Large-animal cancer models are needed to advance the development of innovative and clinically applicable tumor diagnostic, therapeutic, and monitoring technologies. We developed a genetically modified porcine model of cancer based on a TP53...
Divide and rule: The role of ubiquitination in inactivation of the ERK5-MAPK cascade [0.03%]

Recently, we revealed that ubiquitination of MEKK2 and MEKK3 by inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) directly disrupts MEK5/ERK5 interaction and subsequently attenuates ERK5 activation. In addition, loss of XIAP promotes human myogenic di...

Cellular senescence is classically considered a tumor suppressive mechanism. In addition to having stably exited the cell cycle, senescent cells secrete inflammatory factors. We recently demonstrated that senescence correlates with accelera...

Downregulation of G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) in endothelial cells has recently been identified as a relevant event in the tumoral angiogenic switch. Based on the effects of altering GRK2 dosage in cell and animal models, thi...
Triple threat treatment: Exploiting the dependence receptor properties of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 against melanoma [0.03%]
三管齐下的治疗方法:利用代谢型谷氨酸受体1对抗黑色素瘤的依赖性受体属性

Melanoma cells that express metabotropic glutamate 1 (mGlu1) receptors depend on glutamate for their survival and proliferation. The dependence receptor properties of mGlu1 allow us to propose and justify three promising approaches for mela...

Antiangiogenic agents targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) pathway play an important role in current cancer treatment modalities but are limited by alternative angiogenesis mechanisms. Recent studies suggest that enhan...

Although p53 defines cellular responses to cancer treatment it is not clear how p53 can be used to control cell fate outcome. Data demonstrate that so-called p53 does not exist as a single protein, but is in fact a group of p53 protein isof...
Targeting tumor cell metabolism via the mevalonate pathway: Two hits are better than one [0.03%]

Statins are promising anticancer agents that target the mevalonate pathway. Tumor cells are sensitive to depletion of mevalonate-derived products but this activity triggers a homeostatic feedback loop that blunts statin efficacy. We showed ...

CSL362 is a humanized interleukin-3 (IL-3)-neutralizing monoclonal antibody with enhanced effector function that binds the α subunit of the IL-3 receptor (IL3Rα). The crystal structure of an IL3Rα:CSL362 complex shows that IL3Rα adopts ...

Asymmetric cell division (ACD) is a characteristic of cancer stem cells, which exhibit high malignant potential. However, the cellular mechanisms that regulate symmetric (self-renewal) and asymmetric cell divisions are mostly unknown. Using...
