KIT suppresses BRAFV600E-mutant melanoma by attenuating oncogenic RAS/MAPK signaling

Cancer Research, 2017
The receptor tyrosine kinase KIT promotes survival and migration of melanocytes during development, and excessive KIT activity hyperactivates the RAS/MAPK pathway and can drive formation of melanomas, most notably of rare melanomas that occur on volar ...

Targeting Kinase Suppressor of Ras 1 (KSR1) for Cancer Therapy

Pharmaceutics
Carcinogenesis is driven by aberrant activation of molecular signaling pathways governing cell proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation. Among these, the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK (RAS/MAPK) cascade is one of the most frequently dysregulated oncogenic ...

Advances in Immunological Combination Therapy for Colorectal Cancer

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Review the progress of combined immunotherapy for colorectal cancer. ABSTRACT Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been utilized extensively and shown to be therapeutically beneficial in the treatment of solid tumors in recent years. Nonetheless, considerable heterogeneity in Colorectal cancer (CRC) requires careful consideration.

Insulin Resistance: An Update on Biochemical and Pathophysiological Mechanisms and Impact on Various Diseases

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insulin resistance is the biological phenomenon in which the human body's normal response to the metabolic hormone insulin is compromised. Insulin is a regulator of most of the essential metabolic steps in the body that control energy homoeostasis, so dysregulation leads to multiple diverse human diseases including, most prominently, Type 2 ...
