(Submitter supplied) Melanoma is the leading cause of skin cancer-related deaths, and current melanoma therapies, including targeted therapies and immunotherapies, benefit only a subset of metastatic melanoma patients due to either intrinsic or acquired resistance. LIM domain kinase 2 (LIMK2) is a serine/threonine kinase that plays an important role in the regulation of actin filament dynamics. Here, we show that LIMK2 is overexpressed in melanoma, and its genetic or pharmacological inhibition impairs melanoma tumor growth and metastasis in both cell culture and mice. more...
