In Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH), pro-constrictive, pro-proliferative and anti-apoptotic diatheses converge to produce contraction and excessive proliferation of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMC), a hallmark of PAH-vascular remodeling. The increased afterload causes right...

The activation of caspases is an important step not only in apoptosis induction, but in cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and the immune response. Here, we show that the AP-1 family transcription factor JunB is cleaved and dephosphorylated in a caspase-dependent manner in...

Investigating the functions of the c-Jun and JunB transcription factors in classical Hodgkin Lymphoma
DownloadFall 2016
Classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is characterized by the presence of abnormal mononuclear Hodgkin and multinuclear Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells, which are thought to be derived from clonally expanded germinal center B cells. The tumour cells have been demonstrated to have various signalling...

Understanding the function of the JunB transcription factor in anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive, anaplastic large cell lymphoma
DownloadFall 2013
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive, anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALK+ ALCL) is a non-Hodgkin lymphoma thought to arise from an activated T lymphocyte. This lymphoma is characterized by the presence of chromosomal translocations involving the ALK tyrosine kinase, which generate oncogenic...
