| Abstract | INTRODUCTION: Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with metastatic disease frequently a prominent feature at the time of diagnosis. The role of NSCLC-derived EGFR mutations in cancer cell proliferation and survival has been widely reported, but little is known about the function of these mutations in invasive growth and metastasis. In this study, we sought to evaluate the intrinsic invasive properties of NSCLC cells with differing EGFR status and examine possible therapeutic targets that can abrogate invasive growth. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Collagen-based assays and 3D cell cultures were used to assess morphological features, actin cytoskeleton dynamics and the invasive capacity of NSCLC cell lines with differing EGFR status. The role of the RhoA/ROCK/MYPT1 and EGFR/HER pathways in NSCLC-related invasion was investigated by pharmacological inhibition and RNA interference techniques. RESULTS: We demonstrate a positive correlation between EGFR mutational/amplification status and invasive capacity. Knockdown of wild-type and mutant EGFR leads to depletion of active and total MYPT1 levels. Combined pharmacological inhibition or genetic ablation of ROCK/EGFR suppresses the hallmarks of cancer cells and abrogates the invasive phenotype in EGFR-dependent NSCLC cells. CONCLUSIONS: These observations suggest that combined targeting of the ROCK and EGFR/HER pathways may be a potential therapeutic approach in limiting invasive growth in NSCLC. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
