Rigosertib, via reactive oxygen species (ROS), stimulates cJun N-terminal kinases 1/2 (JNK1/2), which inactivate RAS/RAF signaling and thereby inhibit growth and survival of tumor cells. JNK1/2 are not only regulated by ROS-they in turn can also control ROS production. The prooxidant and cell death function of p66Shc requires phosphorylation by JNK1/2.
