Abstract excerpt
Constitutively activated tyrosine kinases play an important role in human malignancies. Their constant downstream signaling leads to cell proliferation and the inhibition of anti-apoptotic mechanisms. New cancer therapeutics have been designed to specifically target the activated kinases in human cancers and in some instances treatment with these agents leads to tumor regression. With the use of new molecular...
