1. Cyclin E overexpression and associated events in human breast cancer
Abstract : Unrestrained proliferation is a hallmark of cancer and genetic defects within G1/S-phase regulation and the pRb pathway occur frequently. Proliferation control can be circumvented either by excess cyclin D1 or cyclin E, alterations that can define two alternative tumour biologic pathways in breast cancer. READ MORE

2. Transcriptional Regulation by Hypoxia-Inducible Factors in Tumor Cells
Abstract : Cancer is a major cause of human morbidity and mortality, and the risk of developing cancer is about one in three life times. Neuroblastoma is the most common extra-cranial solid tumor among children and arises from early sympathetic nervous system (SNS) cells arrested in their development. READ MORE

3. Transcriptional networks in neuroblastoma and breast cancer
Abstract : Transcription factors of the basic Helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of proteins are important regulators of cellular processes such as proliferation and differentiation. Many cancer diseases show a block in differentiation, and aberrant regulation of several bHLH factors have been implicated in the development of different malignancies. READ MORE

4. Novel Regulators of the TGF-β Signaling Pathway
Abstract : The transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily consists of related multifunctional cytokines, which include TGF-βs, activins, and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and coordinate several biological responses in diverse cell types. The biological activity of TGF-β members is executed by transmembrane serine/threonine kinase receptors and intracellular Smad proteins. READ MORE

5. Epigenetic Regulation of Replication Timing and Signal Transduction
Abstract : Upon fertilization the paternal and maternal genomes unite, giving rise to the embryo, with its unique genetic code. All cells in the human body are derived from the fertilized ovum: hence they all contain (with a few exceptions) the same genetic composition. READ MORE
