What cause cancer?Cancer cells come from normal cells, what changed?
Gene mutation

Background: Overview of NF-κB classical signaling pathway
Activated NFkB were found in almost 70% cancer cells.
NFkB signaling pathway has become a variety of malignant tumor therapy and drug discovery is an important target.

Experimental: Results & Discussion: Future Goals
1. Making our drug screening system work better.
1. Improve specifity: building the fine-adjusted in other cells.2. Shorten twinkle cycle-time: show some features in pharmacokinetics of drugs.3. Achieve semiquantitative measure: detect the light intensity of GFP and make a standard curve.

Experimental: Results & Discussion: Application
1. Making our drug screening system work better.
1. How to do: inject DU-145 in which have a moderate expression level of IκB.2. Long-term drug evaluation system: tumor grow slowly, mice survive longer.3. Sensitive system: observe twinkle instead o measuring the size of tumor.

Human Practice
Our team had a interchange with Peking iGEM team and BIT iGEM team in August. We shared our own idea to each other, and offered advice for the problem.
Our Team’s member Li Xiaomeng had been honoured to visit the BIT iGEM 2013 Team’s lab. And help them to characterize and construct a part of Cr sensor.

Human PracticeWe held two promotion meetings concerning iGEM for all students in our school and Lanzhou No.1 Meddle School successfully. Meanwhile, the opening day of iGEM lab has been excellently work out with the amazing enthusiasm in this summer vacation.
