Mechanisms of FUS1/TUSC2 deficiency in mesothelioma and its tumorigenic transcriptional effects
1 Jan 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: FUS1/TUSC2 is a novel tumor suppressor located in the critical 3p21.3 chromosomal region frequently deleted in multiple cancers. We previously showed that Tusc2-deficient mice display a complex immuno-inflammatory phenotype with a predisposition to cancer. The goal of this study was to analyze possible involvement of TUSC2 in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) - an aggressive inflammatory cancer...
