TLDR
SHP2 has emerged as an attractive target for therapeutic targeting in hematological malignancies for its cell autonomous and microenvironmental effects, however a better understanding of the role of SHP2 in different hematopoietic lineages and its crosstalk with signaling pathways activated by other genetic lesions is required before the promise is realized in the clinic.
Abstract
Purpose of reviewSH2 domain-containing tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP2), encoded by PTPN11 plays an important role in regulating signaling from cell surface receptor tyrosine kinases during normal development as well as oncogenesis. Herein we review recently discovered roles of SHP2 in normal and aberr

Targeting SHP-1, 2 and SHIP Pathways: A Novel Strategy for Cancer Treatment?

TL;DR: Novel techniques have been employed to synthesise new inhibitors that specifically attenuate the PTP-dependent signaling inside the cell and amongst them; some are already in clinical development which are discussed in this review.

SHP2 promotes proliferation of breast cancer cells through regulating Cyclin D1 stability via the PI3K/AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway

TL;DR: The mechanism through which tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 regulates breast cancer proliferation is uncovered and may therefore serve as a therapeutic target for breast cancer.

Identifying recurrent mutations in cancer reveals widespread lineage diversity and mutational specificity

TL;DR: A statistical algorithm is developed to identify recurrently mutated residues in tumor samples and finds that half of all human tumors possess one or more mutational hotspots with widespread lineage-, position- and mutant allele–specific differences, many of which are likely functional.

Diversity and Functional Consequences of Germline and Somatic PTPN11 Mutations in Human Disease

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that NS-causative mutations have less potency for promoting SHP-2 gain of function than do leukemia-associated ones and that the recurrent LS-causing Y279C and T468M amino acid substitutions engender loss of SHp-2 catalytic activity, identifying a previously unrecognized behavior for this class of missense PTPN11 mutations.

Normal and Leukemic Stem Cell Niches: Insights and Therapeutic Opportunities

TL;DR: How genetic changes in stromal cells and leukemia-induced BM niche remodeling contribute to blood malignancies are described and how these findings can be applied to non-cell-autonomous therapies targeting the LSC niche are discussed.
