Here, we demonstrated that MerTK inhibition by treatment with UNC2250 led to increased expression of pro-apoptotic proteins, including Bax, cleaved caspase 3, and PARP, and decreased expression of pro-survival proteins, including Bcl-2, Mcl-1, and Bcl-xL in MCL cells. This evidence concerns the gene MCL1 and mantle cell lymphoma.
