NRAS activates KRAS. 14 / 14
| 13 1

reach
"Importantly, while inactivation of Hras or Nras increased the growth of oncogenic KRAS-driven lung tumors, inactivation of Hras or Nras had no effect on the growth of oncogenic BRAF-driven lung cancer (Figure 6g, Extended Data Figure 10)."

reach
"The pan-RAS degrader led to degradation of KRAS, HRAS, and NRAS, whereas the KRAS degrader only depleted KRAS, demonstrating that bioPROTACs can achieve isoform specificity."

reach
"This rebound, characterized by marked induction of GTP-bound forms of wild-type HRAS and KRAS, which was otherwise abrogated by the knockdown of HRAS and NRAS, leads to MAPK pathway activation in a KRAS G12C-independent way, suggesting that it can not be overcome by escalating the dosage of KRAS G12C inhibitors."

reach
"In contrast to nonresistant cells, NRAS inhibition alone was sufficient to significantly impair proliferation in resistant cells, and NRAS knockdown only slightly and nonsignificantly induced KRAS upregulation."

reach
"Noteably, NRAS knockdown further enhanced inhibition of proliferation in the absence of KRAS (XREF_FIG D)."

reach
"It is also possible that NRAS may activate different signaling pathways to KRAS and HRAS; an idea supported by the observation that NRAS has greater transforming activity than KRAS in experimental models of melanoma."

reach
"But this ras protein is the product of K-ras and H-ras genes rather than N-ras."

reach
"Ras has four subtypes viz; Ha-Ras, N-Ras, KiRas 4A and KiRas 4B of which KiRas strongly activates MAPK pathway whereas HaRas more strongly activates PI3K and Akt pathway."

reach
"Such Raichu-KRas probe has been recently used to document the specific activation of K-Ras but not H-Ras or N-Ras on late endosomes thus identifying a mechanism for intracellular signal propagation [XREF_BIBR]."

reach
"Taken together, these results show that signaling by H-Ras and N-Ras, but not K-Ras, are required to promote PGA 1 -induced apoptosis."

reach
"Our in vitro data demonstrated that the endogenous mut N-Ras (lung) and H-Ras (bladder) also stimulate the promoter as well as mut K-Ras in pancreatic cancer (Figure 3 and Supplementary Table S1A)."

sparser
"Within cancer signaling, RAF1 is another obligate RAS effector whose gene effect was a mixture of activated NRAS and activated KRAS, as reflected by the UMAP embedding ( xref ) and loadings ( xref )."

reach
"This therapeutic concept could also be extended to NRas/BRaf-driven melanomas, BRaf-driven pediatric brain tumors, PTEN-driven prostate cancers and KRas-driven NSCLCs that are all Ras/Raf driven malignancies that rely on autophagy for survival (Lee et al., 2019; Mulcahy Levy et al., 2017; Santanam et al., 2016; Strohecker et al., 2013; Xie et al., 2015)."

reach
"We evaluated the efficiency of Kras deletion and oncogenic Nras activation in Kras ; Nras thymocytes on day 37."
