Expression of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase Protein in Human Breast Cancer
Background & Objectives: Anaplastic lymphoma Kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the genesis of several human cancers. ALK was initially identified because of its involvement in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). ALK is believed to foster tumorigenesis following activation by autocrine and/or paracrine growth loops. Studies reveal that the presence of anti-ALK antibodies ...
متن کاملProtein kinase cross-talk: membrane targeting of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase by protein kinase C.
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (betaARK) is the prototypical member of the family of cytosolic kinases that phosphorylate guanine nucleotide binding-protein-coupled receptors and thereby trigger uncoupling between receptors and guanine nucleotide binding proteins. Herein we show that this kinase is subject to phosphorylation and regulation by protein kinase C (PKC). In cell lines stably ex...
متن کاملTargeting eNOS in pancreatic cancer.
Mortality from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cancer (PDAC) is among the highest of any cancer and frontline therapy has changed little in years. Activation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS, NOS3, or NOS III) has been implicated recently in the pathogenesis of PDACs. In this study, we used genetically engineered mouse and human xenograft models to evaluate the consequences of target...
متن کاملProtein Kinase C Iota Regulates Pancreatic Acinar-to-Ductal Metaplasia
Pancreatic acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM) is associated with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer and is considered a precursor of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Transgenic expression of transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-α) or K-ras(G12D) in mouse pancreatic epithelium induces ADM in vivo. Protein kinase C iota (PKCι) is highly expressed in human pancreatic cancer and is required fo...
متن کامل1,2-Diacylglycerol, protein kinase C, and pancreatic enzyme secretion.
To determine the role of 1,2-diacylglycerol (1,2-DAG) and protein kinase C in pancreatic enzyme secretion, we measured the effect of various pancreatic secretagogues on the cellular mass of 1,2-DAG and amylase release in dispersed pancreatic acini from the guinea pig. In addition, we measured the effect of a recently described protein kinase C inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpipera...
