Biological and molecular heterogeneity of breast cancers correlates with their cancer stem cell contentSalvatore Pece
IFOM, Fondazione Istituto FIRC di Oncologia Molecolare, Via Adamello 16, 20139 Milan, Italy
Cell 140:62-73. 2010..Our data support the notion that the heterogeneous phenotypical and molecular traits of human breast cancers are a function of their CSC content...
Alterations of the Notch pathway in lung cancerBritta Westhoff
IFOM, Fondazione Istituto FIRC di Oncologia Molecolare, Milan, Italy
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 106:22293-8. 2009..Our results show that the deregulation of the Notch pathway is a relatively frequent event in NSCLCs and suggest that it might represent a possible target for molecular therapies in these tumors...
NUMB-ing down cancer by more than just a NOTCHSalvatore Pece
Fondazione Istituto FIRC di Oncologia Molecolare, Via Adamello 16, 20139, Milan, Italy
Biochim Biophys Acta 1815:26-43. 2011..Finally, we will discuss the role of Numb in the maintenance of the normal stem cell compartment, as a starting point to interpret the tumor suppressor function of Numb in the context of the cancer stem cell hypothesis...
NUMB controls p53 tumour suppressor activityIvan N Colaluca
IFOM, the FIRC Institute for Molecular Oncology Foundation, Via Adamello 16, 20139, Milan, Italy
Nature 451:76-80. 2008..Biologically, this results in an aggressive tumour phenotype, as witnessed by findings that NUMB-defective breast tumours display poor prognosis. Our results uncover a previously unknown tumour suppressor circuitry...
