Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18165268 besides MYCN and ALK, other genes proximal and distal to MYCN are highly expressed in neuroblastoma
16604305 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
17922009 Oncogenic NPM1-ALK contains the ALK catalytic domain plus NPM1 oligomerization motif and mediates malignant cell transformation by epigenetic silencing of signal transducer and activator of transcription STAT5A in T-cell anaplastic large cell lymphomas.
18166835 ALK is part of a fusion protein linked to histological characteristics in a subset of lung neoplasms.
18097461 Translocations or deregulated expression of ALK contribute to oncogenesis and genetic or pharmacological tools, aimed at neutralizing its activity in anaplastic lymphoma [REVIEW]
17904822 Pleiotrophin failed to activate anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) in neuroblastoma/glioblastoma cells expressing this receptor. ALK is still an orphan receptor in vertebrates.
17690253 JunB is a critical target of mTOR and is translationally regulated in NPM-ALK-positive lymphomas.
17537995 identify splicing factor as a novel nucleophosmin 1/anaplastic lymphoma kinase-binding protein and substrate
17681947 phosphorylation of ALK in PTN-stimulated cells is mediated through the PTN/RPTPbeta/zeta signaling pathway
15226403 ALK receptor tyrosine kinase has roles promoting cell growth and neurite outgrowth
17274988 A functional role for Shc and likely FRS2 in ALK-dependant MAP-kinase activation and neuronal differentiation of PC12 cells.
11877285 ALK as a novel lymphoma-associated tumor antigen: identification of 2 HLA-A2.1-restricted CD8+ T-cell epitopes.
12122009 midkine binds to ALK and has a role in signal transduction for cell growth and survival
15886198 analysis of differentiation of PC12 cells and human embryonic kidney 293 cells transfected with ALK shows absence of agonist activity of pleiotrophin
17077326 molecular signature of ALK- anaplastic large-cell lymphoma included overexpression of CCR7, CNTFR, IL22, and IL21 genes
16651537 can be adapted for the identification of known and unknown translocation partners of chimeric ALK fusion proteins involved in oncogenesis
15933425 CONCLUSIONS: ALK-ALCL arising in the skin represents a single disease with a broad spectrum of morphology; clinicians and pathologists should be aware of this neutrophil-rich (NR) variant with aggressive clinical presentation.
15583856 ALK has roles in oncogenesis of haematopoietic and non-haematopoietic tumors [review]
16153455 We conclude that Jak3 activation is predominantly restricted to ALK-positive ALCL tumors.
16161041 Genomic PCR and subsequent sequencing showed that the breakpoints were located in intron 23 of SEC31-like 1 protein-transport protein and intron 20 of ALK
15161657 STAT3 directly contributes to the high level of TIMP1 expression in anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
15713979 Although 9 of 36 patients with cutaneous CD30(+) lymphoproliferative diseases had progression of their disease, neither mutations of the p53 gene nor ALK immunoreactivity were found in any of these biopsies.
15928040 ALK-mediated alphaDGK activation is dependent on p60src tyrosine kinase, with which alphaDGK forms a complex; alphaDGK activation is involved in the control of ALK-mediated mitogenic properties.
11809760 Pleiotrophin signaling through anaplastic lymphoma kinase is rate-limiting for glioblastoma growth
12763927 novel fusion created by the ALK gene on chromosome 2p23 and NPM on 5q35 or other variant translocation partners in a rare variant of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
14962911 FOXO3a is a barrier to hematopoietic transformation that is overcome by phosphorylation and cytoplasmic relocalization induced by the expression of NPM-ALK
14563642 Src-kinases, particularly pp60(c-src), associate with and are activated by NPM-ALK expression in various cells, and in cell lines established from patients with large cell lymphoma
12213716 co-expression of c-Myc and ALK was seen in tumor cells of ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphomas; C-Myc may be a downstream target of ALK signaling
17071493 CD26 and cell surface adenosine deaminase are selectively expressed on ALK-positive, but not on ALK-negative, anaplastic large cell lymphoma and Hodgkin's lymphoma
12185581 ALK-ShcC signal activation, possibly caused by co-amplification with the N-myc gene, might give additional effects on malignant tumor progression of neuroblastoma.ShcC is a potent substrate of the activated ALK kinase.
16623783 Pseudosarcomatous myofibroblastic proliferations of the genitourinary tract may show ALK immunopositivity but do not show consistent ALK rearrangement by fluorescent in situ hybridization.
16766651 NPM/ALK-carrying T cell lymphoma (ALK+TCL) cells secrete IL-10 and TGF-beta and express FoxP3, indicating their T regulatory (Treg) cell phenotype.
17490616 This study thus supports the possibility that activated ALK may be important in human breast cancers and potentially activated either through the PTN/RPTPbeta/zeta signaling pathway.
12036886 ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma had significantly higher levels of caspase 3, while high expression of the antiapoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and PI9 was almost completely restricted to ALK-negative cases.
12800156 In a case of anaplastic large cell lymphoma, ALK is fused to a portion of non-muscle myosin heavy chain gene, MYH9, localized 6 bp downstream of MSN-ALK in the same exonic sequence, resulting in an in-frame fusion of the two partner proteins.
12112524 Novel fusion partners CARS and KIAA1618 (ALO17) have been detected with variant rearrangements of ALK in anaplastic large-cell lymphoma and inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor cases.

15004538 High dose therapy and stem cell transplantation does not produce long-term disease free survival in patients with recurrent chemotherapy-sensitive ALK-negative large cell lymphoma.
16825495 Loss of SHP1 enhances JAK3/STAT3 signaling and decreases proteosome degradation of JAK3 and NPM-ALK in ALK+ anaplastic large-cell lymphoma.
16878150 recruitment of insulin receptor substrate-1 to activated ALK and the activation of NF-kappaB are essential for the autocrine growth and survival signaling of midkine
16880530 ALK has a proapoptotic activity in the absence of ligand, whereas it is antiapoptotic in the presence of its ligand and when the kinase is intrinsically activated.
