Identification of pAKT as a pharmacodynamic marker for MER kinase in human melanoma G361 cells

Abstract Background The MER signaling pathway represents an attractive therapeutic target for human cancers. Growth arrest–specific protein 6 (GAS6)–induced MER phosphorylation is often unstable and difficult to detect without pervanadate pretreatment in human cancer cells, posing a challenge for th...
