A cyclin-dependent kinases Cdk4 and Cdk6 are attributed a crucial role in the initiation of cell cycle in response to mitogenic stimuli. They are, therefore, be targets toward which the biomedical sciences and pharmaceutical industry directed its efforts...
This paper identifies a group of genes specifically involved in breast cancer metastasis to lung, a finding that has been made possible by combining studies of selected cell lines in vivo, transcriptomics, functional verification and subsequent clinical...
The loss of cell polarity and cancer are two processes are related, although there is no direct evidence to explain this correlation. In stem cells, loss of cell polarity and consequently, the alteration of the division process could produce cells unable...
The infectivity of a virus is determined by its ability to avoid the whole machinery of the host cell defense presented. Vaccinia virus (orthopoxvirus family of which belongs to the virus which causes smallpox) exhibits a surprising: it is able...
