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 ...
Roles of GSK-3 and microRNAs on epithelial mesenchymal transition and cancer stem cells
(2017-02)
Various signaling pathways exert critical roles in the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cancer stem cells (CSCs). The Wnt/beta-catenin, PI3K/PTEN/ Akt/mTORC, Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK, hedgehog (Hh), Notch and TP53 ...
Targeting signaling and apoptotic pathways involved in chemotherapeutic drug-resistance of hematopoietic cells
(2017-08-24)
A critical problem in leukemia as well as other cancer therapies is the development of chemotherapeutic drug-resistance. We have developed models of hematopoietic drug resistance that are based on expression of dominant-negative ...
