TLDR
Global assessment of molecular changes caused by homozygous Pten deletion identified key genes known to be relevant to human prostate cancer, including those "signature" genes associated with human cancer metastasis.

The evolution of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases as regulators of growth and metabolism

TL;DR: In light of the recent advances in understanding of the function of PI3Ks in the pathogenesis of diabetes and cancer, the exciting therapeutic opportunities for targeting this pathway to treat these diseases are discussed.

Molecular determinants of resistance to antiandrogen therapy

TL;DR: Using microarray-based profiling of isogenic prostate cancer xenograft models, it is found that a modest increase in androgen receptor mRNA was the only change consistently associated with the development of resistance to antiandrogen therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting the phosphoinositide 3-kinase pathway in cancer.

TL;DR: The potential of and challenges for the development of therapeutic agents that target this pathway in cancer are discussed and the potential and challenges in understanding of the PI3K pathway are highlighted.

Targeting PI3K signalling in cancer: opportunities, challenges and limitations.

TL;DR: The therapeutic potential of drugs targeting PI3K–Akt signalling for the treatment of cancer is discussed and the advantages and drawbacks of different treatment strategies for targeting this pathway are focused on.

Significance analysis of microarrays applied to the ionizing radiation response

TL;DR: A method that assigns a score to each gene on the basis of change in gene expression relative to the standard deviation of repeated measurements is described, suggesting that this repair pathway for UV-damaged DNA might play a previously unrecognized role in repairing DNA damaged by ionizing radiation.

Gene expression profiling predicts clinical outcome of breast cancer

TL;DR: DNA microarray analysis on primary breast tumours of 117 young patients is used and supervised classification is applied to identify a gene expression signature strongly predictive of a short interval to distant metastases (‘poor prognosis’ signature) in patients without tumour cells in local lymph nodes at diagnosis, providing a strategy to select patients who would benefit from adjuvant therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase AKT pathway in human cancer.

TL;DR: Small-molecule therapeutics that block PI3K signalling might deal a severe blow to cancer cells by blocking many aspects of the tumour-cell phenotype.
