as a result of his experiments in which steroid PML-RARa fusion receptor gene rearrangement within it(15;17) translocation in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), FGFR-1) receptor induced tumours of the breast glands in two aplastic anemia during the course of testosterone treatment (hormonal tumorigenesis). In the past 2-3 decades, there are at least 30 receptor genes involving in various of oncogenic process. These normal physiologic receptors linked to gene amplification, rearrangement, deletion and activating mutations, which converted receptor to oncogenic (also oncogenic receptor) in development, progressive and pathogenesis of benign and malignant diseases. Receptors included nuclear receptor family members (oncogenic estrogen/estrogen receptor alpha signaling, oncogenic androgen receptor, oncogenic receptor pml/RARa, and GRβ); Oncogenic growth factor receptors (EGF/oncogenic receptor EGFR, Neu oncogenic receptor, insulin receptor substrate 4 IRS4/insulin receptor/c-ros protooncogenic receptor, insulin and IGF-1 and -II/oncogenic IGF-1R, oncogenic PDGFAR, oncogenic TEL/PDGFRB, HGF/HGFR、met oncogenic receptor); Cytokine receptor rc family members (IL-2-BCM fusion,IL-3/oncogenic IL-3Ra,IL-7/oncogenic IL-7R and IL-21R-BCL6 fusion); Cytokine receptors including the βc family (G-CSF/oncogenic CSF3R,oncogenic EPOR), and oncogenic autocrine growth hormone/nuclear GHR and other VEGFR2. Upon ligand binding or external antigen stimuli, mutated growth factor receptors and mutant cytokine receptors including type I cytokine receptor may be activated via ligand binding receptor complex, receptor dimerizes especially receptor homodimerization, and induces transphosphorylation of tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic domains which serves as docking sites for several adaptor molecular harboring SH2 domain or phosphotyrosine binding domain. These adaptor molecules recruit and activate downstream signaling molecules such as Ras/MAPK, phospholipase C-r,JAK-STAT molecules, NF-KB pathways through tyrosine-or serine/threnonine-phosphorylation. Among them, Ras /MAPK/ERK, PI3-K/akt and STAT pathways act as the major oncogenic signaling pathway. Overall, these receptors coupled with their ligands are key importance in human subtle balance in physically regulating multiple cellular processes, for example, in cellular proliferation and differentiation. Oncogenic receptors mutational activation and/or aberrant gene rearrangement are promiscuously interference with normal cell survival, anti-apoptosis and proliferation, and malignant initiation and progression. Others, in a special APL case, oncogenic pml/RARa fusion behave as a potent (constitutive) transcriptional repressor of RAR and retinoic acid signaling, inducing a differentiation blockage at promyelocytic stage which can be overcome with therapeutic doses of 9-cis retinoic acid or ATRA ligand (see in detail model,
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
