Background: Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers around the world, and a major cause of death. The KRAS and NRAS genes could cause malfunction in signal transduction and cell cycle regulation. Materials and Methods: In this study, the expression level of KRAS and NRAS biomarkers among 50 lung cancer patients in comparison with 50 normal individuals was investigated. Total RNA from blo...
Oncogenic NRAS mutations are frequently identified in human myeloid leukemias. In mice, expression of endogenous oncogenic Nras (Nras(G12D/+)) in hematopoietic cells leads to expansion of myeloid progenitors, increased long-term reconstitution of bone marrow cells, and a chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN). However, acute expression of Nras(G12D/+) in a pure C57BL/6 background does not in...
BACKGROUND Somatic mutations of BRAF or NRAS activating the MAP kinase cell signaling pathway are present in 70% of cutaneous melanomas. The mutant allele frequency of BRAF V600E (M%BRAF) was recently shown to be highly heterogeneous in melanomas. The present study focuses on the NRAS Q61 mutant allele frequency (M%NRAS). METHODS Retrospective quantitative analyze of 104 NRAS mutated melanoma...
BACKGROUND NRAS mutations are the most commonly detected molecular abnormalities in hematologic malignancies, especially in those of myeloid origin. OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine the frequency of NRAS (NRAS(mutant)) mutation; and its prognostic significance in Egyptian children with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). SUBJECT AND METHODS Peripheral blood and bone marrow (BM) samples were ta...
Activating mutations in RAS, predominantly NRAS, are common in myeloid malignancies. Previous studies in animal models have shown that oncogenic NRAS is unable to induce myeloid malignancies effectively, and it was suggested that oncogenic NRAS might only act as a secondary mutation in leukemogenesis. In this study, we examined the leukemogenicity of NRAS using an improved mouse bone marrow tra...
NRAS-mutant melanomas are extremely aggressive and highly resistant to currently available therapeutic modalities. Hence, new targets and therapeutic strategies for NRAS-driven melanomas are needed. As blocking NRAS directly has not been possible thus far, targeting downstream NRAS effectors, such as MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK), is being evaluated as an alternative therapeutic approach. However, bloc...
UNLABELLED Biochemical properties of Ras oncoproteins and their transforming ability strongly support a dominant mechanism of action in tumorigenesis. However, genetic studies unexpectedly suggested that wild-type (WT) Ras exerts tumor suppressor activity. Expressing oncogenic Nras(G12D) in the hematopoietic compartment of mice induces an aggressive myeloproliferative neoplasm that is exacerbat...
Oncogenic NRAS mutations are frequent in melanoma and lead to increased downstream signaling and uncontrolled cell proliferation. Since the direct inhibition of NRAS is not possible yet, modulators of NRAS posttranslational modifications have become an area of interest. Specifically, interfering with NRAS posttranslational palmitoylation/depalmitoylation cycle could disturb proper NRAS localiza...
Background. Most patients with a preoperative diagnosis of thyroid follicular neoplasm (FN) undergo diagnostic surgery to determine whether the nodule is benign or malignant. Point mutations at NRAS codon 61 are the most common mutations observed in FN. However, the clinical significance of NRAS mutation remains unclear. Methods. From 2012 to 2013, 123 consecutive patients undergoing thyroidect...
About one-third of cancers harbor activating mutations in rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (RAS) oncogenes. In melanoma, aberrant neuroblastoma-RAS (NRAS) signaling fuels tumor progression in about 20% of patients. Current therapeutics for NRAS-driven malignancies barely affect overall survival. To date, pathway interference downstream of mutant NRAS seems to be the most promising approach. I...
