Discoidin domain receptor 2 drives melanoma drug resistance through AXL-dependent phenotype switching
2019-12-03
Abstract excerpt
Anti-BRAF plus anti-MEK are used as first-line treatment of patients with metastatic melanomas harboring BRAF V600E mutation. The main issue with targeted therapy is acquired cellular resistance. In 70% of acquired resistance, melanoma cells switch their phenotype and become more aggressive and invasive. The molecular signature of this phenotype is MITF low, AXL high associated with actin cytoskeleton reorganizat...
