Oncogenic ILK, tumor suppression and all that JNK

Abstract excerpt

In neoplastic cells, proteins exert either pro or anti-tumorigenic functions. However, some proteins exhibit both properties, commonly dependent on specific aberrations occurring in a tumor-specific context. Recently, we demonstrated that the integrin-linked kinase (ILK), generally characterized as an oncogenic protein kinase, functions as a tumor suppressor protein in vitro and in vivo in the aggressive...
