Healthy CD4+ T lymphocytes are not affected by targeted therapies against the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(2016-08-01)
An attractive molecular target for novel anti-cancer therapies is the
phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)
pathway which is commonly deregulated in many types of cancer. Nevertheless, ...
Computational identification of microRNAs associated to both epithelial to mesenchymal transition and NGAL/MMP-9 pathways in bladder cancer
(2016-11-08)
Bladder cancer is one of the leading cancer of the urinary tract. It is often diagnosed at advanced stage of the disease. To date, no specific and effective early detection biomarkers are available. Cancer development and ...
Computational Modeling of PI3K/AKT and MAPK Signaling Pathways in Melanoma Cancer
(2016-03-25)
Background
Malignant melanoma is an aggressive tumor of the skin and seems to be resistant to current therapeutic approaches. Melanocytic transformation is thought to occur by sequential accu- mulation of genetic and ...
