Journal ArticleDOI

Escape from HER-family tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy by the kinase-inactive HER3.

TL;DR: The experimental abrogation of HER3 resistance by small interfering RNA knockdown restores potent pro-apoptotic activity to otherwise cytostatic HER TKIs, re-affirming the oncogene-addicted nature of HER2-driven tumours and the therapeutic promise of this oncoprotein target.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Mutant-p53/Smad Complex Opposes p63 to Empower TGFβ-Induced Metastasis

TL;DR: Two common oncogenic lesions, mutant-p53 and Ras, selected in early neoplasms to promote growth and survival, also prefigure a cellular set-up with particular metastasis proclivity by TGFbeta-dependent inhibition of p63 function.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Central Role for RAF→MEK→ERK Signaling in the Genesis of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

TL;DR: It is shown that expression of BRAF(V600E), but not PIK3CA(H1047R), in the mouse pancreas leads to pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) lesions, and RAF→MEK→ERK signaling is central to the initiation and maintenance of PDA and to rational combination strategies in this disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeted tumor cell internalization and imaging of multifunctional quantum dot-conjugated immunoliposomes in vitro and in vivo.

TL;DR: The synthesis, biophysical characterization, tumor cell-selective internalization, and anticancer drug delivery of QD-conjugated immunoliposome-based nanoparticles (QD-ILs) are described to incorporate the unique optical properties of luminescent quantum dots into immunolIPosomes for cancer diagnosis and treatment.
