A yeast gene encoding a protein homologous to the human c-has/bas proto-oncogene product [PDF]
Organisms amenable to easy genetic analysis should prove helpful in assessing the function of at least those proto-oncogene products which are highly conserved in different eukaryotic cells.

Proto-oncogene c-jun expression is induced by AML1-ETO in a JNK dependent manner:possible role in the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia [PDF]
Overexpression of proto-oncogene c-jun and constitutive activation of the Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway have been implicated in the leukemic transformation process.

Pituitary tumor-transforming gene expression is a prognostic marker for tumor recurrence in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck [PDF]
Background The proto-oncogene pituitary tumor-transforming gene (PTTG) has been shown to be abundantly overexpressed in a large variety of neoplasms likely promoting neo-vascularization and tumor invasiveness.

Bim and Bmf synergize to induce apoptosis in Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection [PDF]
: Bcl-2 family proteins including the pro-apoptotic BH3-only proteins are central regulators of apoptotic cell death. Here we show by a focused siRNA miniscreen that the synergistic action of the BH3-only proteins Bim and Bmf is required for apoptosis ...

The ansamycin antibiotic, rifamycin SV, inhibits BCL6 transcriptional repression and forms a complex with the BCL6-BTB/POZ domain [PDF]
BCL6 is a transcriptional repressor that is over-expressed due to chromosomal translocations, or other abnormalities, in ~40% of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Molecular and functional characterization of the interaction between c-Myc and the MCM helicase [PDF]
The Myc genes (c-myc, n-myc, l-myc, s-myc) encode a family of protein that share structural an biological features and are conserved across all Metazoans.

The effect of oxidation on the stability of G-quadruplex DNA : implications for oncogene expression [PDF]
G-quadruplexes (G4-DNA) are a class of secondary structures formed from Guanine rich sequences. In recent years these structures have been implicated in both telomere maintenance and oncogene expression, and have been shown to be abundant in upstream ...

The synergistic interaction between CD20 monoclonal antibodies and Histone Deacetylase inhibitors in B cell Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma [PDF]
Recent improvements in molecular sub typing of Non Hodgkin’s lymphomashave resulted in targeted therapies becoming incorporated into treatmentparadigms.

Oligonucleotides suppress PKB/Akt and act as superinductors of apoptosis in human keratinocytes [PDF]
DNA oligonucleotides (ODN) applied to an organism are known to modulate the innate and adaptive immune system. Previous studies showed that a CpG-containing ODN (CpG-1-PTO) and interestingly, also a non-CpG-containing ODN (nCpG- 5-PTO) suppress ...
