Adaptive Mechanisms in Cancer Cells02:53

Adaptive Mechanisms in Cancer Cells

7.6K
Cancer cells accumulate genetic changes at an abnormally rapid rate due to the defects in the DNA repair mechanisms. From an evolutionary perspective, such genetic instability is advantageous for cancer development. Mutant cell lines accumulate a series of beneficial mutations that contribute to their progression into cancer.
Some of the advantages that cancer cells have on normal cells include - enhanced ability to divide without terminally differentiating, induce new blood vessel formation,...

mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression

5.1K
The mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR protein was discovered in 1994 due to its direct interaction with rapamycin. The protein gets its name from a yeast homolog called TOR. The mTOR protein complex in mammalian cells plays a major role in balancing anabolic processes such as the synthesis of proteins, lipids, and nucleotides and catabolic processes, such as autophagy in response to environmental cues, such as availability of nutrients and growth factors.
The mTOR pathway or the...

Cancer02:18

Cancer

56.4K
Cancers arise due to mutations in genes involved in the regulation of cell division, which leads to unrestricted cell proliferation. Modern science and medicine have made great strides in the understanding and treatment of cancer, including eradicating cancer in some patients. However, there is still no cure for cancer. This is largely due to the fact that cancer is a large group of many diseases.

Interactions Between Signaling Pathways01:19

Interactions Between Signaling Pathways

8.0K
Signaling cascades usually lack linearity. Multiple pathways interact and regulate one another, allowing cells to integrate and respond to diverse environmental stimuli.
Convergence and divergence, and cross-talk between signaling pathways
Two distinct signaling pathways can converge on a single functional unit, which may either be a single protein or a complex of proteins. The response is either functionally distinct or synergistic between the two pathways but different from the response...

Abnormal Proliferation02:23

Abnormal Proliferation

5.5K
Under normal conditions, most adult cells remain in a non-proliferative state unless stimulated by internal or external factors to replace lost cells. Abnormal cell proliferation is a condition in which the cell's growth exceeds and is uncoordinated with normal cells. In such situations, cell division persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli, leading to persistent tumors. The tumor arises from the damaged cells that replicate to pass the damage to the...

    Area of Science:

    • Systems Biology
    • Molecular Oncology
    • Genomics

    Background:

    • Cancer arises from complex genetic interactions, not just individual genes.
    • Multi-protein complexes integrate gene effects and offer insights into cancer mechanisms.
    • Aberrant expression of protein complexes and their regulation by transcription factors (TFs) are observed in cancer.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To systematically analyze protein complexes and their transcriptional regulation for novel insights into cancer mechanisms.
    • To understand how coordinated TF action influences complex expression changes in cancer.

    Main Methods:

    • Integration of large-scale protein-interaction (PPI) and gene-expression datasets.
    • Development of a log-linear model to link differential complex expression to TF regulation.
    • Application of the model to pancreatic and breast tumor data.

    Main Results:

    • Identified significant changes in expression for complexes involved in genome stability and cell proliferation.
    • Observed decreased and increased expression of different complexes, indicating compensatory mechanisms in tumors.
    • Revealed cooperative and counteractive roles of TFs in regulating these complex expression changes.

    Conclusions:

    • Complexes in core cellular processes exhibit reciprocal expression changes, reflecting cancer-related compensatory mechanisms.
    • Concerted action of cooperative and counteractive TFs drives these complex expression alterations.
    • The study provides novel insights into cancer mechanisms by highlighting the roles of aberrant complexes and their regulating TFs.
