“…Signaling pathways activated by v-Src and v-Ras (Burgering and Bos, 1995) include those involving phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (Carpenter and Cantley, 1996), protein kinase C (Song et al, 1991), Raf-1 (Blobe et al, 1994) the extracellular regulated kinases (ERK-1 and 2) (Burgering and Bos, 1995) and phospholipase D (PLD) (Song et al, 1991). It has been reported that Raf-1, MEK-1 and ERK1 mediate the signal leading to uPA, uPA receptor, and MMP-9 upregulation Gum et al, 1997). We recently reported that overexpression of uPA in murine mammary adenocarcinoma cells is controlled by a PLD and protein kinase C-dependent pathway (Aguirre Ghiso et al, 1997).…”
