Proteomic profiling of oleamide-mediated polarization in a primary human monocyte-derived tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) model: a functional analysis [PDF]
Background Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play a critical function in the development of tumors and are associated with protumor M2 phenotypes. Shifting TAMs towards antitumor M1 phenotypes holds promise for tumor immunotherapy.

Physiological roles of the oncoprotein c-Myc in mouse mammary gland development [PDF]
c-Myc, a transcription factor that affects a large number of target genes, is one of the most frequently deregulated oncoproteins in human cancer. The wide-ranging biological functions of c-Myc include regulation of the cell cycle, differentiation ...

Molecular cloning and analysis of Myc modulator 1 (Mm-1) from Bufo gargarizans (Amphibia: Anura)
The protein of Myc modulator 1 (Mm-1) has been reported to repress the transcriptional activity of the proto-oncogene c-Myc in humans. Moreover, it was shown to be the subunit 5 of human prefoldin (PFD).

MYC is a metastasis gene for non-small-cell lung cancer. [PDF]
Metastasis is a process by which cancer cells learn to form satellite tumors in distant organs and represents the principle cause of death of patients with solid tumors. NSCLC is the most lethal human cancer due to its high rate of metastasis.

JNK and ERK8 as downstream effectors of receptor tyrosine kinases [PDF]
MAP kinases are a super-family of serine-threonine protein kinases expressed in all eukaryotic cells. In mammals, there are many MAP kinases with different biological functions, grouped in distinctly regulated groups, ERK1/2 (extracellular signal related
