Expression profiling of EWS/FLI identifies NKX2.2 as a critical target gene in Ewing's sarcoma.

abstract：:ERK pathway activation in cells expressing wild-type BRAF is a well-reported, clinically-relevant adverse effect of the otherwise impressive response of BRAF(V600E)-mutated melanomas to RAF inhibitors. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Holderfield and colleagues show that RAF autoinhibition underpins this paradox, further...
