Bim Mediates Imatinib-Induced Apoptosis of Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors: Translational Implications
<p>Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are oncogene-addicted cancers driven by activating mutations in the genes encoding receptor tyrosine kinases KIT and PDGFR-α. Imatinib mesylate, a specific inhibitor of KIT and PDGFR-α signaling, delays progression of GIST, but is incapable of achieving …
