Suppression of Therapeutic Escape in Breast Cancer by BTK Inhibition
This technology offers the potential of new and novel cancer treatments based on various inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinases
Background:
Genes that regulate extracellular growth, differentiation, and developmental signals are commonly mutated in cancers. Protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) mediate the reversible process of tyrosine phosphorylation,...

Targeting Alternative N-terminal Kinases
Offers the potential of treating epithelial tumors with therapeutics based on BTK-C, a palmitoylated isoform of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK).
Background:
Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) plays an active role in the development, maturation, and signaling of B cells. BTK regulates cell proliferation, survival, and migration in various B-cell...

A Novel PET Imaging Agent for Diagnosing Bacterial Infections
A PET tracer, [18F]F-PABA which is taken up only by bacterial cells thus making it specific for diagnosing infection. Background: Bacterial infections such as those of prosthetic joints, bones (osteomyelitis) and heart valves (infective endocarditis) are difficult to diagnose and treat, and are a major cause of mortality, morbidity and health care...
