Loss of INPP5A in PitNETs disrupts IP3 clearance and drives aberrant PI3K/Akt activation. PKA‐dependent phosphorylation stabilizes MBD2 via 14‐3‐3σ, sustaining transcriptional silencing of INPP5A. MBD2 inhibition sensitizes tumors to standard treatments and limits PitNET growth.

Abstract Nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) are common intracranial tumors that, despite being histologically benign, can exhibit invasive growth, as well as postoperative tumor progression. Surgical resection is the primary treatment of choice; however, residual tumor tissue is frequently observed, with between 30% and 50% of these cases ...
