Suppression of Deacetylase SIRT1 Mediates Tumor-Suppressive NOTCH Response and Offers a Novel Treatment Option in Metastatic Ewing Sarcoma
3 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
The developmental receptor NOTCH plays an important role in various human cancers as a consequence of oncogenic mutations. Here we describe a novel mechanism of NOTCH-induced tumor suppression involving modulation of the deacetylase SIRT1, providing a rationale for the use of SIRT1 inhibitors to treat cancers where this mechanism is inactivated because of SIRT1 overexpression. In Ewing sarcoma cells, NOTCH...
