まとめ
BRAF阻害剤によるBRAF変異性グリオマの標的化は,抵抗性のためにしばしば失敗する. BRAF阻害剤とSHP2阻害剤を併用すると,RAS- ERKシグナル再活性化を抑制することで,この抵抗を克服し,より持続的な治療戦略を提供します.
科学分野:
- 腫瘍学
- 分子生物学
- ガン治療薬
背景:
- BRAF変異性グリオマはBRAF阻害剤で治療できますが,抵抗性が頻繁に発生します.
- 抵抗はしばしばRAS- ERKシグナル伝達経路の適応的再活性化によって媒介される.
- SHP2はRAS活動の重要なレギュラーであり,抵抗を克服する潜在的な標的です.
研究 の 目的:
- グリオマにおけるBRAF阻害剤耐性におけるSHP2の役割を調査する.
- SHP2阻害剤とBRAF/MEK阻害剤の組み合わせの有効性を評価する.
- 結合抑制が適応RAS- ERK再活性化を克服できるかどうかを判断する.
主な方法:
- ヒトの膠原腫サンプルと細胞系におけるRNAseqとタンパク質発現の分析
- SHP2とBRAF/MEKの結合阻害をBRAF V600Eグリオマ細胞系で試験する
- ヘテロトピック・オーソトピック・モデルと患者由来異種移植 (PDX) を用いたインビオ研究
主要な成果:
- ERK経路の再活性化,しばしばEGFR/ PDGFRβ経由で,BRAF抑制後のヒト膠原腫で観察されました.
- SHP2の阻害はERKの活性化を防止し,腫瘍細胞の死と成長阻害を強めた.
- SHP2とBRAF/MEKの結合抑制は,耐久的なERK抑制につながり, in vitroとin vivoで治療抵抗を克服しました.
結論:
- RAS- ERKシグナリングの再活性化が,膠原腫におけるBRAF阻害剤耐性において極めて重要です.
- SHP2とBRAF/MEKの結合阻害は,抵抗を克服する有望な戦略を提供します.
- SHP2阻害剤は,BRAF変異性膠原腫に対する潜在的な治療補助剤です.

Targeted Cancer Therapies
7.8K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.

Treatment Resistant Cancers
3.4K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

PI3K/mTOR/AKT Signaling Pathway
3.9K
The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates growth, proliferation, and cell survival in response to hormones, growth factors, or nutrient availability. This kinase exists in two structurally and functionally distinct forms: mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2). The first form (mTORC1) is composed of a rapamycin-sensitive Raptor and proline-rich Akt substrate, PRAS40. In contrast, mTORC2 consists of a...

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine
5.1K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...
