Signaling through CD44 affects cell cycle progression and c-Jun expression in acute myeloid leukemia cells [PDF]
We present here the first evidence linking CD44 signaling to c-Jun expression and cell cycle progression in myeloid cell line models. CD44 ligation with the anti-CD44 monoclonal antibodies have been shown to induce differentiation and inhibit the ...

C-terminal binding proteins: Emerging roles in cell survival and tumorigenesis [PDF]
Within a cell, the levels and activity of multiple pro- and anti-apoptotic molecules act in concert to regulate commitment to apoptosis. Whilst the balance between survival and death can be tipped by the effects of single molecules, cellular apoptosis ...

The role of oncogenic Cbl mutants in Kit signaling and myeloid transformation [PDF]
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematopoietic cell disorder characterized by a block in differentiation and increased proliferation and survival of malignant blasts. Expansion of the malignant cell clone effects the normal production of blood cells and

Metabolic analysis of the effects of high expression levels of bcl-2/xl proto-oncogenes on carbohydrate metabolism [PDF]
The Bcl-2 proto-oncogene expression plays an essential role in the regulation of mitochondrial function and fuel metabolism. Mitochondrial enzymes and anti-apoptotic proteins can participate to cross-regulation processes between the programmed cell death

Exploring downstream pathways of aberrantly activated kinases for targeted leukemia therapy [PDF]
Genetic alterations resulting in uncontrolled protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) activity are frequently found in leukemia and in human solid cancers. Although the development of small molecule kinase inhibitors has revolutionized therapy for PTKinduced ...

Life or cell death: identifying c-Myc regulated genes in two distinct tissues [PDF]
The c-myc oncogene is over-expressed or deregulated in many human cancers. c-myc encodes a transcription factor, the oncoprotein c-Myc (Myc), which acts as a master regulator of genes involved in such diverse cellular processes as replication and growth,

Survival mechanisms in B lymphoid malignancies and associated therapies [PDF]
PhDThe apoptotic pathway plays critical roles in regulating lymphocyte survival throughout B cell development, maturation and differentiation. The whole process involves clonal expansion. In the normal B lymphocyte population the majority of cells and

The human dbl-proto-oncogene product is a cytoplasmic phosphoprotein which is associated with the cytoskeletal matrix [PDF]
The translational product of the dbl oncogene is a 66 kDa (p66) protein with no apparent sequence similarity to any of the known oncogene products, whereas the human dbl proto-oncogene encodes a translational product of 115 kDa (p115).

Deciphering c-MYC-regulated genes in two distinct tissues [PDF]
Background: The transcription factor MYC is a critical regulator of diverse cellular processes, including both replication and apoptosis. Differences in MYC-regulated gene expression responsible for such opposing outcomes in vivo remain obscure.
