Compound 5 (Cpd 5), a synthetic K vitamin analogue, or 2-(2-mercaptoethanol)-3-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone, is a potent inhibitor of epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced rat hepatocyte DNA synthesis and induces EGF receptor (EGFR) tyrosine phosphorylation. To understand the cellular responses to Cpd

## Abstract Mammalian Sprouty2 (Spry2) is a key regulator of the receptor tyrosine kinase/ERK signaling pathway and is involved in many biological processes, including cell growth, differentiation, migration, and embryonic lung branching morphogenesis. Previous studies have shown that Spry2 express
The mechanism of Ca 2Ο© influx in nonexcitable cells is not known yet. According to the capacitative hypothesis, Ca 2Ο© influx is triggered by IP 3 -mediated Ca 2Ο© release from the intracellular Ca 2Ο© stores. Conversely, many workers have reported a lack of association between release and influx. In t
## Abstract Vitamin D (VD) protects against colon carcinogenesis by mechanisms not fully understood. We had earlier reported on the similarity in the biologic action of VD and that of the calciumβsensing receptor (CaSR) in human colon carcinoma cells. At the molecular level, the CaSR gene contains
