Abstract excerpt
The PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS) is a complex disorder caused by germline inactivating mutations of the tumor suppressor gene PTEN. Loss of PTEN function leads to unimpeded phosphatidylinositol-3'-kinase (PI3K) activity and PI3K-driven cell division. Individuals with PHTS develop benign h...
