A recent study led by Associate Professor Takuya Yamamoto and Researcher May Nakajima-Koyama has revealed that maintaining a delicate balance between interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) and extracellular ...

Researchers have identified a key pathway that links how neurons send ... Zent et al, Synapse-to-nucleus ERK-CREB transcriptional signaling requires dendrite-to-soma Ca2+propagation mediated ...

Estrogen is known to activate the ERK signaling pathway in a variety of different cell types. Figure 1: Mechanisms of rapid non-genomic receptor-dependent actions of estrogen in four cell types.

The laboratory is studying small molecules that selectively inhibit the components of RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK and PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathways. These compounds are being used as reagents to define the role of these ...

Aberrant activation of the Ras/Raf/MAPK/ERK kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase cascade and the VEGF pathway are commonly observed in breast cancer cells leading to malignant cell ...

Panel A summarizes the conventional model of how oncogenic RAS guanosine triphosphatases (i.e., Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homologue [KRAS], neuroblastoma RAS viral oncogene homologue ...
