abstract：:Metastasis is the main cause of human cancer deaths, and cell motility is one key component of the process of metastasis. The ERK mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway is probably one of the most commonly activated in malignant human cancers. We describe the molecular mechanisms by which ERK MAPK s...
