Oncogene-addicted cancers are predominantly driven by specific oncogenic pathways and display initial exquisite sensitivity to designer therapies, but eventually become refractory to treatments. Clear understanding of lung tumorigenic mechanisms is essential for improved therapies. : Lysosomes were analyzed in EGFR-WT and mutant cells and corresponding patient samples using immunofluorescence or immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting.

Dopamine (DA) is a critical neurotransmitter and has been known to be liable for several neurological diseases. Hence, its sensitive and selective detection is essential for the early diagnosis of diseases related to abnormal levels of DA. In this study, we reported novel molybdenum nanoparticles self-supported functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (Mo NPs@f-MWCNTs) based core-shell hybrid nanomaterial with an average diameter of 40-45 nm was found to be the best for electrochemical DA detection.

Angiogenesis is a highly coordinated process of formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing blood vessels. The process of development of the proper vascular network is a complex process that is crucial for the vertebrate development. Several studies have defined essential roles of Hippo pathway-YAP/TAZ in organ size control, tissue regeneration, and self-renewal.

Activating mutations in the kinase domain of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) leads to the constitutively active kinase, improves the EGFR stability and promotes malignant transformation in lung adenocarcinoma. Despite the clinical significance, the mechanism by which the increased kinase activity stabilizes the receptor is not completely understood. Using SILAC phosphoproteomic approach, we identify that Mig6 is highly phosphorylated at S256 in EGFR mutants (19del and L858R).

Angiogenesis is a highly regulated process for formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing ones. Angiogenesis is dysregulated in various pathologies, including age-related macular degeneration, arthritis, and cancer. Inhibiting pathological angiogenesis therefore represents a promising therapeutic strategy for treating these disorders, highlighting the need to study angiogenesis in more detail.
