    Abstract : Glioblastoma is a most aggressive brain tumor with a median overall survival of less than two years. The current treatment is surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. However, glioblastoma is difficult to treat and recurs some time after treatment. READ MORE

  3. 3. A multi-omics approach to uncover estrogen receptor (ER) and activator protein 1 (AP-1) signaling networks in breast cancer

    Author : Huan He; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Estrogen receptor (ER) binds to DNA indirectly through other transcription factors (e.g. AP-1) to modulate gene expression, which is a tethering mechanism. The ER/AP-1 crosstalk plays an important role in tamoxifen therapy resistance. READ MORE
