In vitro modeling demonstrated that EML4::NTRK3 confers imatinib resistance, while sensitizing GIST cells to NTRK inhibitors. This first reported instance of an NTRK fusion as a secondary event in GIST progression underscores the importance of testing for NTRK alterations in tumors that have developed resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors to ensure patients are offered all available therapeutic options.
We found that the expression ratio of c-KIT isoforms differs across tissues, and such features are conserved across animal species: GNNK+ and GNSK+ isoforms have high expression ratios in the central nervous system, while GNNK- and GNSK- predominate in other tissues. Furthermore, NOVA2, RBFOX1, RBFOX3, and DYRK1A were suggested to be candidate factors regulating the selection of the alternative 5' splice donor site of KIT.
We tested buloxibutid (C21), a small-molecule AT2R agonist currently in phase II trials for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, in AML PDX models derived from 20 de novo and 6 relapsed AML samples. C21 significantly inhibited AML progression and enhanced the efficacy of chemotherapy, particularly in relapsed AML models.
In patients with CBF-AML, the addition of dasatinib to intensive chemotherapy failed to improve survival outcomes. The addition of dasatinib was associated with an increase in toxicity. This trial was registered at www.
Purinergic inhibitory post-junctional motor responses were greatly attenuated in the GI tracts of crenolanib treated animals compared to vehicle treated controls in response to electric field evoked nerve stimulation. These data provide evidence for a functional role of PDGFRα+ cells in inhibitory neuroeffector motor responses throughout the gastrointestinal tract.
Tumors with low KIT expression exhibited enhanced immune infiltration and significant correlation with immune checkpoint genes, including PDCD1LG2 and PDCD1 (P < .05). This study identifies KIT as a key GMRG in THCA, positioning it as a novel diagnostic biomarker and a potential therapeutic evaluation marker for tumor progression.
Immunohistochemically, the neoplastic cells had diffuse, granular cytoplasmic labelling to anti-KIT antibody. There was no evidence of recurrence in both cases, and no metastatic lesions were observed in Case 1 on necropsy and subsequent histopathological examination, suggesting that, compared with other animals, mast cell tumours have a benign clinical course in Syrian hamsters during the initial follow-up period.
The treatment of Tsc1-KO mice with Imatinib, a specific inhibitor of c-KIT, significantly diminished kidney cystogenesis...In contrast, activation of ERK1/2, AKT, and RSK1, as well as phosphorylation of TSC2, was notably reduced in the kidneys of Tsc1/c-Kit-dKO mice. We propose that c-KIT is a crucial mediator of TSC renal cystogenesis and that its inhibition may constitute a novel approach for the treatment of kidney cysts in TSC.
This spatial organization suggests their involvement in intercellular communication and stromal coordination within the ovarian microenvironment. These findings provide the first ultrastructural and immunohistochemical evidence of telocytes in the human ovarian stroma and highlight the need for further studies to clarify their physiological and pathological roles in ovarian function, including potential morphological and molecular differences among females of different age groups.
CDN inhibits GA by functionally modulating c-Myc/GLUT4/PGC-1α axis mediated glucose uptake and energy metabolism reprogramming, implicating its potential for GA chemotherapy.
