Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, 2022 Context.— Intestinal neuronal dysplasia type B (IND B) is a complex entity involving the enteric nervous system, clinically manifested with constipation in infancy. Diagnosis has been established by histopathologic analysis of rectal biopsies. However, the criteria for the diagnosis have been questioned and modified,

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2014 The importance of PTEN in cellular function is underscored by the frequency of its deregulation in cancer. PTEN tumor-suppressor activity depends largely on its lipid phosphatase activity, which opposes PI3K/AKT activation. As such, PTEN regulates many cellular processes, including proliferation, survival, energy metabolism, cellular architecture, and ...

Oncogenic microRNA-4534 regulates PTEN pathway in prostate cancer. [PDF]
, 2016 Prostate carcinogenesis involves alterations in several signaling pathways, the most prominent being the PI3K/AKT pathway. This pathway is constitutively active and drives prostate cancer (PCa) progression to advanced metastatic disease. PTEN, a critical

Targeting human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) in phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) deficient melanoma cells for personalized therapy [PDF]
, 2014 Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) loss is associated with genomic instability. APE1 is a key player in DNA base excision repair (BER) and an emerging drug target in cancer.

The prognostic effect of PTEN expression status in colorectal cancer development and evaluation of factors affecting it: MiR-21 and promoter methylation [PDF]
, 2016 Background: PTEN is a tumor suppressor gene which is involved in cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Loss or down-regulation of PTEN plays an important role in human cancers development.

PTEN controls glandular morphogenesis through a juxtamembrane β-Arrestin1/ARHGAP21 scaffolding complex [PDF]
, 2017 PTEN controls three-dimensional (3D) glandular morphogenesis by coupling juxtamembrane signalling to mitotic spindle machinery. While molecular mechanisms remain unclear, PTEN interacts through its C2 membrane-binding domain with the scaffold protein β ...

PTEN: A master regulator of neuronal structure, function, and plasticity. [PDF]
, 2014 PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog on chromosome ten) is a dual protein/lipid phosphatase that dephosphorylates PIP3, thereby inhibiting the AKT/mTOR pathway. This inhibition ultimately decreases protein translation, cell proliferation and cell growth.

Relationship between tumour PTEN/Akt/COX-2 expression, inflammatory response and survival in patients with colorectal cancer [PDF]
, 2016 In patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), local and systemic inflammatory responses have been extensively reported to associate with cancer survival. However, the specific signalling pathways responsible for inflammatory responses are not clear. The PTEN/

Regulatory role of PTEN and microRNA-141 in papillary thyroid cancer
Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2020 The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of microRNA (miR)-141 in lymphatic fluid, lymph node and tumor tissues of patients with papillary thyroid cancers (PTC), and its regulating mechanism on tumor infiltration and invasion.
