TL;DR: A user-friendly, open-access bioinformatic resource, The Cancer Proteome Atlas (TCPA), which contains two separate web applications that provide various analytic and visualization modules to help cancer researchers explore these datasets and generate testable hypotheses in an effective and intuitive manner.

TL;DR: RPPA technology has emerged as a robust, sensitive, cost-effective approach to the analysis of large numbers of samples for quantitative assessment of key members of functional pathways that are affected by tumor-targeting therapeutics.

TL;DR: The value of this module is demonstrated by examining the correlations of RPPA proteins with significantly mutated genes, assessing the predictive power of somatic copy-number alterations, DNA methylation, and mRNA onprotein expression, inferring the regulatory effects of miRNAs on protein expression, constructing a co-expression network of proteins and pathways, and identifying clinically relevant protein markers.

TL;DR: FAK may be a unique therapeutic target in EOC given the dual anti-angiogenic and anti-metastatic potential of FAK inhibitors.

TL;DR: This work studies packet authentication in wireless networks and proposes a hop-by-hop, efficient authentication protocol, called HEAP, which authenticates packets at every hop by using a modified HMAC-based algorithm along with two keys and drops any packets that originate from outsiders.
