Abstract excerpt
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase in the insulin receptor superfamily. We recently demonstrated that the growth factors pleiotrophin (PTN) and midkine (MK) are ligands for ALK and that upon ALK activation, insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and other substrates are phosphorylated. Here, the role of IRS-1 in ligand-mediated ALK signaling is investigated in interleukin-3...
