Source: CGL-CS
Type: oncogene
Family of RAS proteins (KRAS, NRAS, and HRAS) have been well described to cause oncogenic transformation.

- The expression and mutational status of RAS isoforms are critical in several cancers and are generally linked with a poorer prognosis when mutated.
RAS is one of the most frequently activated oncogenic drivers in human cancer. Mutations lock RAS in its GTP-bound active state, making signaling:
-Constitutive
-Growth-factor independent
-Resistant to normal feedback control

Key framing: RAS is a true driver oncogene, not just an amplifier.

Core Oncogenic Pathways Downstream of RAS
RAS sits at the apex of multiple essential signaling cascades:
a. MAPK Pathway (RAF–MEK–ERK)
-Drives proliferation
-Induces cell-cycle genes (Cyclin D, MYC, FOS/AP-1)
-Supports invasion and differentiation blockade

b. PI3K–AKT–mTOR
-Promotes survival and metabolic reprogramming
-Enhances resistance to apoptosis
-Supports protein synthesis and growth

c. RAL-GDS and Others
-Cytoskeletal remodeling
-Vesicle trafficking
-Metastatic behavior

Together, these create a multi-axis growth and survival program.

Prostate Cancer: Alterations in genes such as ERG, SPOP, MYC, androgen receptor (AR), and CHD1, drive PCa progression.
TP53 is the most commonly mutated gene in human cancer.
HH↑, GLI-1↑, SHH↑ P53↓
The loss of p53 and/or other tumor suppressor genes, reduced capacity for DNA repair, the dysfunction of telomerase activity, and changes in the pathways that govern the growth of cells also mediate the progression of Pca.
It has been well documented that Ca2+ influx and MDR1 upregulation are highly associated with GEM metabolism in human pancreatic carcinoma.
Increased Growth factor IGF-1/IGF-1R axis activation mediated by both PI3K/Akt or RAF/MEK/ERK system and AR expression remains important in the development and progression of prostate cancer.
It has been demonstrated that prostate cancer cells are relatively sensitive to heat stress.
Long non-coding RNA MALAT1 has been reported as an oncogenic target in multiple types of cancers, including PC.
