WNT signalling in prostate cancer [PDF]
Genome sequencing and gene expression analyses of prostate tumours have highlighted the potential importance of genetic and epigenetic changes observed in WNT signalling pathway components in prostate tumours-particularly in the development of castration-

Utilizing Protein Structure to Identify Non-Random Somatic Mutations [PDF]
Motivation: Human cancer is caused by the accumulation of somatic mutations in tumor suppressors and oncogenes within the genome. In the case of oncogenes, recent theory suggests that there are only a few key "driver" mutations responsible for ...

Histological and immunohistochemical findings in recurrent nevi [PDF]
Background Recurrent nevi (RN) arise from the incomplete removal of a benign melanocytic lesion. They may present with clinical and dermoscopic characteristics similar to melanomas and are a potential mimic of neoplasia.

The adaptor protein CRK is a pro-apoptotic transducer of endoplasmic reticulum stress. [PDF]
Excessive demands on the protein-folding capacity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) cause irremediable ER stress and contribute to cell loss in a number of cell degenerative diseases, including type 2 diabetes and neurodegeneration.

Significance of KRAS/PAK1/Crk pathway in non-small cell lung cancer oncogenesis. [PDF]
BackgroundKey effector(s) of mutated KRAS in lung cancer progression and metastasis are unknown. Here we investigated the role of PAK1/Crk axis in transduction of the oncogenic KRAS signal in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).MethodsWe used NSCLC ...

RNF4-Dependent Oncogene Activation by Protein Stabilization [PDF]
Ubiquitylation regulates signaling pathways critical for cancer development and, in many cases, targets proteins for degradation. Here, we report that ubiquitylation by RNF4 stabilizes otherwise short-lived oncogenic transcription factors, including β-catenin, Myc, c-Jun, and the Notch intracellular-domain (N-ICD) protein.

Localization of the Major NF-κB-activating Site and the Sole TRAF3 Binding Site of LMP-1 Defines Two Distinct Signaling Motifs [PDF]
The TRAF3 molecule interacts with the cytoplasmic carboxyl terminus (COOH terminus) of the Epstein-Barr virus-encoded oncogene LMP-1. NF-κB activation is a downstream signaling event of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor (TRAF) molecules in
