Atmospheric mixing ratios of methyl ethyl ketone (2-butanone) in tropical, boreal, temperate and marine environments [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016
Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) enters the atmosphere following direct emission from vegetation and anthropogenic activities, as well as being produced by the gas-phase oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as n-butane. This study presents the

mTOR inhibition induces compensatory, therapeutically targetable MEK activation in renal cell carcinoma. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Rapamycin derivatives allosterically targeting mTOR are currently FDA approved to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and catalytic inhibitors of mTOR/PI3K are now in clinical trials for treating various solid tumors.

PPP6C negatively regulates oncogenic ERK signaling through dephosphorylation of MEK

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Summary: Flux through the RAF-MEK-ERK protein kinase cascade is shaped by phosphatases acting on the core components of the pathway. Despite being an established drug target and a hub for crosstalk regulation, little is known about dephosphorylation of ...

Oncolytic Effects of a Novel Influenza A Virus Expressing Interleukin-15 from the NS Reading Frame [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Oncolytic influenza A viruses with deleted NS1 gene (delNS1) replicate selectively in tumour cells with defective interferon response and/or activated Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK signalling pathway.

Onset of vitiligo following targeted therapy for BRAFV600E-mutated melanoma: case report

open access: yesDrugs in Context, 2019
Systemic treatment for metastatic melanoma has advanced dramatically in recent years with an impressive increase in the rate of overall survival. The two main different strategies are targeted therapies (i.e.

IRF1 Downregulation by Ras/MEK Is Independent of Translational Control of IRF1 mRNA. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Oncogenic activation of Ras/MEK downregulates the expression of interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1), which is a prerequisite for oncolytic viruses to replicate in cancer cells [1].

Basal-Subtype and MEK-Pl3K Feedback Signaling Determine Susceptibility of Breast Cancer Cells to MEK Inhibition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Specific inhibitors of MEK have been developed that efficiently inhibit the oncogenic RAF-MEK-ERK pathway. We employed a systems-based approach to identify breast cancer subtypes particularly susceptible to MEK inhibitors and to understand molecular ...

Immunological effects of BRAF+MEK inhibition

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2018
Recent developments in immunotherapy have prolonged overall survival in metastatic melanoma with the possibility to reach a long-term benefit. Targeted therapies based on BRAF and MEK inhibition also seem to have a long-term beneficial effect, which is ...

Role of BRAF in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Rationale for Future Targeted Cancer Therapies

open access: yesMedicina, 2019
The few therapeutic strategies for advance hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on poor knowledge of its biology. For several years, sorafenib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) inhibitor, has been the approved treatment option, to date, for advanced HCC ...

DNMT1 expression partially dictates 5-Azacytidine sensitivity and correlates with RAS/MEK/ERK activity in gastric cancer cells

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2023
Though DNMTs inhibitors were widely used in myelodysplastic syndrome and leukaemia, their application in solid tumours has been limited by low response rate and lack of optimal combination strategies.
