New insights into tumor suppression: PTEN suppresses tumor formation by restraining the phosphoinositide 3-kinase/AKT pathway.
- L. Cantley, B. Neel
- Medicine, Biology
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
- 13 April 1999
The most recently discovered PTEN tumor suppressor gene has been found to be defective in a large number of human cancers. In addition, germ-line mutations in PTEN result in the dominantly inherited… Expand
STAT3 signalling is required for leptin regulation of energy balance but not reproduction
- S. H. Bates, W. Stearns, +10 authors M. Myers
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 20 February 2003
Secretion of leptin from adipocytes communicates body energy status to the brain by activating the leptin receptor long form (LRb). LRb regulates energy homeostasis and neuroendocrine function; the… Expand
The 'Shp'ing news: SH2 domain-containing tyrosine phosphatases in cell signaling.
Src homology-2 (SH2) domain-containing phosphatases (Shps) are a small, highly conserved subfamily of protein-tyrosine phosphatases, members of which are present in both vertebrates and… Expand
Solubilization and purification of enzymatically active glutathione S-transferase (pGEX) fusion proteins.
- J. V. Frangioni, B. Neel
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Analytical biochemistry
- 1 April 1993
The pGEX glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion protein system is used extensively for high level expression and rapid purification of fusion proteins from bacterial and eukaryotic cell lysates.… Expand
Mathematical models of protein kinase signal transduction.
- Reinhart Heinrich, B. Neel, T. Rapoport
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular cell
- 1 May 2002
We have developed a mathematical theory that describes the regulation of signaling pathways as a function of a limited number of key parameters. Our analysis includes linear kinase-phosphatase… Expand
PTP1B regulates leptin signal transduction in vivo.
- J. Zabolotny, K. Bence-Hanulec, +8 authors B. Neel
- Medicine, Biology
- Developmental cell
- 1 April 2002
Mice lacking the protein-tyrosine phosphatase PTP1B are hypersensitive to insulin and resistant to obesity. However, the molecular basis for resistance to obesity has been unclear. Here we show that… Expand
The "Gab" in signal transduction.
Tyrosine phosphorylation plays an important role in controlling cellular growth, differentiation and function. Abnormal regulation of tyrosine phosphorylation can result in human diseases such as… Expand
Germline gain-of-function mutations in SOS1 cause Noonan syndrome
- A. Roberts, T. Araki, +8 authors R. Kucherlapati
- Medicine, Biology
- Nature Genetics
- 2007
Noonan syndrome, the most common single-gene cause of congenital heart disease, is characterized by short stature, characteristic facies, learning problems and leukemia predisposition.… Expand
Increased Energy Expenditure, Decreased Adiposity, and Tissue-Specific Insulin Sensitivity in Protein-Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B-Deficient Mice
ABSTRACT Protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP-1B) is a major protein-tyrosine phosphatase that has been implicated in the regulation of insulin action, as well as in other signal transduction… Expand
Shp2 regulates SRC family kinase activity and Ras/Erk activation by controlling Csk recruitment.
- S. Q. Zhang, W. Yang, +8 authors B. Neel
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular cell
- 13 February 2004
The protein-tyrosine phosphatase Shp2 plays an essential role in growth factor and integrin signaling, and Shp2 mutations cause developmental defects and/or malignancy. Previous work has placed Shp2… Expand
