P21‐activated kinase 5 is overexpressed during colorectal cancer progression and regulates colorectal carcinoma cell adhesion and migration
19 Mar 2009
Abstract excerpt
P21-activated kinase 5 (PAK5) is the recently identified member of the group B p21-activated kinase (PAK) family which are effectors of the small GTPase Cdc42 and Rac1, known to regulate cell motility and activate cell-survival signaling pathways. However, overexpression of PAK5 has not been associated with any cancers so far. Interestingly, we found that PAK5 was overexpressed in a variety of colorectal...
