Genetic inactivation of the pancreatitis-inducible gene Nupr1 impairs PanIN formation by modulating KrasG12D-induced senescence
6 Jun 2014
Abstract excerpt
Nuclear protein 1 (Nupr1), a small chromatin protein, has a critical role in cancer development, progression and resistance to therapy. Previously, we had demonstrated that Nupr1 cooperates with Kras(G12D) to induce pancreas intraepithelial neoplasias (PanIN) formation and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma development in mice. However, the molecular mechanisms by which Nupr1 influences Kras-mediated preneoplastic...
