ERK2-regulated TIMP1 Induces Hyperproliferation of K-RasG12D-Transformed Pancreatic Ductal Cells
1 Apr 2013
Abstract excerpt
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) commonly contains a mutation in K-Ras(G12D) and is characterized by a desmoplastic reaction composed of deregulated, proliferating cells embedded in an abnormal extracellular matrix (ECM). Our previous observations imply that inhibiting the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK2) kinase signal pathway reverses a matrix...
