fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) fusion proteins (FFs), usually alongside mutational inactivation of TP53, CDKN2A or BAP1. In FFs, FGFR2 residues 1-768 fuse to sequences encoded by a diverse array of partner genes (>60) causing oncogenic FF activation. While FGFR-specific tyrosine

Protein transduction: A novel tool for tissue regeneration [PDF]
Tissue regeneration in humans is limited and excludes vitals organs like heart and brain. Transformation experiments with oncogenes like T antigen have shown that retrodifferentiation of the respective cells is possible but hard to control. To bypass the

We report a patient with T-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma and a t(7;8)(q22;p11). CUX1 was identified as the fusion partner of FGFR1 by fluorescence in situ hybridization and 5′ RACE-PCR.

Oncogenic fusion protein FGFR2-PPHLN1: Requirements for biological activation, and efficacy of inhibitors [PDF]
Chromosomal translocations such as t(10;12)(q26,q12) are associated with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, a universally fatal category of liver cancer. This translocation creates the oncogenic fusion protein of Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2 joined to Periphilin 1.

Objective: Oncogenic echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4 (EML4)-anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) (EML4-ALK) fusion proteins found in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) are constitutively phosphorylated and activated by dimerization via the ...

Potential roles of synaptotagmin family members in cancers: Recent advances and prospects
With the continuous development of bioinformatics and public database, more and more genes that play a role in cancers have been discovered. Synaptotagmins (SYTs) are abundant, evolutionarily conserved integral membrane proteins composed of a short N ...
