9 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
To explain the excess cancer rate in males, several candidates for "escape from X-inactivation tumor-suppressor" (EXITS) were recently identified. In this report we provide direct experimental evidence supporting UTX's role as an EXITS gene. Using a mouse lymphoma model, we show clear dosage effect of UTX copy number during tumorigenesis, which strongly supports the EXITS theory. Importantly, UTX deletion not...
