• W2038877524 abstract "Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a highly metastatic skin tumor. To assess the relevance of the Ras/Raf/MEK/MAP kinase pathway, we analyzed for activating B-Raf mutations and we elucidated the presence of the Raf Kinase Inhibitor Protein (RKIP) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) as well as the phosphorylation status of ERK. All MCC samples were negative for the B-RafV600E mutation. Remarkably, RKIP, which was shown to interfere with the activation of MEK by Raf, was highly expressed in primary as well as in metastatic MCC. Immunohistochemical analysis of the phosphorylation status of ERK revealed in 42 out of 44 samples a complete lack of activated ERK in the tumor cells although ERK is expressed; in the two positive cases phosphorylated ERK was restricted to a minor fraction of the tumor cells. Western blot analysis of three MCC-derived cell lines revealed in one case the pattern present in situ (i.e. high RKIP expression and complete absence of phosphorylated ERK). In summary, our data demonstrate the inactivity of the classical MAP kinase signal transduction pathway in MCC, which seems to be because of lack of activation as well as active deactivation. These findings should be accounted for in future therapeutic approaches for this tumor. Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a highly metastatic skin tumor.
