PEA-15 Induces Autophagy in Human Ovarian Cancer Cells and Is Associated with Prolonged Overall Survival
14 Nov 2008
Abstract excerpt
Phospho-enriched protein in astrocytes (PEA-15) is a 15-kDa phosphoprotein that slows cell proliferation by binding to and sequestering extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in the cytoplasm, thereby inhibiting ERK-dependent transcription and proliferation. In previous studies of E1A human gene therapy for ovarian cancer, we discovered that PEA-15 induced the antitumor effect of E1A by sequestering...
