Graff J, Konicek B, Vincent T, Lynch R, Monteith D, Weir S, et al.
J Clin Invest . 2007 Sep; 117(9):2638-48. PMID: 17786246
Expression of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) is commonly elevated in human and experimental cancers, promoting angiogenesis and tumor growth. Elevated eIF4E levels selectively increase translation of growth factors...

J Immunol . 2006 Mar; 176(6):3652-61. PMID: 16517734
A number of proinflammatory cytokines, including IL-1beta, signal through the adaptor protein MyD88. This signaling leads to phosphorylation of IL-1R-associated kinase-1 (IRAK-1) and, ultimately, activation of the NF-kappaB transcription factor....
