1. Notch Signaling in Human Neuroblastoma Cells
Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma is a childhood tumor derived from the sympathetic nervous system (SNS). It is believed that the tumors arise from cells halted in their differentiation and due to their immature phenotype; they express proteins normally only detected during embryogenesis. One such protein is Hash-1, which is required for formation of the SNS. LÄS MER
2. Diversification of TGF-β Signaling in Homeostasis and Disease
Sammanfattning : With the dawn of metazoans, the ability of cells to communicate with each other became of paramount importance in maintaining tissue homeostasis. The transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling pathway, which plays important roles during embryogenesis and in the adult organism, signals via a heterodimeric receptor complex consisting of two type II and two type I receptors.

3. Notch Signaling in Neuroblastoma and Renal Cell Carcinoma
Sammanfattning : The Notch signaling pathway governs cell functions essential for normal development and organogenesis. Aberrant Notch signaling has been implicated in tumorigenesis by perturbing control of proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, migration and angiogenesis. LÄS MER
4. Heparan sulfate dependent cell signaling and associated pathophysiology : Implications in tumorigenesis and embryogenesis
Sammanfattning : Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) consist of a protein core to which several linear, negatively charged heparan sulfate (HS) chains are covalently attached. HSPGs are expressed on the cell surface and in the extra-cellular matrix (ECM) where they have diverse biological functions, for example co-receptor functions. LÄS MER
5. Notch signaling requiem : orchestral role of notch signaling in cancer and developmental disease
Sammanfattning : Notch signaling is an evolutionary conserved contact-dependent cell-cell communication pathway. This “contact” spans from hydra to fruit flies to human; orchestrating development, homeostasis and cancer, thus the Requiem, a song of life and death. LÄS MER
