Advances in our understanding of the signal transduction pathways involved in cellular growth control have provided several new strategies for cancer therapy. Recent advances now make it possible to develop selective inhibitors targeting genomic instability, the growth, survival, and invasion of the

Molecular medicine and genomics technologies are inseparable for defining new molecular targets. cDNA databases and elementary informatic tools provide instantaneous glimpses of gene families or tissue-restricted expression patterns as a means of new target identification. In addition, cDNA microarr
Separate receptors for estrogen and androgen are demonstrated in cells from metastic human breast cancer. By criteria of binding affinity, number of binding sites, and specificity of the receptor for different steroids, the receptors are shown to be distinguishable. The protamine sulfate receptor as
