Difference between KRAS and Lung cancer

KRAS vs. Lung cancer

KRAS (K-ras or Ki-ras) is a gene that acts as an on/off switch in cell signalling. Lung cancer, also known as lung carcinoma, is a malignant lung tumor characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung.

Similarities between KRAS and Lung cancer

KRAS and Lung cancer have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adenocarcinoma of the lung, Cell signaling, Epidermal growth factor receptor, Erlotinib, Gefitinib, Monoclonal antibody, Oncogene, Ras subfamily, Signal transduction.

Adenocarcinoma of the lung

Adenocarcinoma of the lung (also known as pulmonary adenocarcinoma) is the most common type of lung cancer, and is characterized by distinct cellular and molecular features including gland and/or duct formation and/or production of significant amounts of mucus.

Cell signaling

Cell signaling (cell signalling in British English) is part of any communication process that governs basic activities of cells and coordinates all cell actions.

Epidermal growth factor receptor

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR; ErbB-1; HER1 in humans) is a transmembrane protein that is a receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family (EGF family) of extracellular protein ligands.

Monoclonal antibody

Monoclonal antibodies (mAb or moAb) are antibodies that are made by identical immune cells that are all clones of a unique parent cell.

Signal transduction

Signal transduction is the process by which a chemical or physical signal is transmitted through a cell as a series of molecular events, most commonly protein phosphorylation catalyzed by protein kinases, which ultimately results in a cellular response.
