Cell Signaling: the process of cells communicating with other cells within the body, or with the external environment. As a process, cell signaling refers to a vast network of communication between, and within, each cell of our body.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health threat, affecting 11-15% of the U.S. population alone. Currently, there are no effective therapies to cure CKD. Drug therapies are not p...

One of the most common pathologically relevant mutated variants of ALK-2 (activin receptor-like kinase-2) has a point mutation (R206H) in its Ser/Thr kinase domain that promotes uncontrolled...
Despite the increasing number of effective anti-cancer therapies, successful treatment is limited by the development of drug resistance. While the contribution of genetic factors to drug res...
