The Role of “Adult‐Onset” Cancer Predisposition Genes in Pediatric Cancer: A Comprehensive Review
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Current literature estimates that 10% of pediatric cancers are caused by pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) germline variants in cancer predisposition genes (CPGs). Variants in CPGs thought to increase cancer risk exclusively during adulthood are referred to as “adult‐onset” CPGs (aoCPGs).

Mutation Profile of Well-Differentiated Thyroid Cancer in Asians [PDF]
Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2015 Recent advances in molecular diagnostics have led to significant insights into the genetic basis of thyroid tumorigenesis. Among the mutations commonly seen in thyroid cancers, the vast majority are associated with the mitogen-activated protein kinase ...

Protein Truncation Is Required for the Activation of the c-myb Proto-Oncogene [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Biology, 1991 The protein product of the v-myb oncogene of avian myeloblastosis virus, v-Myb, differs from its normal cellular counterpart, c-Myb, by (i) expression under the control of a strong viral long terminal repeat, (ii) truncation of both its amino and carboxyl termini, (iii) replacement of these termini by virally encoded residues, and (iv) substitution of ...

Immune check point inhibitors in BRAF mutated metastatic colorectal cancer: A review
International Journal of Gastrointestinal InterventionMetastatic colorectal cancers with BRAF mutation are a class of tumors that have a poor prognosis compared to wild type patients. Even if this group has found some hope in targeted therapy with multi-targeted blockade of the mitogen-activated protein ...

Synthesis of proto-oncogene proteins and cyclins depends on intact microfilaments
European Journal of Cell Biology, 1998 It is well established that microfilament disintegration by cytochalasin D (CD) as well as latrunculin (LAT)-A and LAT-B causes an inhibition of S phase entry of various nontransformed cell lines. Our experiments extended these observations to human embryonal diploid fibroblasts (Wi-38). To investigate the question whether this stop of DNA synthesis is

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
