Putting Skeptics in Their Place vs. Stopping Them in Their Tracks: Two Anti-skeptical Strategies 0. Introduction: Putting Skeptics in Their Place vs. Stopping Them in Their Tracks
For reasons that I hope will soon become clear, I would like to begin this paper with somewhat irresponsibly entertaining the idea that my esteemed friend and colleague, John Greco, is a philosophical descendant of John Buridan, via the Scottish common sense philosopher Thomas Reid and his Cambridge-descendant, G. E. Moore. In these musings, I will confine myself to establishing a sufficiently ...
متن کاملStopping MYC in its tracks
a transcriptional regulator that in order to function has to dimerize with a specific partner protein, MAX. The MYC-MAX dimer regulates the expression of thousands of genes involved in fundamental cellular processes including growth, proliferation, differentiation, biosynthesis, energy metabolism, and apoptosis [1-3]. The discovery that MYC becomes overexpressed as a result of chromosomal rearr...
متن کاملStopping Ras in Its Tracks
Ras interacts with many downstream effectors that regulate complex cytoplasmic signaling networks. In this issue, Gupta et al. (2007) use mouse models of Ras-mediated tumorigenesis to show that the interaction of Ras with a single isoform of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), called p110alpha (PIK3CA), is critical for tumor formation. This result will stimulate re-evaluation of pharmacologic...
متن کاملCAMs are stopping cancer in its metastatic tracks.
A counterintuitive idea is making the rounds in cancer research: Stickiness promotes mobility. Proteins that help cells stick together, called cellular adhesion molecules (CAMs), may be a driving force in metastasis, and they seem to be present in almost every cancer tested. The good news is that blocking CAMs seems to slow the spread of cancer. In fact, using antibodies to interfere with CAMs ...
متن کاملMolecular motors interacting with their own tracks.
Dynamics of molecular motors that move along linear lattices and interact with them via reversible destruction of specific lattice bonds is investigated theoretically by analyzing exactly solvable discrete-state "burnt-bridge" models. Molecular motors are viewed as diffusing particles that can asymmetrically break or rebuild periodically distributed weak links when passing over them. Our explic...
