| 1 | Receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatases in cancertype protein tyrosine phosphatases in cancer显示文摘Protein tyrosine phosphatases(PTPs) play an important role in regulating cell signaling events in coordination with tyrosine kinases to control cell proliferation, apoptosis, survival, migration, and invasion. Receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatases(PTPRs) are a subgroup of PTPs that share a transmembrane domain with resulting similarities in function and target specificity. In this review, we summarize genetic and epigenetic alterations including mutation, deletion, amplification, and promoter methylation of PTPRs in cancer and consider the consequences of PTPR alterations in different types of cancers. We also summarize recent developments using PTPRs as prognostic or predictive biomarkers and/or direct targets. Increased understanding of the role of PTPRs in cancer may provide opportunities to improve therapeutic approaches. | Yu Du Jennifer R.Grandis | 2015 | Chinese Journal of Cancer2015，34，2： | 4 |
| 3 | Targeting the JAK/STAT pathway in solid tumors显示文摘Aberrant activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription(STAT)proteins is associated with the development and progression of solid tumors.However,as transcription factors,these proteins are difficult to target directly.In this review,we summarize the role of targeting Janus kinases(JAKs),upstream activators of STATs,as a strategy for decreasing STAT activation in solid tumors.Preclinical studies in solid tumor cell line models show that JAK inhibitors decrease STAT activation,cell proliferation,and cell survival;in in vivo models,they also inhibit tumor growth.JAK inhibitors,particularly the JAK1/2 inhibitor ruxolitinib,sensitize cell lines and murine models to chemotherapy,immunotherapy,and oncolytic viral therapy.Ten JAK inhibitors have been or are actively being tested in clinical trials as monotherapy or in combination with other agents in patients with solid tumors;two of these inhibitors are already Food and Drug Administration(FDA)approved for the treatment of myeloproliferative disorders and rheumatoid arthritis,making them attractive agents for use in patients with solid tumors as they are known to be well-tolerated.Four JAK inhibitors(two of which are FDA approved for other indications)have exhibited promising anti-cancer effects in preclinical studies;however,clinical studies specifically assessing their activity against the JAK/STAT pathway in solid tumors have not yet been conducted.In summary,JAK inhibition is a viable option for targeting the JAK/STAT pathway in solid tumors and merits further testing in clinical trials. | Zoya Qureshy Daniel E.Johnson Jennifer R.Grandis | 2020 | Journal of Cancer Metastasis and Treatment2020，6，1： | 1 |
