Second AKT: The rise of SGK in cancer signalling

Bruhn, Maressa A., Pearson, Richard B., Hannan, Ross D., Sheppard, Karen E.·2010·Growth Factors

Abstract

The serum and glucocorticoid kinase (SGK) family of serine/threonine kinases consists of three isoforms, SGK-1, SGK-2 and SGK-3. This family of kinases is highly homologous to the AKT kinase family, sharing similar upstream activators and downstream targets. SGKs have been implicated in the regulation of cell growth, proliferation, survival and migration: cellular processes that are dysregulated in cancer. Furthermore, SGKs lie downstream of phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3Kinase) signalling and interact at various levels with RAS/RAF/ERK signalling, two pathways that are involved in promoting tumorigenesis. Recent evidence suggests that mutant PI3Kinase can induce tumorigenesis through an AKT-independent but SGK3-dependent mechanism, thus implicating SGKs as potential players in malignant transformation. Here, we will review the current state of knowledge on the regulation of the SGKs and their role in normal cell physiology and transformation with a particular focus on SGK3.

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.
