Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE We have observed highly elevated levels of all four isoforms of p38 MAPK in serum of HNSCC patients compared to the control group. 29747487 2019
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE TCIP-H SCCHN tumors were associated with the MAPK/ERK, JAK/STAT and mTOR/AKT signaling pathways, and were enriched in CASP8, EP300, EPHA2, HRAS mutations, CD274, PDCD1LG2, JAK2 amplifications. 31422218 2019
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Finally, we demonstrated that overexpressed PRRX1 was closely correlated with miR-642b-3p downregulation and the upregulation of TGF-β2 and p38 in a xenograft model of HNSCC. 30622052 2019
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE This study demonstrated that p38 MAPK activation may play a role in therapeutic resistance and disease relapse in HNSCC by maintenance of CSCs phenotype. 29575240 2018
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE Rebound in the ERK and Akt pathways in HNSCC cells was accompanied by increased FGFR3 signaling after selumetinib treatment. 30343534 2018
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE HRAS mutant cells are resistant to PI3K inhibition and our findings suggest the involvement of a signalling intersection of the MAPK and PI3K pathways at the level of ERK-TSC2, leading to persistent mTOR activity. mTOR inhibition alone or in combination with MAPK pathway inhibition may be a promising therapeutic strategy for this subset of HNSCC tumors. 30115483 2018
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE IL-8 promotes inflammatory mediators and stimulates activation of p38 MAPK/ERK-NF-κB pathway and reduction of JNK in HNSCC. 28915597 2017
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE In conclusion, PD-L1 expression in HNSCC may be altered during cisplatin treatment, activating the MAPK/ERK kinase pathway. 29228662 2017
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Association analyses between the 800 candidate SNPs (covering 82 genes) and pain in a patient cohort of 1368 patients with HNSCC (206 patients with severe pain vs. 1162 with non-severe pain) showed the highest significance for MAPK1/ERK2, a gene belonging to the MAP kinase family (rs8136867, p value = 8.92 × 10(-4); odds ratio [OR] = 1.33, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.13-1.58). 26872611 2016
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE p38 inhibitor treated and p38 shRNA HNSCC cell lines demonstrate a significant upregulation in E-cadherin mRNA and a decrease in the mRNA expression of Snail. p38 binds to and stabilizes p38IP, a subunit of histone SPT3-TAF9-GCN5 acetyltransferase (STAGA), resulting in enhanced transcription of Snail. p38 shRNA HNSCC cell lines show a less invasive phenotype in a spheroid model. 27531877 2016
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 GeneticVariation disease CLINVAR Identifying recurrent mutations in cancer reveals widespread lineage diversity and mutational specificity. 26619011 2016
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE We demonstrated increased AREG secretion in HNSCC cell lines harboring endogenous or exogenous MAPK1E322K compared to wild type MAPK1. 27004400 2016
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE One potential therapeutic target for HNSCC is the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK cascade, which is one of the major signaling pathways for HNSCC cell survival. 26053277 2015
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE Given that p38 inhibitors are in clinical use for inflammatory disorders, GALR2/p38-mediated cytokine secretion may be an excellent target for new adjuvant therapy in SCCHN. 24568968 2014
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Since our previous data determined p38 MAPK to be a potent regulator of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 expression in permanent head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines, we investigated the influence of this pathway on STAT3 and STAT1. 22110204 2011
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE Here we explored the use of an intercomplementing anthrax toxin that requires combined cell surface uPA and MMP activities for cellular intoxication and specifically targets the ERK/MAPK pathway for the treatment of HNSCC. 21655226 2011
Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE We found that the blocking activation of ERK and/or p38 could reverse the celecoxib-induced cell growth inhibition by 50-80% in HNSCC cell lines, but it was not tested in cancer cells of other types. 20717005 2010
