The activation of mitogenic cascades via Ras, c-Raf-1, MEK-1, Erk1/2 is a hall- mark of oncogenic transformation. The cascade is also anti-apoptotic by modulation of Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and BAD function. The impact of MEK-1 on radiation resistance and the role of drugs targeting MEK-1 for the modulation of resistance is unclear.
