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

โฆ Synopsis
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 tumor, and its nourishment through the growth of new blood vessels.

Tuberculosis remains a serious global health threat with nearly 10 million new cases and 1.7 million deaths every year. The emergence of multi-drug resistant (MDR) and extensively drug resistant (XDR) strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) further complicates this problem. It is pressing to fin
