Enhancing the apo protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 2 crystal soaking strategy through inhibitor-accessible binding sites. [PDF]
Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2) has recently been recognized as a promising target for cancer immunotherapy. Despite extensive structural and functional studies of other protein tyrosine phosphatases, there is limited structural understanding of PTPN2. Currently, there are only five published PTPN2 structures and none are truly

Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2) gene polymorphisms (rs2542151, rs7234029) in Egyptian Behçet's disease patients: a preliminary report. [PDF]
AbstractSingle nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2) gene have been documented to be linked with several autoimmune disorders including Behçet’s disease (BD). PTPN2 SNPs rs2542151 and rs7234029 have been assessed using real-time PCR in 96 BD patients and 50 controls matched by age and gender ...

Protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 2 controls colorectal cancer development [PDF]
Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 2 (PTPN2) recently emerged as a promising cancer immunotherapy target. We set to investigate the functional role of PTPN2 in the pathogenesis of human colorectal carcinoma (CRC) as its role in immune-silent solid tumors is poorly understood.

Tyrosine phosphorylation tunes chemical and thermal sensitivity of TRPV2 ion channel
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) is a multimodal ion channel implicated in diverse physiopathological processes. Its important involvement in immune responses has been suggested such as in the macrophages’ phagocytosis process.

The Cell Adhesion Molecule Necl-4/CADM4 Serves as a Novel Regulator for Contact Inhibition of Cell Movement and Proliferation. [PDF]
Contact inhibition of cell movement and proliferation is critical for proper organogenesis and tissue remodeling. We show here a novel regulatory mechanism for this contact inhibition using cultured vascular endothelial cells.
