1. 2013SignaLink 2 — a signaling pathway resource with multi-layered regulatory networksFazekas D, … Dul Z, … · BMC Systems Biology · IF 3.15 SignaLink 2 is a signalling database that describes the major pathways not in isolation but together with their transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulatory networks. Protein–protein interactions, transcription factors and miRNAs become visible in a single, queryable system — which is what made it possible to study cross-talk between pathways. PDF
2. 2013Novel signatures of cancer-associated fibroblastsBozóky B, … Dul Z, … · International Journal of Cancer · IF 5.44 Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are key players in the tumour microenvironment. The work identified novel molecular signatures that distinguish these cells from normal fibroblasts — offering a handle on how the environment shapes tumour behaviour. PDF
3. 2012The NRF2-related interactome and regulome contain multifunctional proteins and fine-tuned autoregulatory loopsPapp D, … Dul Z, … · FEBS Letters · IF 3.54 NRF2 is the central regulator of the cellular response to oxidative stress. We assembled the full NRF2 interactome and regulome and showed that multifunctional proteins and fine-tuned autoregulatory loops keep the system in balance — explaining why the response is both robust and sensitive.
