Oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) is an important process that suppresses tumor development, but the molecular mechanisms of OIS are still under investigation. It is known that BRAF-mutated melanocytes can overcome OIS and develop melanoma, but the underlying mechanism is largely unknown. Using an established OIS model of primary melanocytes transduced with BRAF, YAP activity was shown to be induced in OIS as well as in melanoma cells compared to that in normal epidermal melanocytes.

Unlabelled: The concept of the personalized rehabilitation is based on the principle of applying physical and rehabilitative medicine techniques depending on the factors that mostly influence on rehabilitation efficacy in a particular patient - determinant of effectiveness. Current achievements in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer (BC) significantly increased overall patients' life expectancy, updating rehabilitative treatment stage, which is often unmet.
Objective: To perform the comprehensive analysis of the efficacy of personalized rehabilitation programs in patients with BC.
Modifications in nuclear structures of cells are implicated in several diseases including cancer. They result in changes in nuclear activity, structural dynamics and cell signalling. However, the role of the nuclear lamina and related proteins in malignant melanoma is still unknown.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFDetection and quantification of senescent cells remain difficult due to variable phenotypes and the absence of highly specific and reliable biomarkers. It is therefore widely accepted to use a combination of multiple markers and cellular characteristics to define senescent cells in vitro. The exact choice of these markers is a subject of ongoing discussion and usually depends on objective reasons such as cell type and treatment conditions, as well as subjective considerations including feasibility and personal experience.
