Sentences with phrase «specific kinase inhibitor»

Not exact matches

They found that CD44 + / CD24 - / Low cancer stem cells (CSCs) were resistant to conventional chemotherapy but were sensitive to SU9516, which is a specific cyclin - dependent kinase 2 (Cdk2) inhibitor.

The drug is a multi - kinase inhibitor (MKI)-- meaning it targets the specific enzymes that are required for growth in DTC.

Another focus was the differential sensitivity of different mutations towards inhibition with specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors (5).

Here we use a chemical genetics approach using knock - in mice in which either p38alpha or p38beta kinase has been rendered resistant to the effects of specific inhibitors along with p38beta knock - out mice to dissect the biological function of these specific kinase isoforms.

The allosteric inhibitors specific for ABL kinases (which are currently in clinical trials) provide a potentially useful tool for selectively targeting ABL kinases in metastatic breast cancer types with an increase in the ABL pathway signature (58).

These mutant kinases are attractive therapeutic targets, as demonstrated by the efficacy of imatinib in BCR - ABL — positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), 5 as well as in MPD associated with activating alleles involving PDGFRA or PDGFRB.2, 6,7 In addition, activating mutations in the FLT3 receptor tyrosine kinase are the most common genetic event in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and specific inhibitors of the FMS - like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) have entered late - stage clinical trials.8 Although mutations in tyrosine kinases and in other genes have been identified in a subset of MPD and AML, in many cases the genetic events that contribute to the molecular pathogenesis of these diseases remain unknown.

This signal can effectively be inhibited using RIPK2 inhibitors 1 and 2 and regorafenib (a known RIPK2 kinase inhibitor) at 100 nM as determined using RIPK2 phospho - specific antibodies (Fig. 4, A and B).

Insofar as kinase inhibitors interfere with signaling dynamics, and, in turn, signaling dynamics affects inhibitor responses, we investigated associations in this study between cell - specific dynamic signaling pathways and drug sensitivity.

In contrast, loss of adhesion induced the phosphatases Dusp4 and -5 (Map - kinase phosphatases), which are inhibitors of the MAP - kinase signaling pathway, whereas contact inhibition induced the quiescent cell - specific transcription inhibitor E2F4.
