The analysis of serum markers of endothelial cell proliferation thus far has failed to show consistent changes following treatment with most antiangiogenic agents, but changes in serum concentrations of VEGF and soluble VEGFR-2 seem to have more potential to predict tumour hypoxia (Drevs et al, 2003; Toner et al, 2003).
Indeed, the understanding of the relative contribution of individual members of the ErbB receptor family and activated downstream pathways in cervical cancer cell proliferation is far from complete, and further validation of our results in experiments involving primary cervical tumours in vitro are desired.
Effects of Ras activation include increased cell survival and proliferation (Khosravi-Far & Der, 1994; Schubbert et al, 2007).
"Proliferation causes a far greater danger to a far greater number of people than highly controlled use of this fuel in a reactor," said Ms. Harrington, his boss.
