Emerging Role of RAB GTPases in Cancer and Human Disease

Cheng, Kwai W., Lahad, John P., Gray, Joseph W., Mills, Gordon B.·2005·Cancer Research

Abstract

Emerging evidence implicates alterations in the RAB small GTPases and their associated regulatory proteins and effectors in multiple human diseases including cancer. We have recently shown that RAB25, located at chromosome 1q22, is amplified at the DNA level and overexpressed at the RNA level in ovarian and breast cancer. These changes correlated with a worsened outcome in both diseases. In addition, enforced expression of RAB25 in both breast and ovarian cancer cells decreased apoptosis and increased proliferation and aggressiveness in vivo, potentially explaining the worsened prognosis. A better understanding of genetic alterations as well as the physiologic and pathophysiologic roles of RAB GTPases may open new opportunities for therapeutic intervention and better outcomes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
