Acquired drug resistance conferred by a KRAS gene mutation following the administration of cetuximab: a case report [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: Although a number of studies have reported acquired drug resistance due to administration of epidermal growth factor receptor antibody inhibitors, the underlying causes of this phenomenon remain unclear.

Platelet-derived transforming growth factor-β1 promotes keratinocyte proliferation in cutaneous wound healing. [PDF]
, 2020 Platelets are a recognised potent source of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGFβ1), a cytokine known to promote wound healing and regeneration by stimulating dermal fibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix deposition.

Activation of tyrosine kinases by mutation of the gatekeeper threonine. [PDF]
, 2008 Protein kinases targeted by small-molecule inhibitors develop resistance through mutation of the gatekeeper threonine residue of the active site. Here we show that the gatekeeper mutation in the cellular forms of c-ABL, c-SRC, platelet-derived growth ...

Coexistence of three EGFR mutations in an NSCLC patient: A brief report [PDF]
, 2018 The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) represents a molecular target for tyrosine kinase inhibitors for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with a mutation in the EGFR gene. Mutations of the EGFR gene that occur at a single position in NSCLC

Mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation is stimulated by red light irradiation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Light at different wavelengths has distinct effects on keratinocyte viability and metabolism. UVA light abrogates metabolic fluxes. Blue and green light have no effect on metabolic fluxes, while red light enhanced oxidative phosphorylation by promoting fatty acid oxidation. Keratinocytes are the primary constituents of sunlight‐exposed epidermis.

Specific Rab GTPase-activating proteins define the Shiga toxin and epidermal growth factor uptake pathways [PDF]
, 2007 Rab family guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) together with their regulators define specific pathways of membrane traffic within eukaryotic cells. In this study, we have investigated which Rab GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) can interfere with the ...

The role of fibroblast growth factors in cell and cancer metabolism
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling regulates crucial signaling cascades that promote cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism. Therefore, FGFs and their receptors are often dysregulated in human diseases, including cancer, to sustain proliferation and rewire metabolism.

Antagonism of the mammalian target of rapamycin selectively mediates metabolic effects of epidermal growth factor receptor inhibition and protects human malignant glioma cells from hypoxia-induced cell death [PDF]
, 2017 Although inhibition of the epidermal growth factor receptor is a plausible therapy for malignant gliomas that, in vitro, enhances apoptosis, the results of clinical trials have been disappointing.
