Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ionizing radiation (IR) is amongest a promissing method of the cancer therapeutics. We have shown previous that the small-GTPase Arf6 and its downstream signaling factors are frequently overexpressed in different cancers and execute a cancer mesenchymal program, including invasion and metastasis. We have furthermore identified that this pathway is a core to promote IR-resistance of cancer cells. Here, we show a precise mechanism by which the Arf6-based pathway contributes to the cancer IR-resistance, and identified a critical gene mutation therein involved.
