SPINOPHILIN: A multiplayer tumor suppressor

open access: yesGenes and Diseases, 2023
SPINOPHILIN (SPN, PPP1R9B or NEURABIN-2) is a multifunctional protein that regulates protein–protein interactions in different cell signaling pathways.

Synaptopodin-2: a potential tumor suppressor

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2023
Initially identified as an actin-binding protein containing a PSD95-DLG-ZO1 Domain (PZD domain), Synaptopodin 2 (SYNPO2) has long been considered a structural protein ubiquitously expressed in muscular tissues.

Integrative Genomic and Transcriptomic Analyses of Tumor Suppressor Genes and Their Role on Tumor Microenvironment and Immunity in Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) are largely classified into lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), which have different therapeutic options according to its molecular profiles and immune checkpoint expression, especially

Synthetic lethal approaches to target cancers with loss of PTEN function

open access: yesGenes and Diseases, 2023
Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) is a tumor suppressor gene and has a role in inhibiting the oncogenic AKT signaling pathway by dephosphorylating phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) into phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2).

Tumor Suppressor Genes [PDF]

open access: yesResearch Journal of Medical Sciences, 2010
Tumour suppressor genes are a class of genes that have a crucial role in the genesis of neoplasia. These genes when transcribed and translated, result in the production of proteins that regulate the cell cycle, repair any DNA mutations and control apoptosis.

An anti-cancer surveillance by the interplay between interferon-beta and retinoblastoma protein RB1

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
Interferon-beta (IFN-β), an extracellular cytokine that initiates signaling pathways for gene regulation, has been demonstrated to function as a tumor suppressor protein through lentiviral gene transduction.

Systematic Analysis of Drug Vulnerabilities Conferred by Tumor Suppressor Loss

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: In addition to oncogene inhibition, targeting tumor suppressor deficiency could provide potential venues for precision cancer medicine. However, the full spectrum of drug vulnerability conferred by tumor suppressor loss remains unclear.

The VHL tumor suppressor at the crossroad of protein folding, aggregation, and cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Oncol
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.

UBE2QL1 is Disrupted by a Constitutional Translocation Associated with Renal Tumor Predisposition and is a Novel Candidate Renal Tumor Suppressor Gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Investigation of rare familial forms of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has led to the identification of genes such as VHL and MET that are also implicated in the pathogenesis of sporadic RCC. In order to identify a novel candidate renal tumor suppressor gene,

Epigenetic downregulation of human disabled homolog 2 switches TGF-beta from a tumor suppressor to a tumor promoter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The cytokine TGF-beta acts as a tumor suppressor in normal epithelial cells and during the early stages of tumorigenesis. During malignant progression, cancer cells can switch their response to TGF-beta and use this cytokine as a potent oncogenic factor;
