Figure Lengend Snippet: Normally, active FAK phosphorylates PDE8A and maintains high basal PDE8A-mediated cAMP hydrolysis. FFSS causes a reduction of FAK activity leading to reduced FAK-mediated PDE8A phosphorylation and, in turn, reduced PDE8A-mediated cAMP breakdown. Thus, FAK inhibition leads to suppressed PDE8A function causing an accumulation of cAMP that is generated by upstream GPCR signaling.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Schematic illustrating how DRx-170 binds c-RAF, displaces PDE8A and exposes c-RAF to surrounding cAMP microenvironment in the context of KRAS MT cancer. De-protection negatively regulates c-RAF activity in a PKA-dependent manner (pS43/pS259 validated, pS233/pS621 untested), promoting c-RAF conformational closure and dissociation from upstream KRAS. This conservative model depicting DRx-170 mechanism of action highlights how DRx-170 attenuates tumourigenesis through facilitating the allosteric inhibition c-RAF.
