Autophagy and tumorigenesis [PDF]
Autophagy is a catabolic process that captures cellular waste and degrades them in the lysosome. The main functions of autophagy are quality control of cytosolic proteins and organelles, and intracellular recycling of nutrients in order to maintain cellular homeostasis.

Autophagy and Tumorigenesis [PDF]
Autophagy, a catabolic process involved in the sequestration and lysosomal degradation of cytoplasmic contents, is crucial for cellular homeostasis. The current literature supports that autophagy plays diverse roles in the development, maintenance, and progression of tumors.

Autophagy and tumorigenesis [PDF]
Autophagy, or cellular self‐digestion, is activated in cancer cells in response to multiple stresses and has been demonstrated to promote tumor cell survival and drug resistance. Nonetheless, genetic evidence supports that autophagy functions as a tumor suppressor mechanism.

Aneuploidy and tumorigenesis [PDF]
Aneuploidy is a prominent phenotype of cancer. It refers to deviations from the normal number of chromosomes in a cell, as a result of whole-chromosome loss or gain. In most cases, aneuploidy is caused by mitotic errors due to defects in the mechanisms that have evolved to ensure faithful chromosome segregation, such as the spindle assembly checkpoint (

mTORC2 signaling drives the development and progression of pancreatic cancer [PDF]
mTOR signaling controls several critical cellular functions and is deregulated in many cancers, including pancreatic cancer. To date, most efforts have focused on inhibiting the mTORC1 complex.

An important role for Myb-MuvB and its target gene KIF23 in a mouse model of lung adenocarcinoma [PDF]
The conserved Myb-MuvB (MMB) multiprotein complex has an important role in transcriptional activation of mitotic genes. MMB target genes are overexpressed in several different cancer types and their elevated expression is associated with an advanced ...

Cytoneme-mediated signaling essential for tumorigenesis. [PDF]
Communication between neoplastic cells and cells of their microenvironment is critical to cancer progression. To investigate the role of cytoneme-mediated signaling as a mechanism for distributing growth factor signaling proteins between tumor and tumor ...

The dynamics of gene expression changes in a mouse model of oral tumorigenesis may help refine prevention and treatment strategies in patients with oral cancer. [PDF]
A better understanding of the dynamics of molecular changes occurring during the early stages of oral tumorigenesis may help refine prevention and treatment strategies.

A dominant-negative FGF1 mutant (the R50E mutant) suppresses tumorigenesis and angiogenesis. [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factor-1 (FGF1) and FGF2 play a critical role in angiogenesis, a formation of new blood vessels from existing blood vessels. Integrins are critically involved in FGF signaling through crosstalk. We previously reported that FGF1 directly

Targets of Raf in tumorigenesis [PDF]
Some 25 years ago, Raf was discovered as the transforming principle shared by a murine sarcoma and an avian carcinoma virus. Thus, Raf and tumorigenesis have been connected from the very beginning. Ten years later, the work of many groups instated Raf as the link between Ras, the oncogene most frequently mutated in human cancers, and the mitogen ...
