Post-translational modification of Ras proteins includes prenylcysteine-directed carboxyl methylation. Because Ras participates in Erk activation by epidermal growth factor (EGF), we tested whether Ras methylation regulates Erk activation. EGF stimulation of Erk was inhibited by AFC (N-acetyl-S-farnesyl-L-cysteine), an inhibitor of methylation, but not AGC (N-acetyl-S-geranyl-L-cysteine), an in...
K-Ras is frequently mutated in human cancers. Mutant (mt) K-Ras can stimulate both oncogenic transformation and apoptosis through activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and AKT pathways and the MST2 pathway, respectively. The biological outcome is determined by the balance and cross talk between these pathways. In colorectal cancer (CRC), a K-Ras mutation is negatively correl...
Ras proteins play important roles in development especially for cell proliferation and differentiation in various organisms. However, their functions in the most insect species are still not clear. We identified three ras cDNAs from the silk worm, Bombyx mori. These sequences corresponded to three Ras of Drosophila melanogaster, but not to three mammalian Ras (H-Ras, K-Ras, N-Ras). Subsequently...
The association of mutant forms of Ras protein with a variety of human cancers has stimulated intense interest in therapies based on inhibiting oncogenic Ras signaling. Attachment of Ras proteins to the plasma membrane is required for effective Ras signaling and is initiated by the enzyme farnesyl protein transferase. We found that in the presence of potent farnesyl protein transferase inhibito...
Ras proteins play a central role in transducing signals that control cell proliferation, differentiation, motility, and survival. The location-specific signaling activity of Ras has been previously shown to be regulated by ubiquitination [1]. However, the molecular machinery that controls Ras ubiquitination has not been defined. Here we demonstrate through biochemical and functional analyses th...
Organ-specific cancers with activated ras oncogenes most often are associated exclusively with only one ras isoform. For example, only H-ras activation is associated with rat mammary cancers. The mechanism underlying this specificity is mostly unknown. We have shown previously that this tissue specificity of Ras isoforms is defined by the Ras protein itself and not by differential gene expressi...
background : â celiac disease (cd) is an immune-mediated inflammation of the small intestine caused by sensitivity to dietary gluten and related proteins in genetically sensitive individuals . recurrent aphthous stomatitis (ras) is an inflammatory condition characterized by painful recurrent, single or multiple ulcerations of the oral mucosa. the association between cd and ras has been evaluat...
Recently, several groups have reported that Ras association domain family 1 (RASSF1A) interacts with Ras and mediates Ras-dependent apoptosis. However, the mechanism by which RASSF1A plays a role as a tumor suppressor in human cancer is unclear. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the RASSF1A methylation and K-ras mutation and their effects on patient's survival in 242 prima...
In the majority of breast cancers, overexpression and hyperactivation of Ras in the tumor microenvironment play significant role in promoting cancer cell growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis. We have previously shown that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression in triple negative breast cancer cells is regulated, at least in part, by SAF-1 (serum amyloid A activating factor 1) tran...
PURPOSE While the dysregulation of specific pathways in cancer influences both treatment response and outcome, few current prognostic markers explicitly consider differential pathway activation. Here we explore this concept, focusing on K-Ras mutations in lung adenocarcinoma (present in 25%-35% of patients). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The effect of K-Ras mutation status on prognostic accuracy of exi...
