(East Carolina University, 2007-06)
Accumulating evidence suggests that cancer can be envisioned as a "signaling disease", in which alterations in the cellular genome affect the expression and/or function of oncogenes and tumour suppressor genes. This ...
Roles of the RAF/MEK/ERK Pathway in Cell Growth, Malignant Transformation and Drug Resistance
(East Carolina University, 2007-08)
Growth factors and mitogens use the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK signaling cascade to transmit signals from their receptors to regulate gene expression and prevent apoptosis. Some components of these pathways are mutated or aberrantly ...
