The phrase "attack pathway" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to biology, medicine, or cybersecurity, referring to the route or mechanism through which an attack occurs or is executed.
Example: "Researchers are studying the attack pathway of the virus to develop more effective treatments."
Alternatives: "assault route" or "attack route".
And such is the power of these decision trees that even if you are a circus employee and Jumbo the elephant has just stepped on your chest, the chances are that once you say "chest pain" you will wind up on that heart attack pathway, just in case.
The result indicates that the OO bond formation of the dinuclear catalyst 1 follows a water nucleophilic attack pathway rather than a radical coupling pathway.
Substrate cleavage may then proceed via nucleophilic attack (pathway 1) or Criegee rearrangement (pathway 2) [111] of the peroxidate moiety.
Simultaneously attacking pathways by combining different drugs that act on different targets and/or mechanisms presents an attractive means to overcome treatment resistance.
Where relatives have felt excluded, we need to ask why doctors were not using the LCP properly, not to attack the pathway itself.
Using that information, ViroLogic should be able to determine which cancer drug is the right one to attack the pathway.
And, Plas explains, similar to the way current therapies attack signaling pathways that control cell cycle and metastasis, targeting the regulation of metabolism signaling pathways has the potential to serve as an avenue for cancer treatments.
Two molecular targeted drugs that either attack a novel pathway or employ a new means to attack a known pathway are highlighted here.
If the pathway attacked by that drug is not active in a patient, the drug is unlikely to curb his tumour's growth.In fairness to the researchers, the trials were conducted this way because quick, reliable tests to identify the molecular nature of these cancers do not exist.
Plants respond differently to mechanical wounding and herbivore attack, using distinct pathways for defense.
We provide evidence that a multipoint targeted attack on these pathways, involving concomitant inhibition of PI3K, AKT, and mTOR, might serve best to disrupt the oncogenic signalling pathways.
