PIM3 or pim-3 oncogene belongs to a family of protooncogenes that encode serine/threonine protein kinases. Pim-3 expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma development and plays a main role in the proliferation of human hepatoma cell lines. Pim-3 also expressed in human pancreatic cancer cell and phosphorylates BAD to block Bad-mediated apoptosis in human pancreatic cancer cell lines.
Pancreatic cancer still remains a serious health problem with <5% 5-year survival rate for all stages. To develop an effective treatment, it is necessary to identify a target molecule that is crucially involved in pancreatic tumor growth. We previously observed

The Pim family of proto-oncogenes encodes a distinct class of serine/threonine kinases consisting of PIM1, PIM2, and PIM3. Although the Pim genes are evolutionarily highly conserved, the contribution of PIM proteins to mammalian development is unclear. PIM1-deficient mice were previously

Most cases of human hepatocellular carcinoma develop after persistent chronic infection with human hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus, and host responses are presumed to have major roles in this process. To recapitulate this process, we have developed the
