The role of STK11/LKB1 in cancer biology: implications for ovarian tumorigenesis and progression
31 Oct 2024
Abstract excerpt
STK11 (serine-threonine kinase 11), also known as LKB1 (liver kinase B1) is a highly conserved master kinase that regulates cellular metabolism and polarity through a complex signaling network involving AMPK and 12 other AMPK-related kinases. Germline mutations in LKB1 have been causatively linked to Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome (PJS), an autosomal dominant hereditary disease with high cancer susceptibility. The...
