Cancer and Metastasis Signaling Pathways

Cancer and metastasis signaling involves many different pathways including cell signaling, DNA damage, and inflammation. To investigate them, researchers need to analyze various proteins in these pathways such as the Src family kinase, JAK-STAT proteins, TGFβ, NFκB, mTOR, and more. Figure 1 gives a general overview of these pathways and related proteins.
