CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The high expression level of both mutated and wild-type allele transcripts of c-kit suggests that interactions between spontaneously activated and normal c-kit receptors are important in GIST tumorigenesis. 15062876 2004
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE It seems that KIT may have a significant role in the oncogenesis of mesenchymal tumours of the uterus and ovary. 17367465 2007
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE However, some therapeutic inhibitors of KIT have efficacy in pediatric GIST, suggesting that KIT may, nevertheless, play an important role in oncogenesis. 17909012 2007
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The presence of mutations of BRAF, NRAS, and KIT genes is recognized as playing a role during carcinogenesis. 31274706 2020
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Our previous studies showed the colocalization of KIT with DAPI-stained nuclei in GIST cells without knowing the role of nuclear KIT in GIST tumorigenesis. 31363162 2019
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Moreover, the expression profiling of GISTs may be used as a basic reference to better understand the molecular basis of GISTs tumorigenesis and to identify a novel target molecule for replacing KIT and PDGFRA for a complementary diagnosis and effective curative treatments. 20108043 2010
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The much larger fraction of melanomas that occur on sun-exposed skin is driven primarily by BRAF- or NRAS-activating mutations, but these melanomas exhibit a surprising loss of KIT expression, which raises the question of whether loss of KIT in these tumors facilitates tumorigenesis. 28947418 2017
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The ETV1 transcriptional program is further regulated by activated KIT, which prolongs ETV1 protein stability and cooperates with ETV1 to promote tumorigenesis. 20927104 2010
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Therefore, despite expression of CD117 and PDGFRA, the absence of activating mutations in these tyrosine kinases makes KIT and PDGFRA unlikely candidates of MCC oncogenesis. 23621836 2013
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE C-kit protein expression correlated with activating mutations indicating the pertinent role of the proto-oncogene KIT in the tumorigenesis of OMM. 18066592 2008
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE While the deregulated activation of DNMT1 or KIT has been implicated in lung cancer pathogenesis, whether and how DNMT1 and KIT orchestrate lung tumorigenesis are unclear. 28869603 2017
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The tyrosine kinase receptor KIT plays a major role in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) oncogenesis. 15869870 2005
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE Mutations of proto-oncogene c-kit in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are considered to cause a constitutive activation of KIT responsible for their oncogenesis. 16077968 2005
CUI: C0596263
