Inherited susceptibility to lung cancer may be associated with the T790M drug resistance mutation in EGFR

TL;DR: A family with multiple cases of non-small cell lung cancer associated with germline transmission of a specific secondary somatic mutation, EGFR T790M, is described, implicate altered EGFR signaling in genetic susceptibility to lung cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of Rho GTPase Signaling Regulates a Switch between Adipogenesis and Myogenesis

TL;DR: Together, these results identify the Rho GTPase as an essential modulator of IGF-1 signals that direct the adipogenesis-myogenesis cell fate decision.
Journal ArticleDOI

TGF-β IL-6 axis mediates selective and adaptive mechanisms of resistance to molecular targeted therapy in lung cancer

TL;DR: It is argued that both tumor cell-autonomous mechanisms and/or activation of the tumor microenvironment could contribute to primary and acquired erlotinib resistance, and as such, treatments based on EGFR inhibition may not be sufficient for the effective treatment of lung-cancer patients harboring mutant EGFR.
