© 2020 The Authors Metastasis is the leading cause of death for patients with cancer. Consequently it is imperative that we improve our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie progression of tumor growth toward malignancy. Advances in...

An apicobasal gradient of Rac activity determines protrusion form and position (2017)
Journal Article
Couto, A., Mack, N. A., Favia, L., & Georgiou, M. (2017). An apicobasal gradient of Rac activity determines protrusion form and position. Nature Communications, 8, Article 15385. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms15385

Each cell within a polarised epithelial sheet must align and correctly position a wide range of subcellular structures, including actin-based dynamic protrusions. Using in vivo inducible transgenes that can sense or modify Rac activity, we demonstrat... Read More about An apicobasal gradient of Rac activity determines protrusion form and position.

Glycosylated notch and cancer (2016)
Journal Article
Pakkiriswami, S., Couto, A., Nagarajan, U., & Georgiou, M. (2016). Glycosylated notch and cancer. Frontiers in Oncology, 6(37), https://doi.org/10.3389/fonc.2016.00037

Glycosylation is one of the key components influencing several signaling pathways implicated in cell survival and growth. The Notch signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in numerous cell fate specifications during metazoan development. Both Notch an... Read More about Glycosylated notch and cancer.
