Johns Hopkins scientists pull protein's tail to curtail cancer
Date:12/30/2008
h drugs is a viable alternative to guard against cell overgrowth, the hallmark of cancer, the Hopkins scientists say.
In many tumors, PTEN is simply not present. In others, it's there, but a key enzyme that produces PIP3 is over-activated. The Hopkins team already has shown the first evidence that adding the modified PTEN to cells that lack PTEN not only restores normal enzyme levels but ramps up PTEN activity and quells the cell growth signal.
