A SUMOylation-defective MITF germline mutation predisposes to melanoma and renal carcinoma

Corine Bertolotto, +98 more
- 01 Dec 2011 - 
TL;DR: A germline missense substitution in MITF (Mi-E318K) is identified that occurred at a significantly higher frequency in genetically enriched patients affected with melanoma, RCC or both cancers, when compared with controls and provides insights into the link between SUMOylation, transcription and cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new member of the ETS family fused to EWS in Ewing tumors

TL;DR: A new member of the ETS family is identified, called FEV, which is fused to EWS in a subset of Ewing tumors, and expression was only detected in adult prostate and small intestine but not in other adult nor in fetal tissues, thus indicating that FEV has a restricted expression pattern.
Journal Article

Interleukin 17, a T-cell-derived cytokine, promotes tumorigenicity of human cervical tumors in nude mice.

TL;DR: It was shown that in vitro, IL-17 increases IL-6 and IL-8 secretion by cervical carcinoma cell lines at both protein and mRNA levels, and behaves like a T-cell-specific cytokine with paradoxical tumor-promoting activity.
