Cover: A systems biological approach based on mathematical modeling and biochemical experimentation revealed that MEK inhibitor disrupts the negative feedback loops from ERK to SOS and GAB1 while activates the positive feedback loop composed of GAB1, Ras, and PI3K, which induces the bypass of ERK signal to PI3K signal and ultimately leads to the emergence of resistance to MEK inhibitor. See pages 153-163 by Won et al. for details.
