Whole cell lysates (15 µg total protein) from indicated cell lines were resolved by 4-12% Bis-Tris gel electrophoresis, transferred to a PVDF membrane, and probed with Purified anti-c-MET (clone A23013D). Proteins were visualized by chemiluminescence detection using HRP goat anti-mouse IgG (Cat. No. 405306). Direct-Blot™ HRP anti-GAPDH (Cat. No. 607904) was used as a loading control. Western-Ready™ ECL Substrate Premium Kit (Cat. No. 426319) was used as a detection agent. Lane M: Molecular weight marker -

The c-MET protein, also known as the hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR), is a receptor tyrosine kinase that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes. It is known to be involved in embryogenesis, tissue regeneration, and wound healing. c-MET is activated by binding to its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), which triggers a cascade of intracellular signaling pathways such as PI3K/AKT, Ras/MAPK, and Wnt/β-catenin. Regulation of c-MET involves its interaction with other receptor tyrosine kinases like EGFR and RON, as well as its modulation by hypoxia-inducible factors. Aberrant activation of the c-MET/HGF axis, often due to gene mutations, overexpression, or amplification, is associated with the development and progression of various cancers in the liver, lung, and breast. This aberrant activation promotes tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis, making c-MET a significant therapeutic target in oncology.

- Function
-
• Acts as a receptor tyrosine kinase, binding to hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) to initiate signaling cascades.
• Plays a crucial role in embryogenesis, tissue regeneration, and wound healing.
• Involved in cell proliferation, motility, survival, and morphogenesis.
• Promotes angiogenesis and invasive growth in cancer cells. - Interaction
-
• Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF): The primary ligand for c-MET, binding of HGF activates c-MET and triggers downstream signaling pathways such as PI3K/AKT, Ras/MAPK, and Wnt/β-catenin.
• EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor): c-MET can interact with EGFR, enhancing signaling pathways that promote cell proliferation, survival, and migration.
• RON (Recepteur d'Origine Nantais): Another receptor tyrosine kinase that interacts with c-MET, contributing to the regulation of cell motility and invasive growth.
• PI3K/AKT Pathway: c-MET activation leads to the stimulation of the PI3K/AKT pathway, which is crucial for cell survival and growth.
• Ras/MAPK Pathway: This pathway is also activated by c-MET, playing a significant role in cell proliferation and differentiation.
• SRC Family Kinases: c-MET interacts with SRC family kinases, which are involved in the regulation of cell adhesion, migration, and invasion - Ligand/Receptor
