Cell Signaling

This page provides educational resources, events, news and products related to cell signaling. Content will cover aspects from the importance of signaling for normal cellular and biological system function and aberrant signaling seen in diseases such as cancer, to the signal transduction process and therapeutic opportunities.

Cell Communication and Signaling Dysregulation in Cancer

Here, Caroline Hill, Ph.D., from The Francis Crick Institute, UK, shares insight into cell communication and signaling dysregulation – her area of expertise. Her research group are focused on understanding the signals sent to, and sent by cells – and how this communication influences cellular behavior. As well as touching on her research, Caroline discusses the evolution of cancer and suggests strategies for encouraging more women to pursue a career in STEM.

Cell Signaling in Cancer: Communicating Recent Advances

Download this listicle to learn how abberant cell signaling can impact proliferation, metabolism, the cell cycle, DNA repair, apoptosis and angiogenesis.

Cell Signaling in Cancer

This article discusses the relationship between cell signaling and cancer, highlights key signaling pathways involved in cancer, and explores how critical mediators of aberrant signaling can be turned into therapeutic targets for cancer.

Cell Signaling in Cancer

In this infographic, we take a closer look at the relationship between cell signaling and cancer, highlight what happens when signaling goes wrong and explore how critical mediators of abnormal signaling can be therapeutically targeted.

The Role of Wnt Signaling in Cancer

Aberrant Wnt signaling has also been identified as a key mechanism in cancer biology. This article summarizes both the canonical (β-catenin dependent) and non-canonical (β-catenin independent) signaling pathways. It also highlights the role of Wnt signaling in numerous cancers and discusses novel approaches to targeting the pathway.

Newly-Discovered Bacterial Protein Keeps Human Cells Healthy

Researchers describes a hitherto unknown protein with anti-oxidizing properties secreted by Coxiella burnetii, a Gram-negative intracellular bacterium, pointing to possible treatments for auto-immune diseases and even cancer.

Cannabis Use Associated With Brain Immune Cell Changes Vital to Development

Johns Hopkins researchers found that high levels of THC in adolescent mice caused brain immune cell changes linked to increased risk of psychiatric disorders and learning problems.

Extracting Meaningful Data With High-Throughput Drug Discovery Approaches

This article focuses on the use of high-throughput screening approaches in drug discovery and discusses the latest developments in this area.

How Do Sunflowers See the Sun?

Sunflowers famously turn their faces to follow the sun as it crosses the sky. But how do sunflowers “see” the sun to follow it? New work shows that they use a different, novel mechanism from that previously thought.

Mammalian Cells Eat Bacteria-Killing Viruses To Survive

A recent study from Monash University has revealed that bacteriophages may also provide a symbiotic benefit to mammalian cells, promoting cellular growth and survival.

Chloroplasts Unveiled as Key Players in Plant Immunity

Scientists have long known that chloroplasts help plants turn the sun’s energy into food, but a new study shows that they are also essential for plant immunity to viral and bacterial pathogens.
