These findings link structural variation of red blood
cell invasion receptors with natural resistance to severe malaria.

As Louis H. Miller, Head of Malaria
Cell Biology Section at the National Institutes of Health notes, «The findings on the liver
receptor EphA2 for malaria parasite sporozoite
invasion of liver
cells is a critically important advance and might allow us to devise new strategies to block parasite infection.»
Our discovery that a specific variant of glycophorin
invasion receptors can give substantial protection against severe malaria will hopefully inspire further research on exactly how Plasmodium falciparum invade red blood
cells.
MicroRNA - 503 suppresses
cell proliferation and
invasion in osteosarcoma via targeting insulin - like growth factor 1
receptor.
We are focusing on a few key molecular pathways including; 1) Polycomb - mediated epigenetic gene silencing in the tumor initiation, maintenance, and
invasion, 2) c - Met (
receptor tyrosine kinase) signal transduction pathways in stemness and migration of these tumor
cells, 3) Novel mitogenic signaling pathways that are specific to GSCs, and 4) Identification of radio - and chemo - sensitizing pathway to maximize therapeutic efficacy.
Inhibition of
cell migration and
invasion of enzalutamide - resistant prostate cancer
cells was effected by niclosamide through its effects on the androgen
receptor (AR)- STAT3 signaling axis [40].
Through its various targets, MMP1 promotes not only tumor
invasion but also breast cancer colonization to bone by mechanisms that include the release of membrane - bound EGF - like growth factors from tumor
cells, leading to activation of EGF
receptor signaling and suppression of OPG expression in osteoblasts, which in turn promotes the differentiation and activation of osteoclasts required for bone destruction and enhanced tumor growth in the bone microenvironment (32).
He goes on to say, «One theory is that when patients ingest our Turkey Tail mycelium, the immune system's increased populations of NK
cells and their associated CD8 glycoproteins are better able to discover and bind to
receptor sites on the stroma of tumors, thus allowing NK
invasion.
