Abstract:
Mutation and over-expression of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases (RTKs) or the proteins they regulate serve as oncogenic drivers in diverse cancers. RTKs catalyze the transfer of phosphate from ATP to the hydroxyl group on tyrosine. The proximal stretch of amino acids including this post translational modification is then able to be recognized by SH2 and PTB domains. Chapter 1 details our work to better understand RTK signaling and its link to oncogenesis using protein microarrays to systematically and quantitatively measure interactions between virtually every SH2 or PTB domain encoded in the human

La schistosomiase constitue un problème majeur de santé publique dans de nombreux pays émergents d'Afrique, d'Amérique Latine et d'Asie du Sud Est, causant près de 300 000 décès par an. Cette maladie est due au schistosome qui est un ver parasite possédant un cycle de vie complexe. A ce jour une seule drogue est utilisée en monothérapie, le praziquantel ou PZQ, pour lutter contre cette maladie. En raison d'apparitions de résistances au PZQ, il devient nécessaire de rechercher de nouvelles cibles thérapeutiques contre le ver.

With a five-year survival rate of less than 5%, pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers. The most common activating mutations in pancreatic cancer are found in the KRAS gene, causing a constitutively-active KRAS protein in approximately 90% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC). PDAC-derived cell lines that harbor oncogenic KRAS mutations can be divided into two classes, KRAS dependent (or addicted) cells and KRAS independent cells. Oncogene dependency (or addiction) is a phenomenon where tu-mors require sustained activity of a single aberrantly activated gene despite the accum

Abstract:
Signal transduction is a mode of cellular communication essential for an organism’s sustenance and survival. Cell communication in higher organisms is largely executed by two classes of cell surface receptors i.e. G-protein coupled Receptors (GPCRs) and receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Though the activation of each of these receptors have shown to regulate cellular responses through a linear pathway the underlying signaling events are much more complicated. A number of studies have shown that the signaling regulators of the RTK mediated pathway can be cross-activated by GPCRs activation

The enhanced ICAM-1 expression resulted in increased adhesion of U937 cells to NCI-H292 cells. A PI-PLC inhibitor (U73122), tyrosine kinase inhibitors (genistein or herbimycin), or Src family inhibitor (PP2) attenuated the IFN-g-induced ICAM-1 expression. PKC inhibitors (staurosporine or Ro 31-8220) also inhibited IFN-g-induced response. TPA, a PKC activator, stimulated ICAM-1 expression, this effect being inhibited by tyrosine kinase or Src in

Abstract:
Activated receptor tyrosine kinases recruit many signalling proteins to initiate downstream cell proliferation and survival pathways, including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), a heterodimer consisting of a p85 regulatory protein and a p110 catalytic protein. Our laboratory has previously shown the p85α protein also has in vitro GTPase activating protein (GAP) activity towards Rab5 and Rab4, small GTPases that regulate vesicle trafficking events for activated receptors. Expression of a p85α protein containing an arginine to alanine substitution at position 274 (p85R274A) that affects its

Abstract:
O cancro oral é definido pela Classificação Internacional de Doenças pelo conjunto de tumores malignos que afetam qualquer localização da cavidade oral, dos lábios à garganta, incluindo as amígdalas e a faringe. É importante referir que o cancro oral é um dos tipos de doença oncológica mais comum a nível mundial e apresenta uma elevada taxa de mortalidade. De uma forma genérica, esta doença tem como principais abordagens terapêuticas a intervenção cirúrgica, a radioterapia e a quimioterapia, ou até mesmo a combinação destas terapias.
