Title Clinical resistance associated with a novel MAP2K1 mutation in a patient with Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
URL
Abstract Text Patients with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) harbor BRAF V600E and activating mutations of MAP2K1/MEK1 in 50% and 25% of cases, respectively. We evaluated a patient with treatment-refractory LCH for mutations in the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK pathway and identified a novel mutation in the MAP2K1 gene resulting in a p.L98_K104 > Q deletion and predicted to be auto-activating. During treatment with the MEK inhibitor trametinib, the patient's disease showed significant progression. In vitro characterization of the MAP2K1 p.L98_K104 > Q deletion confirmed its effect on cellular activation of the ERK pathway and drug resistance.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

MAP2K1 L98_K104delinsQ indel gain of function MAP2K1 L98_K104delinsQ results in the deletion of seven amino acids in the protein kinase domain of the Map2k1 protein from amino acids 98 to 104, combined with the insertion of a glutamine (Q) at the same site (UniProt.org). L98_K104delinsQ results in increased activation of Map2k1 and elevated phosphorylation of Erk and Akt in culture (PMID: 29768711), and has been demonstrated to confer resistance to Mek inhibitors (PMID: 29768711).
