"In addition to confirming that locostatin prevents association of RKIP with Raf-1 under conditions where RKIP is preincubated with locostatin, we demonstrate in this report that locostatin added at the same time as RKIP to a Raf-1 sample results in disruption of binding of RKIP to Raf-1 when the sample is incubated at 37degreesC for 6 h, but not at 4degreesC for 30 min (XREF_FIG)."

"As stated earlier, RKIP can bind to Raf-1 or MEK, yet not at the same time, and binding to either one is enough to cause downstream inhibition. xref In addition, it was postulated that RKIP may be involved in growth, transformation, and differentiation, xref which are often deregulated in many forms of cancer."

"A yeast two-hybrid assay screen of a human T cell library was used to identify proteins that bound to Raf-1 kinase binding domains. xref The protein identified was designated RKIP, whose sequence was analogous to the human and monkey 23 kDa protein PEBP. xref Using anti-RKIP antibody, antisense RKIP and sense RKIP expression vectors, Yeung et al. discovered that RKIP could bind Raf-1 and MEK-1, and weakly bind to ERK-2, interfering with MEK phosphorylation and activation by Raf-1."

"However, we reported that in addition to GRK2 and Raf-1 binding to PEBP1, the eicosanoid generating enzyme, 15LO1, also binds PEBP1. xref 15LO1, a lipoxygenase that generates 15 hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15s-HETE), is upregulated in response to IL-13 stimulation of HAECs and is increased in asthma in relation to Type-2/eosinophilic processes. xref xref – xref , xref In addition to upregulation of 15LO1 in response to IL-13, stimulation of HAECs with IL-13 promotes binding of 15LO1 to PEBP1, with subsequent release of Raf-1, activation of ERK and increased expression of the airway mucin, MUC5AC. xref Thus, we hypothesized that in the presence of IL-13, 15LO1 would compete with GRK2 for binding to PEBP1, leading to more free GRK2 and greater likelihood for β2AR desensitization (even in the absence of β2 stimulation)."

"Therefore, it is not that surprising that increased Raf-1 kinase activity by loss of RKIP expression was associated with increased nodal and distant metastases in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma specimens and was independent predictor of worsening disease-free survival of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients ( xref )."
