Overexpression of TCF7L1 overrides oncogenic Ras-induced senescence, induces cell migration, and promotes growth of skin squamous cell carcinoma independently of its interaction with β-catenin.
The nuclear protein Sam68 plays a role in the genotoxic stress-initiated "nuclear to cytoplasmic" activation of NF-κB and is involved in the development and survival of colon cancer.
The ability of tumors to respond to nutritional signals is mediated by Salt-inducible kinases, which ensure tumor growth under nutrient-rich conditions including obesity.
A protein called PVRL4 has a central role in a number of cancers that originate in epithelial tissue, and anti-PVRL4 antibodies could be used to treat some of these cancers.
The glial developmental factor, Daam2, promotes glioma tumorigenesis by degrading the VHL tumor suppressor, illustrating how dysregulation of gliogenic factors can impact tumor suppressor activity and promote glioma tumorigenesis.
Palmitoylation recruits the phosphatase SCP1 to endothelial cell membranes where it negatively regulates Akt kinase activity, resulting in suppressed angiogenesis and decreased tumorigenesis.
