Based on studies in human melanoma cells, the research paves the way for developing new ways to treat cancer by dampening overactive enzyme activity that leads to uncontrolled tumor growth. The study shows how small-molecule inhibitors can be designed to target a family of signaling proteins, called phosphatidyl-inositol-3-kinases, or PI3Ks.</p> http://health-fitness.marc8.com/novel-enzyme-inhibitor-paves-way-new-cancer-drug#comments Top stories biochemical pathway human melanoma cells molecule inhibitors novel enzyme wistar institute http://health-fitness.marc8.com/crss/node/6386 Fri, 16 May 2008 00:00:00 -0500 admin 6386 at http://health-fitness.marc8.com
