RAS-MAPK Pathway

Target
RAS-MAPK Pathway
Molecular classification
Signal transduction pathway
01

Overview

The RAS-MAPK pathway is a highly conserved signal transduction cascade that relays extracellular signals from cell surface receptors to the nucleus, regulating key cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, survival, and gene expression. Dysregulation of this pathway is implicated in many cancers and other diseases, making it a major focus for cancer therapy development.

Other names
Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK pathway
