Among patients with non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), MET exon 14 skipping mutations occur in 3 to 4% and amplifications 1 6%. Capmatinib, a selective inhibitor of the receptor, has shown activity models various types activation.
Focal amplification and activating point mutation of the MET gene are well-characterized oncogenic drivers that confer susceptibility to targeted inhibitors. Recurrent somatic splice site alterations at exon 14 (METex14) result in skipping activation have been characterized, but their full diversity prevalence across tumor types unknown. Here, we report analysis genomic profiles from 38,028 patients identify 221 cases with METex14 mutations (0.6%), including 126 distinct sequence variants....

2-arachnadoyl glycerol (2-AG) is one of the most common endocannabinoid molecules with anti-proliferative, cytotoxic, and pro-proliferative effects on different types tumors. Typically, it induces cell death via cannabinoid receptor 1/2 (CB1/CB2)-linked ceramide production. In breast cancer, counterbalanced by sphingosine-1-phosphate, thus mechanisms 2-AG influence proliferation are poorly understood. We evaluated mechanism anti-proliferative action lysophaosphatidylinositol (LPI) in six...
