BRAFV600E-positive but not BRAFV600E-negative cells were characterised by upregulated ITGAV.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The current results demonstrated that vemurafenib induces the phenotypic switch in melanoma cells depending on their mutational status. It also strengthens the adhesive features of senescent cells, increasing their binding to fibronectin via ITGAV, which may be a part of the phenotypic mode of drug resistance or slow interaction of proliferating cancer cells with the extracellular matrix (ECM). Thus, targeting senescent cells by focal adhesion modulators may be a promising approach to control drug-resistant melanoma cells.</p>","PeriodicalId":7256,"journal":{"name":"Advanced pharmaceutical bulletin","volume":"15 1","pages":"176-185"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12235377/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144599132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
