Inactivation of von Hippel-Lindau Gene Induces Constitutive Phosphorylation of MET Protein in Clear Cell Renal Carcinoma
1 Apr 2006
Abstract excerpt
It is well known that inactivation of von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene predisposes for human clear cell renal carcinoma (CCRC). However, details about critical roles of VHL inactivation during tumorigenesis are still unknown. MET protein is a tyrosine kinase receptor for hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF), which regulates cell growth, cell morphology, and cell motility. We showed that MET protein...
