SGLT1 is required for the survival of triple-negative breast cancer cells via potentiation of EGFR activity.
(2019-09)
Sodium/glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT1), an essential active glucose transport protein that helps maintain high intracellular glucose levels, was previously shown to interact with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR); ...
Integration of RNAi and Small Molecule Screens to Identify Targets for Drug Development.
(2019-01)
Cellular models for siRNA and small molecule high-throughput screening have been widely used in the last decade to identify targets for drug discovery. As an example, we present a twofold readout approach based on cell ...
In Vivo Characterization of 4 68Ga-Labeled Multimeric RGD Peptides to Image αvβ3 Integrin Expression in 2 Human Tumor Xenograft Mouse Models.
(2018-08)
αvβ3 integrins play an important role in angiogenesis and cell migration in cancer and are highly expressed on the activated endothelial cells of newly formed blood vessels. Here, we compare the targeting characteristics ...
SHOC2 phosphatase-dependent RAF dimerization mediates resistance to MEK inhibition in RAS-mutant cancers.
(2019-06-10)
Targeted inhibition of the ERK-MAPK pathway, upregulated in a majority of human cancers, has been hindered in the clinic by drug resistance and toxicity. The MRAS-SHOC2-PP1 (SHOC2 phosphatase) complex plays a key role in ...
Dual blockade of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR (AZD8055) and RAS/MEK/ERK (AZD6244) pathways synergistically inhibits rhabdomyosarcoma cell growth in vitro and in vivo.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2013-08-05)
PURPOSE: To provide rationale for using phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and/or mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway inhibitors to treat rhabdomyosarcomas, a major cause of pediatric and adolescent cancer deaths. ...
Detection of the prodrug-activating enzyme carboxypeptidase G2 activity with chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance.
(SPRINGER, 2014-04-01)
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the differential exchange rates with bulk water between amine and amide protons can be exploited using chemical exchange saturation transfer magnetic resonance (CEST-MR) ...
canSAR: an integrated cancer public translational research and drug discovery resource.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2012-01-01)
canSAR is a fully integrated cancer research and drug discovery resource developed to utilize the growing publicly available biological annotation, chemical screening, RNA interference screening, expression, amplification ...
GDNF-RET signaling in ER-positive breast cancers is a key determinant of response and resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2013-06-15)
Most breast cancers at diagnosis are estrogen receptor-positive (ER(+)) and depend on estrogen for growth and survival. Blocking estrogen biosynthesis by aromatase inhibitors has therefore become a first-line endocrine ...
Characterization of the genomic features and expressed fusion genes in micropapillary carcinomas of the breast.
(WILEY, 2014-04-01)
Micropapillary carcinoma (MPC) is a rare histological special type of breast cancer, characterized by an aggressive clinical behaviour and a pattern of copy number aberrations (CNAs) distinct from that of grade- and oestrogen ...
canSAR: updated cancer research and drug discovery knowledgebase.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2014-01-01)
canSAR (http://cansar.icr.ac.uk) is a public integrative cancer-focused knowledgebase for the support of cancer translational research and drug discovery. Through the integration of biological, pharmacological, chemical, ...
