RET (REarranged during Transfection) is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that is activated by a complex made up of a soluble GDNF family ligand (GFL) and a co-receptor that is glycosyl phosphatidylinositol-anchored (GFRalpha).
The enteric nervous system's development depends on RET signaling. The postnatal maintenance of dopaminergic neurons depends on RET, which also controls the development of sympathetic, parasympathetic, motor, and sensory neurons. Additionally, RET functions as a driver oncogene in a number of human cancers. In papillary thyroid, lung, colorectal, pancreatic, and breast cancers, RET has been found to fuse with a number of partner genes. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) for RET, particularly RET-specific inhibitors, show promising results against such cancers.
