PTEN Cancer Research Results

PTEN, phosphatase and tensin homolog; phosphatase and tensin homolog pseudogene 1: Click to Expand ⟱

Source: CGL-Driver Genes

Type: TSG

PTEN (Phosphatase and Tensin Homolog) is a crucial tumor suppressor gene that plays a significant role in regulating cell growth, proliferation, and survival. It encodes a protein that functions as a phosphatase, which means it removes phosphate groups from specific molecules, thereby regulating various signaling pathways, particularly the PI3K/AKT pathway.
PTEN is mutated, deleted, or otherwise inactivated. This loss of function can lead to increased cell proliferation and survival, contributing to tumorigenesis. PTEN mutations are commonly found in various cancers, including:
Prostate cancer
Breast cancer
Endometrial cancer
Glioblastoma
