NRAS-driven melanoma: A RAF can hide another
Using mouse genetics, we recently showed that BRAF has a critical role in initiation of NRAS-driven melanoma that cannot be compensated by CRAF. In contrast, RAF proteins display compensatory functions in fully established tumors and ARAF can sustain proliferation in the absence of BRAF and CRAF, hi...

description | Using mouse genetics, we recently showed that BRAF has a critical role in initiation of NRAS-driven melanoma that cannot be compensated by CRAF. In contrast, RAF proteins display compensatory functions in fully established tumors and ARAF can sustain proliferation in the absence of BRAF and CRAF, highlighting an addiction to RAF signaling in NRAS-driven melanoma. |
