HCT116 (mutant K-RAS) cells reverses the phospho-MEK induction observed after RAF inhibitor treatment, indicating that C-RAF has a major role in signaling to MEK, a result that is in agreement with the above two studies. <br /> | HCT116 (mutant K-RAS) cells reverses the phospho-MEK induction observed after RAF inhibitor treatment, indicating that C-RAF has a major role in signaling to MEK, a result that is in agreement with the above two studies. <br /> | ||
