RTK/Ras/MAPK signaling.
Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK)/Ras GTPase/MAP kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways are used repeatedly during metazoan development to control many different biological processes. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, two different RTKs (LET-23/EGFR and EGL-15/FGFR) are known to stimulate LET-60/Ras and a MAPK cascade consisting of the kinases LIN-45/Raf, MEK-2/MEK and MPK-1/ERK. This Ras/MAPK cas...
متن کاملTargeting RTK Signaling Pathways in Cancer
The RAS/MAP kinase and the RAS/PI3K/AKT pathways play a key role in the regulation of proliferation, differentiation and survival. The induction of these pathways depends on Receptor Tyrosine Kinases (RTKs) that are activated upon ligand binding. In cancer, constitutive and aberrant activations of components of those pathways result in increased proliferation, survival and metastasis. For insta...
متن کاملRTK signaling modulates the Dorsal gradient.
The dorsoventral (DV) axis of the Drosophila embryo is patterned by a nuclear gradient of the Rel family transcription factor, Dorsal (Dl), that activates or represses numerous target genes in a region-specific manner. Here, we demonstrate that signaling by receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) reduces nuclear levels and transcriptional activity of Dl, both at the poles and in the mid-body of the emb...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation of Wnt-signaling pathway in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Activation of the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway is a hallmark of a number of solid tumors. We analyzed the regulation of the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and its role in the pathogenesis of the disease. We found that expression of the Wnt inhibitors sFRP1, sFRP2, sFRP4, sFRP5, WIF1, Dkk3, and Hdpr1 was down-regulated due to abnormal promoter methylation in...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation of estrogen signaling in breast cancer
Estrogen signaling is mediated by ERα and ERβ in hormone dependent, breast cancer (BC). Over the last decade the implication of epigenetic pathways in BC tumorigenesis has emerged: cancer-related epigenetic modifications are implicated in both gene expression regulation, and chromosomal instability. In this review, the epigenetic-mediated estrogen signaling, controlling both ER level and ER-tar...
