Androgen deprivation-mediated activation of AKT is enhanced in prostate cancer with TMPRSS2:ERG fusion
2024-08-26
Abstract excerpt
The TMPRSS2:ERG gene fusion (T:E fusion) in prostate adenocarcinoma (PCa) puts ERG under the androgen receptor (AR) regulated expression of TMPRSS2. The T:E fusion is frequently associated with PTEN loss, and is highly correlated with decreased expression of INPP4B, both of which may compensate for ERG-mediated suppression of PI3K/AKT signaling. We confirmed in PCa cells and a mouse PCa model that ERG suppresses A...
