  • Ras may be activated in one sample of bladder cancer; Mek in another; Erk in the third—but in each case, some vital piece of the Ras-Mek-Erk cascade was dysregulated.

  • But the activated ras pathway Ras→ Mek → Erk does not merely cause accelerated cell division; the pathway also intersects with other pathways to enable several other “behaviors” of cancer cells.
