Id-1 promotes tumorigenicity and metastasis of human esophageal cancer cells through activation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

29 Nov 2009 Id-1 (inhibitor of differentiation or DNA binding) is a helix-loop-helix protein that is overexpressed in many types of cancer including esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). We previously reported that ectopic Id-1 expression activates the ... Read more...

HER3 is required for the maintenance of neuregulin-dependent and -independent attributes of malignant progression in prostate cancer cells.

29 Nov 2009 HER3 (ERBB3) is a catalytically inactive pseudokinase of the HER receptor tyrosine kinase family, frequently overexpressed in prostate and other cancers. Aberrant expression and mutations of 2 other members of the family, EGFR and HER2, are key ... Read more...

Acellular dermal graft as a treatment of recurrent conjunctival wound dehiscence.

30 Oct 2009 A cellular dermal graft (ADG) functions as a scaffold to harness nature's regenerative healing process. Frequently used in eyelid and orbital surgery, application of ADG to the globe has not been reported, to our knowledge. In a patient with a ... Read more...
