RAS Mutations Affect Tumor Necrosis Factor-Induced Apoptosis in Colon Carcinoma Cells via ERK-Modulatory Negative and Positive Feedback Circuits Along with Non-ERK Pathway Effects

RAS Mutations Affect Tumor Necrosis Factor-Induced Apoptosis in Colon Carcinoma Cells via ERK-Modulatory Negative and Positive Feedback Circuits Along with Non-ERK Pathway Effects

More than 40% of colon cancers have a mutation in K-RAS or N-RAS, GTPases that operate as central hubs for multiple key signaling pathways within the cell. Utilizing an isogenic panel of colon carcinoma cells with K-RAS or N-RAS variations, we observed differences in tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα)-i...
