The human ETV6 protein is a member of the ETS transcription factor family; however, it more often acts to inhibit than stimulate transcription of its target genes.ETV6 protein contains 3 domains: a) the pointed N-terminal (i.e. PNT) domain which forms oligomer partners with itself as well as other transcription factors (e.g. FLI1) and is required for ETV6's transcriptional repressing activity ...
Crizotinib has proven useful in treating certain cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia that are associated with the ETV6-NTRK3 fusion gene while larotrectinib and entrectinib have been useful in treating various cancers (e.g. a metastatic sarcoma, papillary thyroid cancer, non-small-cell lung carcinoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, mammary ...
Secretory carcinoma was once used exclusively as a term for rare, slowly growing breast tumors without reference to their location in the breast. It is now termed mammary secretory carcinoma because secretory carcinoma has sometimes been used to name tumors which develop in non-breast tissues but have the microscopic appearance of, and a critical gene abnormality found in, mammary secretory ...
“There are more than 200 types of cancer, with lots of possible symptoms,” says Dr Julie Sharp, head of health and patient information at CRUK. “It’s impossible to know them all, which is ...
The ETV6-NTRK3 fusion gene and its ETV6-NTRK3 chimeric protein product are also detected in the tumor cells of mammary analogue secretory carcinoma of salivary glands, [20] [21] salivary gland–type carcinomas of the thyroid, [22] and secretory carcinoma of the skin. [12]
Radwah Oda was diagnosed with colon cancer at 30. She shares five symptoms she dismissed, including narrow stools, blood in the stool, pain and fatigue.
Bowel cancer is the fourth most common type of cancer in the UK
Multiple ETS factors have been found to be associated with cancer, such as through gene fusion. For example, the ERG ETS transcription factor is fused to the EWS gene, resulting in a condition called Ewing's sarcoma. [6] The fusion of TEL to the JAK2 protein results in early pre-B acute lymphoid leukaemia. [7]
