coupled receptors (GPCRs) in breast cancer, and his interest in pancreatic cancer. as a potential drug target due to its high expression in triple negative breast cancer. Mike then transitioned to pancreatic cancer, questioning why genes are dysregulated in cancer, which led him to explore different aspects of gene regulation and its relation to cancer progression. fibroblasts and is crucial for their function, leading to complications in cancer patients.

Simultaneous activation of CXC chemokine receptor 4 and histamine receptor H1 enhances calcium signaling and cancer and is involved in several cancer phenotypes including tumor growth, survival, and metastasis. The roles of histamine and histamine receptor H1 (HRH1) in cancer pathogenesis remain controversial. Here, we show that HRH1 is widely expressed in various cancer cell lines and cancer tissues and that coexpression of CXCR4 and HRH1 is associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer.

Metallo-protease Peptidase M84 from Bacillusaltitudinis induces ROS-dependent apoptosis in ovarian cancer had no discernible impact on normal cell survival, but it specifically induced apoptosis in ovarian cancer PAR-1, a GPCR which is reported to be overexpressed in ovarian cancer cells, was identified as a target This evoked apoptotic death of the ovarian cancer cells through the intrinsic route. This established Peptidase M84 as a drug candidate for receptor mediated targeted-therapy of ovarian cancer

< GPCR News < GPCRs in Oncology and Immunology Molecular characterization of breast cancer cell pools Abstract "Background: About one-third of patients with estrogen receptor alpha (ERα)-positive breast cancer PR is an important prognostic factor in breast cancer. New evidence has shown that progesterone (P4) has an anti-proliferative effect in ERα-positive breast cancer However, the role of PR in breast cancer is only poorly understood.
