Genetic Mutation That Triggers Pancreatic Cancer Identified
January 28th, 2012 Posted by: admin
Scientists at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have identified a self-perpetuating “loop” of molecular activity that fuels pancreatic cancer by linking two signature characteristics of the disease – Kras, a gene that serves as a molecular on-off switch, but gets stuck on the “on” position when mutated, and NF-κB, a protein complex that controls activation of genes…
