Germline Mutation of Bap1 Accelerates Development of Asbestos-Induced Malignant Mesothelioma

TL;DR: Unbiased genetic findings indicate that BAP1 mutation carriers are predisposed to the tumorigenic effects of asbestos and suggest that high penetrance of mesothelioma requires such environmental exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upregulation of DLX5 Promotes Ovarian Cancer Cell Proliferation by Enhancing IRS-2-AKT Signaling

TL;DR: Stable knockdown of DLX5 by lentivirus-mediated transduction of short hairpin RNA resulted in reduced proliferation of ovarian cancer cells due to inhibition of cell cycle progression in connection with the downregulation of cyclins A, B 1, D1, D2, and E, and decreased phosphorylation of AKT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Appl1 Is Dispensable for Mouse Development, and Loss of Appl1 Has Growth Factor-selective Effects on Akt Signaling in Murine Embryonic Fibroblasts

TL;DR: The studies suggest that Appl1 is dispensable for development and only participate in Akt signaling under certain conditions, and it is found that Appl proteins are required for HGF-induced cell survival and migration via activation of Akt.
