21. Novel human in vitro systems for studies of drug inducted hepatotoxicity
Abstract : Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a major human health concern, estimated to account for about half of all cases of acute liver failure in the general population. DILI also represents a significant problem in drug discovery, being one of the most common reasons for regulatory actions, including boxed warnings, restricted marketing and withdrawals of marketed drugs.

22. Roles of Myc and Mad in cell cycle and apoptosis
Abstract : The Myc network proteins are key mediators in regulation of cell growth, differentiation and apoptosis. They are basic region hehx-loop-helix/leucine zipper (bHLH/Zip) transcription factors that require hetero-dimerization with Max for specific DNA binding Mad family members are expressed primarily in differentiated tissues where they recruit histone deacetylase complexes via the mSin3 interaction domain (SID) to repress transcription of target genes and prevent cell growth In contrast, members of the Myc family activate target gene transcription by recruitment of histone acetyltransferases to their transcriptional activation domain (TAD), inducing proliferation and S phase entry.

23. Effects of interferon on cellular proliferation and apoptosis
Abstract : Interferon (IFN) therapy is today a well-established treatment in many diseases, including various malignancies. How IFN exerts antitumor activity is not known, but several mechanisms have been suggested. READ MORE

24. Cell cycle control in G1 : restriction points for growth factors and anchorage dependence
Abstract : Background: The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of four well-defined phases. During the S phase DNA is replicated and during the M phase the chromosomes are segregated to daughter cells. The time gap between completion of M phase and entry into S phase is called G1. The time gap between S phase and mitosis is called G2. READ MORE

25. Regulation of G2 phase and long-term consequences of DNA damage
Abstract : Cell proliferation requires the accurate replication of DNA and equal segregation of replicated genes, important for maintaining the integrity of newly formed cells. At the centre of this process is a series of coordinated events termed ‘the cell cycle’, which ensures cell proliferation proceeds with high fidelity. READ MORE
