01

Overview

Recepteur d’Origine Nantais (RON), also known as MST1R, is a receptor tyrosine kinase belonging to the MET proto-oncogene family. It is a heterodimeric protein activated by its ligand, Macrophage Stimulating Protein (MSP), leading to downstream signaling through pathways like PI3K/AKT and MAPK, influencing cell growth, survival, and inflammation. RON is implicated in cancer progression and metastasis, making it a therapeutic target of interest.
