KRAS/NF-κB/YY1/miR-489 Signaling Axis Controls Pancreatic Cancer Metastasis
28 Oct 2016
Abstract excerpt
KRAS activation occurring in more than 90% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) drives progression and metastasis, but the underlying mechanisms involved in these processes are still poorly understood. Here, we show how KRAS acts through inflammatory NF-κB signaling to activate the transcription factor YY1, which represses expression of the tumor suppressor gene miR-489. In PDAC cells, repression of...
