Manipulating RKIP reverses the metastatic potential of breast cancer cells [PDF]
Breast cancer is a common tumor type among women, with a high fatality due to metastasis. Metastasis suppressors encode proteins that inhibit the metastatic cascade independent of the primary tumor growth.

Cancer resistance via the downregulation of the tumor suppressors RKIP and PTEN expressions: therapeutic implications [PDF]
The Raf kinase inhibitor protein (RKIP) has been reported to be underexpressed in many cancers and plays a role in the regulation of tumor cells' survival, proliferation, invasion, and metastasis, hence, a tumor suppressor. RKIP also regulates tumor cell

RKIP inhibition in cervical cancer is associated with higher tumor aggressive behavior and resistance to cisplatin therapy. [PDF]
Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in women worldwide, being high-risk group the HPV infected, the leading etiological factor. The raf kinase inhibitory protein (RKIP) has been associated with tumor progression and metastasis in several ...

Diet-induced RKIP downregulation disrupts PC/PE-ER homeostasis to drive MASLD [PDF]
High-fat diet (HFD) is a risk factor for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), yet the molecular pathways that connect dietary fats to liver dysfunction remain unclear.

Two Cysteines in Raf Kinase Inhibitor Protein Make Differential Contributions to Structural Dynamics In Vitro [PDF]
As a scaffolding protein, Raf kinase binding protein (RKIP) is involved in a variety of cellular pathways, including the Raf–MEK–ERK-cascade. It acts as a negative regulator by binding to its partners, making it an attractive target in the development of

RKIP overexpression reduces lung adenocarcinoma aggressiveness and sensitizes cells to EGFR‐targeted therapies [PDF]
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), the most common subtype of non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is often driven by mutations, particularly in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), that guide targeted therapy choices. However, resistance to these treatments
