Cancer-associated PTEN mutants act in a dominant-negative manner to suppress PTEN protein function.

open access: yes, 2014
PTEN dysfunction plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of hereditary and sporadic cancers. Here, we show that PTEN homodimerizes and, in this active conformation, exerts lipid phosphatase activity on PtdIns(3,4,5)P3.

In renal cell carcinoma the PTEN splice variant PTEN-Δ shows similar function as the tumor suppressor PTEN itself [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background Loss of PTEN is involved in tumor progression of several tumor entities including renal cell carcinoma (RCC). During the translation process PTEN generates a number of splice variants, including PTEN-Δ.

Pten in mouse vagina

open access: yesOncoscience, 2015
It is well known that the phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted from chromosome 10 (Pten) is a tumor suppressor and is indispensable for epithelial cell homeostasis to prevent tumor formation. Mutations in Pten are frequently found both in sporadic and hereditary cancers, and mice with Pten deletion and/or loss-of-function mutations are highly ...

Bedeutung der PTEN-Splice Variante PTEN-Delta für die Tumorprogression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Das Tumorsuppressorprotein PTEN spielt in vielen verschiedenen Tumorentitäten, wie auch dem Nierenzellkarzinom, eine wichtige Rolle in der Tumorprogression. Während der Translation bildet PTEN mehrere Splice-Varianten aus, unter anderem auch die Variante

The VHL tumor suppressor at the crossroad of protein folding, aggregation, and cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Mutations, environmental stress, and chaperone dysfunction can destabilize pVHL, promoting its conversion from the native folded state into amyloid‐like assemblies. This transition may contribute to protein storage, cell dormancy, survival, and drug resistance.

Molecular landscape of borderline ovarian tumours: A systematic review

open access: yesOpen Medicine
Borderline ovarian tumours (BOTs) show intriguing characteristics distinguishing them from other ovarian tumours. The aim of the systematic review was to analyse the spectrum of molecular changes found in BOTs and discuss their significance in the ...

The Role of PTEN in Neurodevelopment [PDF]

open access: yesComplex Psychiatry, 2019
PTEN is a lipid and protein phosphatase that regulates cell growth and survival. Mutations to PTEN are highly penetrant for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Here, we briefly review the evidence linking PTEN mutations to ASD and the mouse models that have been used to study the role of PTEN in neurodevelopment.

Extracellular vesicle lipidomics liquid biopsy reveals systemic and tumor microenvironment metabolic reprogramming in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicle (EV) lipidomic profiling of plasma and ascites from patients with high‐grade serous ovarian cancer and of ovarian cancer cell lines reveals enrichment of triglycerides (TGs), diacylglycerols (DGs), phosphatidylcholine (PCs), sphingomyelins (SMs), reflecting tumor metabolic reprogramming.
