PP2 prevented serum-independent growth of RET/PTC1-transformed NIH3T3 fibroblasts and of TPC1 and FB2, two human papillary thyroid carcinoma cell lines that carry spontaneous RET/PTC1 rearrangements.     ///    PP2 blocked in vivo phosphorylation and signaling of the RET/PTC1 oncoprotein.     ///    "Here, we show that 4-amino-5-(4-chloro-phenyl)-7-(t-butyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine) (PP2), another pyrazolopyrimidine, blocks the enzymatic activity of the isolated RET kinase and RET/PTC1 oncoprotein at IC(50) in the nanomolar range.
