Stromal cells mediate retinoid-dependent functions essential for renal development. (1/5686)

The essential role of vitamin A and its metabolites, retinoids, in kidney development has been demonstrated in vitamin A deficiency and gene targeting studies. Retinoids signal via nuclear transcription factors belonging to the retinoic acid receptor (RAR) and retinoid X receptor (RXR) families. Inactivation of RARaplpha and RARbeta2 receptors together, but not singly, resulted in renal malformations, suggesting that within a given renal cell type, their concerted function is required for renal morphogenesis. At birth, RARalpha beta2(-) mutants displayed small kidneys, containing few ureteric bud branches, reduced numbers of nephrons and lacking the nephrogenic zone where new nephrons are continuously added. These observations have prompted us to investigate the role of RARalpha and RARbeta2 in renal development in detail. We have found that within the embryonic kidney, RARalpha and RARbeta2 are colocalized in stromal cells, but not in other renal cell types, suggesting that stromal cells mediate retinoid-dependent functions essential for renal development. Analysis of RARalpha beta2(-) mutant kidneys at embryonic stages revealed that nephrons were formed and revealed no changes in the intensity or distribution of molecular markers specific for different metanephric mesenchymal cell types. In contrast the development of the collecting duct system was greatly impaired in RARalpha beta2(-) mutant kidneys. Fewer ureteric bud branches were present, and ureteric bud ends were positioned abnormally, at a distance from the renal capsule. Analysis of genes important for ureteric bud morphogenesis revealed that the proto-oncogene c-ret was downregulated. Our results suggest that RARalpha and RARbeta2 are required for generating stromal cell signals that maintain c-ret expression in the embryonic kidney. Since c-ret signaling is required for ureteric bud morphogenesis, loss of c-ret expression is a likely cause of impaired ureteric bud branching in RARalpha beta2(-) mutants.  (+info)

VEGF is required for growth and survival in neonatal mice. (2/5686)

We employed two independent approaches to inactivate the angiogenic protein VEGF in newborn mice: inducible, Cre-loxP- mediated gene targeting, or administration of mFlt(1-3)-IgG, a soluble VEGF receptor chimeric protein. Partial inhibition of VEGF achieved by inducible gene targeting resulted in increased mortality, stunted body growth and impaired organ development, most notably of the liver. Administration of mFlt(1-3)-IgG, which achieves a higher degree of VEGF inhibition, resulted in nearly complete growth arrest and lethality. Ultrastructural analysis documented alterations in endothelial and other cell types. Histological and biochemical changes consistent with liver and renal failure were observed. Endothelial cells isolated from the liver of mFlt(1-3)-IgG-treated neonates demonstrated an increased apoptotic index, indicating that VEGF is required not only for proliferation but also for survival of endothelial cells. However, such treatment resulted in less significant alterations as the animal matured, and the dependence on VEGF was eventually lost some time after the fourth postnatal week. Administration of mFlt(1-3)-IgG to juvenile mice failed to induce apoptosis in liver endothelial cells. Thus, VEGF is essential for growth and survival in early postnatal life. However, in the fully developed animal, VEGF is likely to be involved primarily in active angiogenesis processes such as corpus luteum development.  (+info)

Expression of the naturally occurring truncated trkB neurotrophin receptor induces outgrowth of filopodia and processes in neuroblastoma cells. (3/5686)

We have investigated the effects of the truncated trkB receptor isoform T1 (trkB.T1) by transient transfection into mouse N2a neuroblastoma cells. We observed that expression of trkB.T1 leads to a striking change in cell morphology characterized by outgrowth of filopodia and processes. A similar morphological response was also observed in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells and NIH3T3 fibroblasts transfected with trkB.T1. N2a cells lack endogenous expression of trkB isoforms, but express barely detectable amounts of its ligands, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin-4 (NT-4). The morphological change was ligand-independent, since addition of exogenous BDNF or NT-4 or blockade of endogenous trkB ligands did not influence this response. Filopodia and process outgrowth was significantly suppressed when full-length trkB.TK+ was cotransfected together with trkB.T1 and this inhibitory effect was blocked by tyrosine kinase inhibitor K252a. Transfection of trkB.T1 deletion mutants showed that the morphological response is dependent on the extracellular, but not the intracellular domain of the receptor. Our results suggest a novel ligand-independent role for truncated trkB in the regulation of cellular morphology.  (+info)

Growth inhibition of breast cancer cells by Grb2 downregulation is correlated with inactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase in EGFR, but not in ErbB2, cells. (4/5686)

Increased breast cancer growth has been associated with increased expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and ErbB2 receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Upon activation, RTKs may transmit their oncogenic signals by binding to the growth factor receptor bound protein-2 (Grb2), which in turn binds to SOS and activates the Ras/Raf/MEK/mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway. Grb2 is important for the transformation of fibroblasts by EGFR and ErbB2; however, whether Grb2 is also important for the proliferation of breast cancer cells expressing these RTKs is unclear. We have used liposomes to deliver nuclease-resistant antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (oligos) specific for the GRB2 mRNA to breast cancer cells. Grb2 protein downregulation could inhibit breast cancer cell growth; the degree of growth inhibition was dependent upon the activation and/or endogenous levels of the RTKs. Grb2 inhibition led to MAP kinase inactivation in EGFR, but not in ErbB2, breast cancer cells, suggesting that different pathways might be used by EGFR and ErbB2 to regulate breast cancer growth.  (+info)

Over-representation of a germline RET sequence variant in patients with sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma and somatic RET codon 918 mutation. (5/5686)

The aetiology of sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma is unknown. About 50% harbour a somatic mutation at codon 918 of RET (M918T). To investigate whether other RET sequence variants may be associated with or predispose to the development of sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma, we analysed genomic DNA from the germline and corresponding tumour from 50 patients to identify RET sequence variants. In one patient, tumour DNA showed a novel somatic 12 bp in-frame deletion in exon 15. More interestingly, we found that the rare polymorphism at codon 836 (c.2439C > T; S836S) occurred at a significantly higher frequency than that in control individuals without sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma (Fisher's exact test, P = 0.03). Further, among the nine evaluable cases with germline c.2439C/T, eight also had the somatic M918T mutation in MTC DNA which was more frequent than in patients with the more common c.2439C/C (89% vs 40%, respectively; Fisher's exact test, P = 0.01). These findings suggest that the rare sequence variant at codon 836 may somehow play a role in the genesis of sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma.  (+info)

Role of alphavbeta3 integrin in the activation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2. (6/5686)

Interaction between integrin alphavbeta3 and extracellular matrix is crucial for endothelial cells sprouting from capillaries and for angiogenesis. Furthermore, integrin-mediated outside-in signals co-operate with growth factor receptors to promote cell proliferation and motility. To determine a potential regulation of angiogenic inducer receptors by the integrin system, we investigated the interaction between alphavbeta3 integrin and tyrosine kinase vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) in human endothelial cells. We report that tyrosine-phosphorylated VEGFR-2 co-immunoprecipitated with beta3 integrin subunit, but not with beta1 or beta5, from cells stimulated with VEGF-A165. VEGFR-2 phosphorylation and mitogenicity induced by VEGF-A165 were enhanced in cells plated on the alphavbeta3 ligand, vitronectin, compared with cells plated on the alpha5beta1 ligand, fibronectin or the alpha2beta1 ligand, collagen. BV4 anti-beta3 integrin mAb, which does not interfere with endothelial cell adhesion to vitronectin, reduced (i) the tyrosine phosphorylation of VEGFR-2; (ii) the activation of downstream transductor phosphoinositide 3-OH kinase; and (iii) biological effects triggered by VEGF-A165. These results indicate a new role for alphavbeta3 integrin in the activation of an in vitro angiogenic program in endothelial cells. Besides being the most important survival system for nascent vessels by regulating cell adhesion to matrix, alphavbeta3 integrin participates in the full activation of VEGFR-2 triggered by VEGF-A, which is an important angiogenic inducer in tumors, inflammation and tissue regeneration.  (+info)

Socs1 binds to multiple signalling proteins and suppresses steel factor-dependent proliferation. (7/5686)

We have identified Socs1 as a downstream component of the Kit receptor tyrosine kinase signalling pathway. We show that the expression of Socs1 mRNA is rapidly increased in primary bone marrow-derived mast cells following exposure to Steel factor, and Socs1 inducibly binds to the Kit receptor tyrosine kinase via its Src homology 2 (SH2) domain. Previous studies have shown that Socs1 suppresses cytokine-mediated differentiation in M1 cells inhibiting Janus family kinases. In contrast, constitutive expression of Socs1 suppresses the mitogenic potential of Kit while maintaining Steel factor-dependent cell survival signals. Unlike Janus kinases, Socs1 does not inhibit the catalytic activity of the Kit tyrosine kinase. In order to define the mechanism by which Socs1-mediated suppression of Kit-dependent mitogenesis occurs, we demonstrate that Socs1 binds to the signalling proteins Grb-2 and the Rho-family guanine nucleotide exchange factors Vav. We show that Grb2 binds Socs1 via its SH3 domains to putative diproline determinants located in the N-terminus of Socs1, and Socs1 binds to the N-terminal regulatory region of Vav. These data suggest that Socs1 is an inducible switch which modulates proliferative signals in favour of cell survival signals and functions as an adaptor protein in receptor tyrosine kinase signalling pathways.  (+info)

Control of growth and differentiation by Drosophila RasGAP, a homolog of p120 Ras-GTPase-activating protein. (8/5686)

Mammalian Ras GTPase-activating protein (GAP), p120 Ras-GAP, has been implicated as both a downregulator and effector of Ras proteins, but its precise role in Ras-mediated signal transduction pathways is unclear. To begin a genetic analysis of the role of p120 Ras-GAP we identified a homolog from the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster through its ability to complement the sterility of a Schizosaccharomyces pombe (fission yeast) gap1 mutant strain. Like its mammalian homolog, Drosophila RasGAP stimulated the intrinsic GTPase activity of normal mammalian H-Ras but not that of the oncogenic Val12 mutant. RasGAP was tyrosine phosphorylated in embryos and its Src homology 2 (SH2) domains could bind in vitro to a small number of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins expressed at various developmental stages. Ectopic expression of RasGAP in the wing imaginal disc reduced the size of the adult wing by up to 45% and suppressed ectopic wing vein formation caused by expression of activated forms of Breathless and Heartless, two Drosophila receptor tyrosine kinases of the fibroblast growth factor receptor family. The in vivo effects of RasGAP overexpression required intact SH2 domains, indicating that intracellular localization of RasGAP through SH2-phosphotyrosine interactions is important for its activity. These results show that RasGAP can function as an inhibitor of signaling pathways mediated by Ras and receptor tyrosine kinases in vivo. Genetic interactions, however, suggested a Ras-independent role for RasGAP in the regulation of growth. The system described here should enable genetic screens to be performed to identify regulators and effectors of p120 Ras-GAP.  (+info)

TY - JOUR. T1 - Up-regulation of soluble Axl and Mer receptor tyrosine kinases negatively correlates with Gas6 in established multiple sclerosis lesions. AU - Weinger, Jason G.. AU - Omari, Kakuri M.. AU - Marsden, Kurt. AU - Raine, Cedric S.. AU - Shafit-Zagardo, Bridget. PY - 2009/7. Y1 - 2009/7. N2 - Multiple sclerosis is a disease that is characterized by inflammation, demyelination, and axonal damage; it ultimately forms gliotic scars and lesions that severely compromise the function of the central nervous system. Evidence has shown previously that altered growth factor receptor signaling contributes to lesion formation, impedes recovery, and plays a role in disease progression. Growth arrest-specific protein 6 (Gas6), the ligand for the TAM receptor tyrosine kinase family, consisting of Tyro3, Axl, and Mer, is important for cell growth, survival, and clearance of debris. In this study, we show that levels of membrane-bound Mer (205 kd), soluble Mer (⌈150 kd), and soluble Axl (80 kd) were ...

Mer receptor tyrosine kinase (Mer) signaling plays a central role in the intrinsic inhibition of the inflammatory response to Tolllike receptor activation. Previously, we found that lung Mer protein expression decreased after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment due to enhanced Mer cleavage. The purpose of the present study was to examine whether pharmacologically restored membrane-bound Mer expression upregulates the Mer signaling pathways and suppresses lung inflammatory responses. Pretreatment with the ADAM17 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase-17) inhibitor TAPI-0 (tumor necrosis factor alpha protease inhibitor-0) reduced LPS-induced production of soluble Mer protein in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, restored membrane-bound Mer expression, and increased Mer activation in alveolar macrophages and lungs after LPS treatment. TAPI-0 also enhanced Mer downstream signaling, including phosphorylation of protein kinase b, focal adhesion kinase, and signal transducer and activator of ...
The RON receptor tyrosine kinase regulates epithelial cell homeostasis and tumorigenesis by transducing multiple signals through its functional domains. The present study was to determine the significance of the entire C-terminus in RON or its variant RON160-mediated activities related to cell motility and tumorigenesis. Analysis of protein phosphorylation revealed that elimination of the entire C-terminus significantly impairs the ligand-dependent or independent RON or RON160 phosphorylation and dimerization. Phosphorylation of downstream signaling proteins such as Erk1/2, AKT, and p38 MAP kinase was also diminished in cells expressing the C-terminus-free RON or RON160. These dysfunctional activities were accompanied with the inability of truncated RON or RON160 to mediate cytoplasmic β-catenin accumulation. Functional analysis further demonstrated that truncation of the C-terminus significantly impairs RON or RON160-mediated cell proliferation, morphological changes, and cellular migration.
ALK tyrosine kinase inhibition has become a mainstay in the clinical management of ALK fusion positive NSCLC patients. Although ALK mutations can reliably predict the likelihood of response to ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) such as crizotinib, they cannot reliably predict response duration or intrinsic/extrinsic therapeutic resistance. To further refine the application of personalized medicine in this indication, this study aimed to identify prognostic proteomic biomarkers in ALK fusion positive NSCLC patients to crizotinib. Twenty-four patients with advanced NSCLC harboring ALK fusion were administered crizotinib in a phase IV trial which included blood sampling prior to treatment. Targeted proteomics of 327 proteins using MRM-MS was used to measure plasma levels at baseline (including pre-treatment and early treatment blood samples) and assess potential clinical association. Patients were categorized by duration of response: long-term responders [PFS ≥ 24 months (n = 7)], normal responders [3
Cancer is one of the most important life-threatening diseases in the world. The current efforts to combat cancer are being focused on molecular-targeted therapies.

The elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines observed in the CNS upon chronic HIV-1 infection suggest that control of the cytokine network is compromised. We have previously demonstrated that RON, which limits macrophage inflammatory activities, is reduced in brains of end-stage HIV-1-infected individuals with evidence of encephalitis (7). In this study, we have used a progressive macaque SIV CNS disease model to show that over time RON expression is decreased in SIV-infected macaques and that this inversely correlates with inflammatory cytokine expression and brain disease. Furthermore, in vitro studies using primary tissue-resident macrophages confirm that RON initially limits HIV-1 transcription, but, over the course of infection, receptor expression is decreased.. The macaque SIV infection model provided an opportunity to explore when RON expression is decreased during infection and whether this correlates with other indicators of inflammation. The macaque model has been well characterized ...

Lung cancer is the leading cause of death by cancer in North America. A decade ago, genomic rearrangements in the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) receptor tyrosine kinase were identified in a subset of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) patients. Soon after, crizotinib, a small molecule ATP-competitive ALK inhibitor was proven to be more effective than chemotherapy in ALK-positive NSCLC patients. Crizotinib and two other ATP-competitive ALK inhibitors, ceritinib and alectinib, are approved for use as a first-line therapy in these patients, where ALK rearrangement is currently diagnosed by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. The clinical success of these three ALK inhibitors has led to the development of next-generation ALK inhibitors with even greater potency and selectivity. However, patients inevitably develop resistance to ALK inhibitors leading to tumor relapse that commonly manifests in the form of brain metastasis. Several new approaches aim to overcome the various mechanisms of
Neuronal migration is a crucial process that allows neurons to reach their correct target location to allow the nervous system to function properly. AP-2α is a transcription factor essential for neural crest cell migration and its mutation results in apoptosis within this cell population, as demonstrated by genetic models. We down-modulated AP-2α expression in GN-11 neurons by RNA interference and observe reduced neuron migration following the activation of a specific genetic programme including the Adhesion Related Kinase (Axl) gene. We prove that Axl is able to coordinate migration per se and by ChIP and promoter analysis we observe that its transcription is directly driven by AP-2α via the binding to one or more functional AP-2α binding sites present in its regulatory region. Analysis of migration in AP-2α null mouse embryo fibroblasts also reveals an essential role for AP-2α in cell movement via the activation of a distinct genetic programme. We show that AP-2α plays an essential role in cell
Graduate Student. Receptor tyrosine kinase RON, besides being expressed on tumor cells is also expressed on host macrophages and epithelial cells.

Neuronal receptor tyrosine kinase that is essentially and transiently expressed in specific regions of the central and peripheral nervous systems and plays an important role in the genesis and differentiation of the nervous system. Transduces signals from ligands at the cell surface, through specific activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Phosphorylates almost exclusively at the first tyrosine of the Y-x-x-x-Y-Y motif. Following activation by ligand, ALK induces tyrosine phosphorylation of CBL, FRS2, IRS1 and SHC1, as well as of the MAP kinases MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1. Acts as a receptor for ligands pleiotrophin (PTN), a secreted growth factor, and midkine (MDK), a PTN-related factor, thus participating in PTN and MDK signal transduction. PTN-binding induces MAPK pathway activation, which is important for the anti-apoptotic signaling of PTN and regulation of cell proliferation. MDK-binding induces phosphorylation of the ALK target insulin receptor substrate (IRS1),

Cirrhosis of the liver is a condition with a high mortality and raising prevalence worldwide. Infectious complications are highly frequent and independent predictors of outcome in patients with cirrhosis - being the leading cause of decompensation, acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) and death. There is no treatment option other than transplantation, applicable at early stages and to only a minority of patients. Susceptibility to infection has been documented in patients with cirrhosis and has been attributed to immuneparesis and monocyte dysfunction in the state of decompensation and liver failure. The underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. Development of targeted immunomodulatory strategies might effectively reduce infectious complications and mortality in cirrhosis. MER receptor tyrosine kinase (MERTK), expressed on monocytes/macrophages, plays a pivotal role in dampening innate immune responses. We have recently discovered and documented the role of MERTK in innate immune ...
In general, tumors exhibit higher tyrosine kinase activity in comparison to normal tissues. This correlation is also reflective in tumor cells versus normal epithelial cells. Receptor tyrosine kinases modulate diverse processes involved in tumor progression and metastasis. Consequently, receptor tyrosine kinases are viewed as attractive targets for molecular therapy. An understanding of the molecular alterations that facilitate tumor progression and metastasis will provide insight into approaches to optimize targeted therapies. In this context, the role of the receptor tyrosine kinase RON in human epithelial cell malignancies is currently under active investigation. We have recently shown that the RON ligand, MSP, promotes the invasive phenotype of MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 cells and also identified the critical regulatory elements that are required for basal RON promoter activity and RON gene expression ( 24). We have followed up those studies in this article and showed that a chemopreventive ...
Describes how Anaplastic Lymphoma Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (ALK) mutation testing is used, when ALK mutation (gene rearrangement) testing is ordered, and what the results of ALK mutation testing might mean
The management of anaplastic lymphoma kinase rearranged (ALK+) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) exemplifies the potential of a highlights the success of the precision medicine approach to cancer careparadigm. The ALK inhibitor crizotinib has demonstrated led to improved outcomes in the first and second line setting, however, toxicities, intracranial activity and acquired resistance necessitated the advent of later generation ALK inhibitors. A large portion of acquired resistance to ALK inhibitors is caused by secondary mutations in the ALK kinase domain. Alectinib is a second generation ALK inhibitor capable of overcoming multiple crizotinib resistant ALK mutations and has demonstrated improved outcomes after crizotinib failure, leading to approval in crizotinib treated ALK+ NSCLC patients. Favorable toxicity profile and improved intracranial activity haves spurred ongoing front line trials and comparisons to other ALK inhibitors. However, important questions regarding comparability to competitor
p,This chapter presents a general approach for the application of spatial intensity distribution analysis (SpIDA) to the pharmacodynamic quantification of receptor tyrosine kinase homodimerization in response to direct ligand activation or transactivation by G-protein-coupled receptors. Intensity histograms are generated from single fluorescence microscopy images. These histograms are then fit with Poissonian distributions to obtain density maps and quantal brightness values of the labeled proteins underlying the images. This approach allows resolving monomer/oligomer protein mixtures within subcellular compartments using conventional confocal laser scanning microscopy. The application of quantitative pharmacological analysis to data obtained using SpIDA provides a universal method for comparing studies between cell lines and receptor systems. In contrast to methods based on resonance energy transfer, SpIDA is suitable not only for use in recombinant systems but also for the characterization of ...

Oncogenic fusions of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) define a subset of human lung adenocarcinoma. The 1st generation ALK inhibitor crizotinib demonstrated impressive clinical benefit in ALK-fusion positive lung cancers and was approved by the FDA for the treatment of ALK-fusion positive NSCLC in 2011. However, as seen with most kinase inhibitors, patients treated with crizotinib eventually develop resistance to therapy. Acquired ALK kinase domain mutations and disease progression in the central nervous system (CNS) are reported as main contributors to patient relapse after ALK inhibitor therapy. Preclinically, crizotinib lacks significant brain penetration and does not potently inhibit activity of ALK kinase domain mutants, so a drug discovery program was initiated aimed to develop a second generation ALK inhibitor that is more potent than existing ALK inhibitors, capable of inhibiting the resistant ALK mutants and penetrating the blood-brain-barrier. These objectives present a considerable ...

We hypothesized that multiple RTKs are coactivated in these tumors and that redundant inputs drive and maintain downstream signaling, thereby limiting the efficacy of therapies targeting single RTKs. Tumor cell lines, xenotransplants, and primary tumors indeed show multiple ...

Drug resistance remains an elusive problem in cancer therapy, particularly with novel targeted therapy approaches. Much work is currently focused upon the development of an increasing arsenal of targeted therapies, towards oncogenic driver genes such as ALK-EML4, to overcome the inevitable resistance that develops as therapies are continued over time. The current clinical paradigm after failure of first line ALK TKI is to administer another drug in the same class. As to which drug however, the answer is uncertain, as clinical evidence is lacking. To address this shortcoming, we evolved resistance in an ALK rearranged non-small cell lung cancer line (H3122) to a panel of 4 ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors used in clinic, and performed a collateral sensitivity analysis to each of the other drugs. We found that all of the ALK inhibitor resistant cell lines displayed a significant cross-resistance to all other ALK inhibitors. To test for the stability of the resistance phenotypes, we evaluated the ...

Ensartinib, also known as X-396, is an orally available small molecule inhibitor of the receptor tyrosine kinase anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, X-396 binds to and inhibits ALK kinase, ALK fusion proteins and ALK point mutation variants. Inhibition of ALK leads to the disruption of ALK-mediated signaling and eventually inhibits tumor cell growth in ALK-expressing tumor cells. ALK belongs to the insulin receptor superfamily and plays an important role in nervous system development.
FUNCTION: [Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] This gene is a member of the echinoderm microtubule associated protein-like family. The encoded WD-repeat protein may be involved in microtubule formation. Abnormal fusion of parts of this gene with portions of the anaplastic lymphoma receptor tyrosine kinase gene, which generates EML4-ALK fusion transcripts, is one of the primary mutations associated with non-small cell lung cancer. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015 ...

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the development of several human cancers and, as a result, is a recognized target for the development of small-molecule inhibitors for the treatment of ALK-positive malignancies. Here, we present the crystal structures of the unphosphorylated human ALK kinase domain in complex with the ATP competitive ligands PHA-E429 and NVP-TAE684. Analysis of these structures provides valuable information concerning the specific characteristics of the ALK active site as well as giving indications about how to obtain selective ALK inhibitors. In addition, the ALK-KD-PHA-E429 structure led to the identification of a potential regulatory mechanism involving a link made between a short helical segment immediately following the DFG motif and an N-terminal two-stranded beta-sheet. Finally, mapping of the activating mutations associated with neuroblastoma onto our structures may explain the roles these residues have in the activation process. ...

Greg Lemke discovered a family of three receptor tyrosine kinases, called TAM receptors, which play a crucial role in telling immune cells how to handle infection from bacteria, viruses and other pathogens, as well as normal cellular debris. His lab showed how problems with the TAM receptors (called Axl, Mer and Tyro3) or their pathways are associated with increased levels of drug-resistant cancer as well as inflammation and autoimmune disease. Understanding how to separate the roles of each receptor could lead to new classes of drugs to fight viruses and bacteria. Aside from immune function, TAM receptors are involved in the healthy development of the nervous system. Lemke also focuses on another major family of receptor tyrosine kinases, called Eph receptors. These are one of the earliest to show up in the developing brain of a fetus and help to guide neuronal connections. Eph receptors help neurons-like those that link the eyes to the brain-know where to go as they grow.. ...
Receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitors are frequently used to treat cancers and the results have been mixed, some of these small molecule drugs are highly successful while others show a more modest response. A high number of studies have been conducted to investigate the signaling mechanisms and corresponding therapeutic influence of RTK inhibitors in order to explore the therapeutic potential of RTK inhibitors. However, most of these studies neglected the potential metabolic impact of RTK inhibitors, which could be highly associated with drug efficacy and adverse effects during treatment. In order to fill these knowledge gaps and improve the therapeutic utilization of RTK inhibitors a large-scale computational simulation/analysis over multiple types of cancers with the treatment responses of RTK inhibitors was performed. The pharmacological data of all eight RTK inhibitor and gene expression profiles of 479 cell lines from The Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia were used. The potential metabolic impact
Mice homozygous for the Axl knockout allele exhibit an overtly normal phenotype - however, in combination with mutations in other receptor tyrosine kinases, this strain may be useful in studies of innate immunity, autoimmunity, germ cell development and apoptosis. Axl is highly expressed by key cellular targets of ZIKA virus (ZIKV), and is proposed to promote viral entry in certain cell types (including non-Axl-expressing cells). Axl inhibition represents a potential approach for antiviral therapies.

Neuroblastoma is a childhood extracranial solid tumour that is associated with a number of genetic changes. Included in these genetic alterations are mutations in the kinase domain of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), which have been found in both somatic and familial neuroblastoma. In order to treat patients accordingly requires characterisation of these mutations in terms of their response to ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Here, we report the identification and characterisation of two novel neuroblastoma ALK mutations (A1099T and R1464STOP), which we have investigated together with several previously reported but uncharacterised ALK mutations (T1087I, D1091N, T1151M, M1166R, F1174I and A1234T). In order to understand the potential role of these ALK mutations in neuroblastoma progression, we have employed cell culture-based systems together with the model organism Drosophila as a readout for ligand-independent activity. Mutation of ALK at position 1174 (F1174I
Anaplastic large cell lymphomas (ALCLs) are CD30-positive T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas broadly segregated into ALK-positive and ALK-negative types. Although ALK-positive ALCLs consistently bear rearrangements of the ALK tyrosine kinase gene, ALK-negative ALCLs are clinically and genetically heterogeneous. About 30% of ALK-negative ALCLs have rearrangements of DUSP22 and have excellent long-term outcomes with standard therapy. To better understand this group of tumors, we evaluated their molecular signature using gene expression profiling. DUSP22-rearranged ALCLs belonged to a distinct subset of ALCLs that lacked expression of genes associated with JAK-STAT3 signaling, a pathway contributing to growth in the majority of ALCLs. Reverse-phase protein array and immunohistochemical studies confirmed the lack of activated STAT3 in DUSP22-rearranged ALCLs. DUSP22-rearranged ALCLs also overexpressed immunogenic cancer-testis antigen (CTA) genes and showed marked DNA hypomethylation by reduced ...
Concentrating on anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), a receptor tyrosine kinase receptor initially defined as a potent oncogenic driver in anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) by means of nucleophosmin (NPM)-ALK fusion protein, using tyrosine kinase inhibitors shows to be always a appealing therapeutic approach for ALK-expressing tumors. not really well covered.

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a receptor type tyrosine kinase that belongs to the insulin receptor superfamily. It is also known as anaplastic lymphoma receptor tyrosine kinase, Tcrz, CD246, and NBLST3. ALK is expressed in the central and peripheral nervous system at late embryonic stage, and plays an important role in brain development. The ALK gene is rearranged, mutated, or amplified in various tumors, including anaplastic large cell lymphomas, neuroblastoma, and non-small cell lung cancer. This monoclonal antibody (clone mAb16-39) elicits tyrosine phosphorylation of ALK in human neuroblastoma (SK-N-SH) cells. It also induces further phosphorylation of signal transfer molecules like insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRD-1).. ...

β-catenin, the critical effector of the Wnt pathway, regulates a number of key processes during development including proliferation, differentiation and cell fate determination, as well as tissue homeostasis in adults. β-catenin is normally localized to the cell adhesion junctions in epithelial cells and its abnormal cytplasmic/nuclear stabilization drives uncontrolled transcription of target genes (including c-jun, cyclin D1, c-myc, survivin, and MMP-7) regulating cell proliferation, survival and cell adhesion.12 In view of its biological importance, it is not surprisingly that deregulation of β-catenin has been linked to the pathogenesis of a number of human cancers, particularly those with an epithelial cell origin.28 Illegitimate activation of β-catenin has also been reported in several types of hematopoietic cancers.19,29-31 Nevertheless, the functional status and biological role of β-catenin have never been investigated in ALK+ALCL. In this study, we found that β-catenin is ...
Background The wounding response relies on tightly regulated crosstalk between recruited fibroblasts and the collagenous extracellular matrix (ECM). Discoidin domain receptor 2 (DDR2) is a tyrosine kinase receptor for fibrillar collagen expressed during pathologic scarring, for example wound healing, arthritis and cancer. We have previously shown that DDR2 phosphorylation drives key wounding responses in skin fibroblasts including proliferation, chemotactic migration and secretion of both metalloproteinases and fibrillar collagen. In this study we compared healing of cutaneous wounds in DDR2+/+ and DDR2-/- mice and analyzed specific fibroblast responses. Results Cutaneous wound healing was significantly delayed in DDR2-/- mice compared with DDR2+/+ animals. Reduced α-smooth muscle actin (αSMA) expression and matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) activity in the DDR2-/- wound extracts indicated defective recruitment of skin fibroblasts. DDR2-/- wounds showed decreased tensile strength during ...

Macrophage stimulating 1 receptor (c-met-related tyrosine kinase), encoded by the MST1R gene, is a cell-surface receptor that binds macrophage-stimulating protein (MSP). It was previously known as RON. The precursor protein is cleaved to generate the mature form, a heterodimer of disulfide-linked alpha and beta subunits. The beta subunit of MST1R/RON is phosphorylated at tyrosine residues upon activation by MSP. MST1R/RON signaling activates the wound healing response by promoting epithelial cell migration, proliferation, and survival at the wound site. MST1R/RON is also known as CDw136, protein-tyrosine kinase 8 (PTK8), c-met-related tyrosine kinase, macrophage-stimulating protein receptor, MSP receptor, p185-Ron, CD136, MST1R variant RON30, MST1R variant RON62, and RON variant E2E3.. ...

Receptor tyrosine kinases play a key role in the communication of cells with their microenvironment. These kinases are involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation and metabolism. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a subfamily of tyrosine kinase receptors with homology to Dictyostelium discoideum protein discoidin I in their extracellular domain, and that are activated by various types of collagen. Expression of this protein is restricted to epithelial cells, particularly in the kidney, lung, gastrointestinal tract, and brain. In addition, it has been shown to be significantly overexpressed in several human tumors. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.

The ALK tyrosine kinase receptor is oncogenically activated in neuroblastoma. Whereas numerous ALK fusion genes have been reported in different malignancies, in neuroblastoma ALK is mainly activated through point mutations. Three hotspot residues (F1174, F1245, and R1275) account for 85% of mutant ALK seen in neuroblastoma. In a cohort of 105 Swedish neuroblastoma cases of all stages, these hotspot regions were re-sequenced (> 5000X). ALK mutations were detected in 16 of 105 patients (range of variant allele fraction: 2.7-60%). Mutations at the F1174 and F1245 hotspot were observed in eleven and three cases respectively. ALK mutations were also detected at the I1171 and L1240 codons in one tumor each. No mutations were detected at R1275. Sanger sequencing could confirm ALK status for all mutated samples with variant allele fraction above 15%. Four of the samples with subclonal ALK mutation fraction below this would have gone undetected relying on Sanger sequencing only. No distinct mutation ...

Introduction Echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4-anaplastic lymphoma kinase (in stem cell-like properties and of lincROR and crizotinib resistance in NSCLC cells are yet to become elucidated. important part of lincROR in EMLCALK+ NSCLC. lincROR may serve as a potential restorative focus on to conquer chemotherapy level of resistance in EMLCALK+ NSCLC. ) is usually a transforming gene and a driver mutation in NSCLC, which has been identified to be closely associated with cancerogenesis and serves as a causative factor in patients with NSCLC.5,6 The resulting fusion protein preserves the complete intracellular portion of ALK, and therefore, NSCLC cells with this fusion protein are highly sensitive to AMD3100 irreversible inhibition ALK tyrosine kinase inhibition, which could restrain tumor proliferation and induce tumor apoptosis.7 Crizotinib, a specific ALK inhibitor, is beneficial for most patients with ALK-positive NSCLC but has no obvious therapeutic effect on a minority of ...
Catalytic domain of the Protein Tyrosine Kinase, Discoidin Domain Receptor 1. Protein Tyrosine Kinase (PTK) family; mammalian Discoidin Domain Receptor 1 (DDR1) and homologs; catalytic (c) domain. The PTKc family is part of a larger superfamily that includes the catalytic domains of other kinases such as protein serine/threonine kinases, RIO kinases, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). PTKs catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to tyrosine (tyr) residues in protein substrates. DDR1 is a member of the DDR subfamily, which are receptor tyr kinases (RTKs) containing an extracellular discoidin homology domain, a transmembrane segment, an extended juxtamembrane region, and an intracellular catalytic domain. The binding of the ligand, collagen, to DDRs results in a slow but sustained receptor activation. DDR1 binds to all collagens tested to date (types I-IV). It is widely expressed in many tissues. It is abundant in the brain and is also found in keratinocytes, colonic mucosa ...

Receptor tyrosine kinases have an individual transmembrane (TM) section thats usually assumed to try out a passive function in ligand-induced dimerization and activation from the receptor. and covalent cross-linking tests. Our findings tension the part of TM website relationships in ErbB receptor function, and perhaps for additional single-spanning membrane protein. Intro Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are transmembrane (TM) glycoproteins that contain a adjustable extracellular N-terminal website, an individual membrane spanning domains, and a big Mdk cytoplasmic portion made up of a juxtamembrane domains, the extremely conserved tyrosine kinase domains, and a C-terminal regulatory area. Biochemical and structural data concur in todays proven fact that ligand binding stimulates monomeric receptor dimerization and trans-autophosphorylation at described tyrosine residues through intrinsic kinase activity (Heldin, 1995 ; Weiss and Schlessinger, 1998 ; Hubbard, 1999 ). Whereas ligand-induced RTK ...
Growth arrest-specific 6, also known as GAS6, is a human gene coding for the Gas6 protein. It is similar to the Protein S with the same domain organization and 43% amino acid identity. It was originally found as a gene upregulated by growth arrested fibroblasts. Gas6 is a gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) domain-containing protein thought to be involved in the stimulation of cell proliferation. Gas6 has been shown to interact with AXL receptor tyrosine kinase, MerTK and TYRO3. The presence of Gla needs a vitamin K-dependent enzymatic reaction that carboxylates the gamma carbon of certain glutamic residues of the protein during its production in the endoplasmic reticulum.

The receptor tyrosine kinase AXL is a pathway that plays a crucial role in metastasis and chemoresistance. Overexpression of AXL has been associated with metastasis, recurrence, and chemoresistance in various cancer including ovarian cancer[16, 17]}. Targeting AXL is an attractive approach because it is overexpressed among patients with epithelial ovarian cancer and strongly associated with advanced stages, high grade cancer and shorter median survival time. AVB-S6-500 is a potent AXL inhibitor by binding to the ligand Gas6. Pre-clinical studies found that AVB-S6-500 was efficacious in ovarian cancer xenograft tumor models. Interventions which would increase the proportion of patients achieving pCR in this patient population could impact survival favorably and are of interest for study ...
Because DDR1 is an RTK, we investigated the role of its kinase activity in invadosome formation. We demonstrated, using nilotinib as an inhibitor as well as blocking antibodies, that DDR1 kinase activity is not necessary for the formation of linear invadosomes. This is in agreement with our previous observations. Indeed, we found that linear invadosomes already appear within 10 min of cell seeding on type I collagen, a kinetic that is not compatible with DDR autophosphorylation, a slow process requiring ,30 min before being detectable (Shrivastava et al., 1997; Vogel et al., 1997; Juin et al., 2012). Interestingly, it was previously shown that the role of DDR1 in promoting collective migration was also independent of its kinase activity (Hidalgo-Carcedo et al., 2011). In our hands, the lack of requirement for c-Src activity, demonstrated with both a pharmacological antagonist and the use of SYF cells, is also in line with these findings because it was shown that c-Src was necessary for the full ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - Ron is a heterodimeric tyrosine kinase receptor activated by the HGF homologue MSP. AU - Gaudino, Giovanni. AU - Follenzi, Antonia. AU - Naldini, Luigi. AU - Collesi, Chiara. AU - Santoro, Massimo. AU - Gallo, Kathleen A.. AU - Godowski, Paul J.. AU - Comoglio, Paolo M.. PY - 1994. Y1 - 1994. N2 - RON, a cDNA homologous to the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor gene (MET), encodes a putative tyrosine kinase. Here we show that the RON gene is expressed in several epithelial tissues as well as in granulocytes and monocytes. The major RON transcript is translated into a glycosylated single chain precursor, cleaved into a 185 kDa heterodimer (p185(RON)) of 35 (α) and 150 kDa (β) disulfide-linked chains, before exposure at the cell surface. The Ron,β-chain displays intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity in vitro, after immunoprecipitation by specific antibodies. In vivo, tyrosine phosphorylation of p185(RON) is induced by stimulation with macrophage stimulating protein (MSP), a ...

Receptor proteins are located within the cell surface membrane, nucleus membrane or other cellular organelle membrane. They can bind to corresponding ligands to initiate cellular signaling pathways. For cell surface receptors, such as receptor tyrosine kinases, interleukin receptors and receptors of growth factors, they are usually subdivided into three domains, extracellular domain, transmembrane domain and intracellular domain. Receptor proteins form the largest family of biological targets. For example, GPCR (G protein coupled receptor) is the target of more than 50% of current drugs. GPCR family members share a unique structure with seven-transmembrane domains. Receptor tyrosine kinases are single transmembrane proteins. They are key regulators for normal cellular processes and also involved in developing many types of cancer. The extracellular part of receptor tyrosine kinases is responsible for binding to growth factors and cytokines. The intracellular domain has kinase activity. Many ...
Developed to target the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutation, Xalkori (crizotinib) was approved for a subset of non-small cell lung cancers. The ALK mutation is also present in more than half of anaplastic large-cel
WASHINGTON & CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Apr 20, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) --ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ARIA) today announced results of preclinical studies on its investigational anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitor - AP26113 - showing potent inhibition of the target protein and of mutant forms that are resistant to the first-generation ALK inhibitor, which currently is in clinical trials in patients with cancer. ARIAD scientists presented these data today at the annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) in Washington, D.C. Genetic studies indicate that abnormal expression of ALK is a key driver of certain types of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and neuroblastomas, as well as anaplastic large cell lymphoma. Since ALK is generally not expressed in normal adult tissues, it represents a highly promising molecular target for cancer therapy. An in vitro assay was used to identify mutations in ALK that confer resistance to the investigational dual Met/ALK inhibitor ...
A standard therapy for breast cancer is the use of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitors. RTKs efficiently target multiple receptors, including the Ron transmembrane receptor, whose activation leads to increased survival, migration, and angiogenesis through signaling pathways such as PI3K/Akt and NF-κB. Ron overexpression is correlated with increased metastasis and poor outcomes in patients. The only ligand for Ron is hepatocyte growth factor-like protein (HGFL), which is an endocrine factor secreted into the circulation from the liver. Published reports demonstrated that ectopic overexpression of HGFL in cancer cells leads to increased metastasis. However, no studies have examined the role of endogenous HGFL in Ron activation during tumor development and metastasis. We sought to test the hypothesis that HGFL is required for Ron receptor activation and mammary tumorigenesis. We utilized mice with mammary-specific Ron overexpression (MMTV-Ron), which develop mammary tumors with 100% ...

N2 - The expression of a number of genes can influence the response rates to chemotherapy while genes encoding receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) determine the response to most targeted cancer therapies currently used in clinics. In this study, we evaluated seven genes known to influence chemotherapeutic response (ERCC1, BRCA1, RRM1, TUBB3, STMN1, TYMS, and TOP2A) and five RTKs (EGFR, ERBB2, PDGFRB, VEGFR1 and VEGFR2) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and esophagus cancer (EC) and the data are compared to gastric cancer (GC) data reported previously. We demonstrate significant differences in the expression ...
FUNCTION: This gene encodes a precursor protein that is proteolytically cleaved to yield an alpha chain and a beta chain which form a membrane-spanning heterodimer. The encoded protein belongs to a family of cell-surface receptor tyrosine kinases involved in signaling from the cell surface to the intracellular environment. The binding of the encoded protein to its ligand, macrophage-stimulating protein, mediates several biological activities including wound healing, tumor immunity, macrophage activation and hematopoiesis as well as cell growth, motility, survival and adhesion. The protein encoded by this gene also functions in early development and the macrophage-mediated inflammatory response. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
