MAPK pathway: uncontrolled growth via the MAPK pathway promotes melanoma cell growth.The pathway provides several sites for potential pharmacologic inhibition.RTK: Receptor tyrosine kinase.

[31] Activation of this pathway results in the phosphorylation of MAPK, which then phosphorylates other factors and kinases, ultimately regulating cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation.

The lab of The Wistar Institute's Jessie Villanueva, Ph.D., has identified a new strategy for attacking treatment-resistant melanoma: inhibiting the gene S6K2. .
