Abstract excerpt
PTEN/MMAC1/TEP1 (PTEN) is a tumor suppressor gene that is mutated in a variety of advanced and metastatic cancers, strongly suggests that PTEN alteration is possibly involved in the tumor progression and formation of metastases. However, the roles of PTEN in tumor growth and metastasis and its functional mechanisms are not fully understood. We evaluated the tumor suppressor function of PTEN gene on tumor growth...
