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).

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.

Pancreatic cancer patient survival correlates with DNA methylation of pancreas development genes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark associated with regulation of transcription and genome structure. These markers have been investigated in a variety of cancer settings for their utility in differentiating normal tissue from tumor tissue.

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.

Impact of decitabine on immunohistochemistry expression of the putative tumor suppressor genes FHIT, WWOX, FUS1 and PTEN in clinical tumor samples. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundSince tumor suppressor gene function may be lost through hypermethylation, we assessed whether the demethylating agent decitabine could increase tumor suppressor gene expression clinically.

Prediction Of Cancer Possibility By Pattern Recognition And Statistical Study Of Expression Of Gene Level Of Cancer Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The activity of the p53 tumor-suppressor protein has a key role in controlling both cancer and aging: under activity encourages the growth of cancer, and over activity can accelerate the aging process.

Selective inhibitors of nuclear export for the treatment of non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas

open access: yesHaematologica, 2013
The nuclear export protein chromosome maintenance region 1, found to be elevated in non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas, controls localization of critical tumor suppressor proteins.

Tumor-reactive immune cells protect against metastatic tumor and induce immunoediting of indolent but not quiescent tumor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Two major barriers to cancer immunotherapy include tumor-induced immune suppression mediated by myeloid-derived suppressor cells and poor immunogenicity of the tumor-expressing self-antigens.

Pan-Cancer Analysis of lncRNA Regulation Supports Their Targeting of Cancer Genes in Each Tumor Context [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are commonly dys-regulated in tumors, but only a handful are known toplay pathophysiological roles in cancer. We inferredlncRNAs that dysregulate cancer pathways, onco-genes, and tumor suppressors (cancer genes) bymodeling ...

Some facts and thoughts: p73 as a tumor suppressor gene in the network of tumor suppressors

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2007
The question of whether p73 is a tumor suppressor gene, is not yet answered with full confidence. The lack of spontaneous tumor formation in p73 null mice and infrequent p73 mutations seen in a variety of cancers analyzed would straightaway negate its ...
