Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE In contrast, midkine (MK), a heparin-binding growth factor and cytokine, which induces carcinogenesis and chemoresistance, promotes the development and progression of many malignant tumours by increasing diverse cell functions such as cell proliferation, cell survival and antiapoptotic activities via mainly the activation of phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways. 31634770 2020

CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Midkine (MK) plays important roles in tumorigenesis, however, the biological function of MK and whether MK can be a therapeutic target in osteosarcoma are unclear. 22099874 2012
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Knockdown and blockade of MK suppress tumorigenesis and tumor development. 22726064 2012
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis

CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE We thus suggest that MK-induced cross talk of Notch2/Jak2/Stat3 signaling pathways can regulate cell plasticity and motility contributing to the EMT and later stages of tumorigenesis. 18469519 2008
CUI: C0596263
Disease: Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE While the cause-effect relationship between ALK fusions and malignancies such as ALCL and IMT is very well established, more circumstantial links implicate the involvement of the full-length, normal ALK receptor in the genesis of additional malignancies including glioblastoma, neuroblastoma, breast cancer, and others; in these instances, ALK is believed to foster tumorigenesis following activation by autocrine and/or paracrine growth loops involving the reported ALK ligands, pleiotrophin (PTN) and midkine (MK). 17694547 2008
CUI: C0596263
