To correlate the variable clinical features of oestrogen-receptor-positive breast cancer with somatic alterations, we studied pretreatment tumour biopsies accrued from patients in two studies of neoadjuvant aromatase inhibitor therapy by... more
The present study was undertaken to explore the mechanism of paclitaxel induced apoptosis. Previous studies have shown that paclitaxel stabilizes microtubules and causes cell cycle arrest. It also acts through MAPK pathway. Moreover, the... more
Huntington’s disease (HD) is an autosomal dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disease associated with abnormal expansions of a stretch of perfect CAG repeats in the HD gene. The number of repeat units is predictive for the age at onset... more

The mechanisms by which Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) contributes to the development of gastric cancer are unclear. We investigated EBV-associated genomic and epigenomic variations in gastric cancer cells and tumors. We performed whole-genome,... more
Although supplementation with the selenocompound, sodium selenite has been shown to stimulate the concanavalin A-induced T-cell mitogenic response, the mechanisms responsible remain unclear. This study was conducted to evaluate the... more
Adenovirus E1B proteins (19,000-molecular-weight [19K] and 55K proteins) inhibit apoptosis and cooperate with adenovirus E1A to induce full oncogenic transformation of primary cells. The E1B 19K protein has previously been shown to be... more
The Ras-Raf-MAPK pathway is constitutively activated in the majority of melanomas because of a mutation in the BRAF gene. It has been hypothesized that activation of this pathway is crucial for the genesis and maintenance of melanoma and... more
