Colorectal Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE CRC tumors in AA patients also appeared to harbor more mutations of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MAP2K1/MEK1), MPL proto-oncogene (MPL), thrombo-poietin receptor, and neurofibromin 1 (NF1) than those from CC patients. 29599344 2018

Disease: Colorectal Carcinoma
Colorectal Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Wild-type and mutant KRAS/BRAF human CRC cell lines were treated with escalating doses of 5-FU or trifluridine with MEK162 (MEK1/2 inhibitor) for 72 h. Cell viability was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay and synergism expressed by the combination index was calculated using CalcuSyn. 28551618 2017
CUI: C0009402
Disease: Colorectal Carcinoma
Colorectal Carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE The RNF183-IL-8 axis is responsible for the resistance of CRC cells to the MEK1/2 inhibitor trametinib and may serve as a candidate target for combined therapy for CRC. 28756770 2017
CUI: C0009402
Disease: Colorectal Carcinoma
Colorectal Carcinoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE MAP2K1-mutated colorectal carcinoma showed no RAS/RAF mutations. 26660078 2016

Colorectal Carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In addition, the efficacy of OSI-906 combined with the MEK 1/2 inhibitor selumetinib (AZD6244, ARRY-142886) was evaluated in vivo using human colorectal cancer xenograft models. 24045180 2013
CUI: C0009402
Disease: Colorectal Carcinoma
Colorectal Carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Current MEK1-directed pharmacological strategies could thus be exploited, in combination with p38α inhibition, to develop new approaches for CRC treatment. 22579651 2012
CUI: C0009402
Disease: Colorectal Carcinoma
