hsa05215	prostate cancer	Prostate cancer	The identification of key molecular alterations in prostate-...... The identification of key molecular alterations in prostate-cancer cells implicates carcinogen defenses (GSTP1), growth-factor-signaling pathways (NKX3.1, PTEN, and p27), and androgens (AR) as critical determinants of the phenotype of prostate-cancer cells. Glutathione S-transferases (GSTP1) are detoxifying enzymes that catalyze conjunction of glutathione with harmful, electrophilic molecules, thereby protecting cells from carcinogenic factors. Cells of prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia, devoid of GSTP1, undergo genomic damage mediated by such carcinogens. NKX3.1, PTEN, and p27 regulate the growth and survival of prostate cells in the normal prostate. Inadequate levels of PTEN and NKX3.1 lead to a reduction in p27 levels and to increased proliferation and decreased apoptosis. After therapeutic reduction in the levels of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone, the emergence of androgen-independent prostate cancer has been associated with mutations in the androgen receptor (AR) that permit receptor activation by other ligands, increased expression of androgen receptors accompanying AR amplification, and ligand-independent androgen-receptor activation.

hsa04144	endocytosis	Endocytosis	Endocytosis is a mechanism for cells to remove ligands, nutr...... Endocytosis is a mechanism for cells to remove ligands, nutrients, and plasma membrane (PM) proteins, and lipids from the cell surface, bringing them into the cell interior. Transmembrane proteins entering through clathrin-dependent endocytosis (CDE) have sequences in their cytoplasmic domains that bind to the APs (adaptor-related protein complexes) and enable their rapid removal from the PM. In addition to APs and clathrin, there are numerous accessory proteins including dynamin. Depending on the various proteins that enter the endosome membrane, these cargoes are sorted to distinct destinations. Some cargoes, such as nutrient receptors, are recycled back to the PM. Ubiquitylated membrane proteins, such as activated growth-factor receptors, are sorted into intraluminal vesicles and eventually end up in the lysosome lumen via multivesicular endosomes (MVEs). There are distinct mechanisms of clathrin-independent endocytosis (CIE) depending upon the cargo and the cell type. More...
hsa04010	mapk signaling_pathway	MAPK signaling pathway	The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade is a hig...... The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade is a highly conserved module that is involved in various cellular functions, including cell proliferation, differentiation and migration. Mammals express at least four distinctly regulated groups of MAPKs, extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK)-1/2, Jun amino-terminal kinases (JNK1/2/3), p38 proteins (p38alpha/beta/gamma/delta) and ERK5, that are activated by specific MAPKKs: MEK1/2 for ERK1/2, MKK3/6 for the p38, MKK4/7 (JNKK1/2) for the JNKs, and MEK5 for ERK5. Each MAPKK, however, can be activated by more than one MAPKKK, increasing the complexity and diversity of MAPK signalling. Presumably each MAPKKK confers responsiveness to distinct stimuli. For example, activation of ERK1/2 by growth factors depends on the MAPKKK c-Raf, but other MAPKKKs may activate ERK1/2 in response to pro-inflammatory stimuli. More...

Gene mapped Reactome pathways
REACT_21270	pi3k cascade	The ability of growth factors to protect from apoptosis is p...... The ability of growth factors to protect from apoptosis is primarily due to the activation of the AKT survival pathway. P-I-3-kinase dependent activation of PDK leads to the activation of AKT which in turn affects the activity or expression of pro-apoptotic factors, which contribute to protection from apoptosis. AKT activation also blocks the activity of GSK-3b which could lead to additional antiapoptotic signals. More...
REACT_9396	fgfr ligand_binding_and_activation	FGFs bind and activate alternatively spliced forms of four t...... FGFs bind and activate alternatively spliced forms of four tyrosine kinase FGF receptors in the region between the second and third immunoglobulin domain (known as D2 and D3). The first immunoglobulin domain (D1) and a stretch of acidic residues known as an acid box in the linker between D1 and D2 impart a lower affinity to FGFs compared to receptors in which such regions are removed. FGFRs also contain a short amino acid motif within the second immunoglobulin domain that shares sequence homology with functional motifs present in neural adhesion molecules such as NCAM and N-cadherin. This so called CAM homology domain (CHD) forms a contiguous sequence with the acid box region and is crucial for this mode of activation. Interactions between the neural cell adhesion molecules are important for a number of developmental events and have also been implicated in tumor progression. Although the interaction can be seen over most of the cell surface, it is not seen at points of cell-cell contact where the adhesion molecules accumulate at stable junctions. The FGFR interaction with N-cadherin and NCAM (but not FGF) is absolutely dependant on the presence of the acid box motif. As this motif can be spliced out of all four FGFRs, this suggests a mechanism that can regulate the interaction of the receptor with different ligand classes. From a hormonal point of view, the spatial and temporal expression patterns of FGFs and FGFRs and the ability of specific ligand-receptor pairs to actively signal are important factors regulating FGF activity in a variety of biological processes. FGF signaling activity is regulated by the binding specificity of ligands and receptors and is modulated by extrinsic cofactors such as heparan sulfate proteoglycans. More...
REACT_21272	downstream signaling_of_activated_fgfr	Signaling via FGFRs is mediated via direct recruitment of si...... Signaling via FGFRs is mediated via direct recruitment of signaling proteins that bind to tyrosine auto-phosphorylation sites on the activated receptor and via closely linked docking proteins that become tyrosine phosphorylated in response to FGF-stimulation and form a complex with additional complement of signaling proteins. The activation loop in the catalytic domain of FGFR maintains the PTK domain in an inactive or low activity state. The activation-loop of FGFR1, for instance, contains two tyrosine residues that must be autophosphorylated for maintaining the catalytic domain in an active state. In the autoinhibited configuration, a kinase invariant proline residue at the C-terminal end of the activation loop interferes with substrate binding while allowing access to ATP in the nucleotidebinding site. Iin addition to the catalytic PTK core, the cytoplasmic domain of FGFR contains several regulatory sequences. The juxtamembrane domain of FGFRs is considerably longer than that of other receptor tyrosine kinases. This region contains a highly conserved sequence that serves as a binding site for the phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain of FRS2. A variety of signaling proteins are phosphorylated in response to FGF stimulation, including Shc, phospholipase-C gamma and FRS2 leading to stimulation of intracellular signaling pathways that control cell proliferation, cell differentiation, cell migration, cell survival and cell shape.

Phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) is a substrate of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) and other receptors with tyrosine kinase activity. It is known that the src homology region 2 (SH2 domain) of PLC-gamma and of other signaling molecules (such as GTPase-activating protein and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-associated p85) direct their binding toward tyrosine-autophosphorylated regions of the FGFR. PLC activation leads to phosphatidyl inositol (Pt Ins) hydrolysis, release of intracellular calcium and activation of PKC via recruitment of the SH2 domain of PLC-g to the FGFR. Activated PLC-gamma hydrolyzes Pt Ins P2 to form diacylglygerol (DAG) and Ins P3 which stimulates calcium release and activation of calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinases. More...

Depending on tissue expression, the products of two FRS2 genes, alpha and beta (the latter also known as FRS3, or SNT-2) serve as an essential core upon which a signaling complex consisting of the tyrosine phosphatase Shp2, the adaptor Grb2, and the docking protein GAB1 is formed, leading to the activation of the RAS-MAP kinase and PI-3-kinase/AKT pathways.
