Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, New York 14263, USA
Genes Chromosomes Cancer 36:1-6. 2003..This is the only reported homozygous deletion recorded so far in Wilms tumor, and it provides the means to identify the tumor-suppressor gene located in this deletion...
WAVE3 promotes cell motility and invasion through the regulation of MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-9 expressionKhalid Sossey-Alaoui
Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Elm and Carlton Streets, Buffalo, NY 14263, USA
Exp Cell Res 308:135-45. 2005..These findings suggest that WAVE3 regulates actin cytoskeleton, cell motility, and invasion through the p38 MAPK pathway and MMP production...
Genomic organization and expression profile of the human and mouse WAVE gene familyKhalid Sossey-Alaoui
Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, 110 C and V Building, Elm and Carlton Streets, Buffalo, New York 14263, USA
Mamm Genome 14:314-22. 2003..It also provides the first steps towards the development of mouse models for the role of the WAVE genes in actin and cytoskeleton organization in general, and in the development of neuroblastoma in particular...
WAVE3-mediated cell migration and lamellipodia formation are regulated downstream of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinaseKhalid Sossey-Alaoui
Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Elm and Carlton Streets, Buffalo, NY 14263, USA
J Biol Chem 280:21748-55. 2005..The findings of the WAVE3-p85 partnership also suggest a potential regulatory role for p85 in WAVE3-dependent actin-cytoskeleton reorganization and cell migration...
Silencing of the Tropomyosin-1 gene by DNA methylation alters tumor suppressor function of TGF-betaAndrea E Varga
Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY 14263, USA
Oncogene 24:5043-52. 2005..Together these results suggest that epigenetic suppression of TPM1 may alter TGF-beta tumor suppressor function and contribute to metastatic properties of tumor cells...
Aberrant expression of novel and previously described cell membrane markers in human breast cancer cell lines and tumorsHuayi Huang
Department of Pathology, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, New York 14263, USA
Clin Cancer Res 11:4357-64. 2005..We also studied the expression of three other cell membrane proteins known to play a role in mammary neoplasia...
EVI5 protein associates with the INCENP-aurora B kinase-survivin chromosomal passenger complex and is involved in the completion of cytokinesisSilviu L Faitar
Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Elm and Carlton Streets, Buffalo, NY 14263, USA
Exp Cell Res 312:2325-35. 2006..Together, these data provide evidence that EVI5 is an essential component of the protein machinery facilitating the final stages of cell septation at the end of mitosis...
WAVE3, an actin-polymerization gene, is truncated and inactivated as a result of a constitutional t(1;13)(q21;q12) chromosome translocation in a patient with ganglioneuroblastomaKhalid Sossey-Alaoui
Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, New York, USA
Oncogene 21:5967-74. 2002..From analysis of its expression pattern and function, WAVE3 is a candidate tumor suppressor gene, at least in some forms of neuroblastoma...
The tetraspanin superfamily member NET-6 is a new tumor suppressor geneHuayi Huang
Department of Pathology, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY 14263, USA
J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 133:761-9. 2007..We now describe the phenotypic and molecular changes induced in MDA-MB-231 breast carcinoma cells by ectopic NET-6 expression...
CLCA2 tumour suppressor gene in 1p31 is epigenetically regulated in breast cancerXiurong Li
Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY 14263, USA
Oncogene 23:1474-80. 2004..These findings demonstrate that CLCA2 is frequently inactivated in breast cancer by promoter region hypermethylation, which makes it an excellent candidate for the 1p31 breast cancer tumour suppressor gene...
Characterization of FAM10A4, a member of the ST13 tumor suppressor gene family that maps to the 13q14.3 region associated with B-Cell leukemia, multiple myeloma, and prostate cancerKhalid Sossey-Alaoui
Department of Cancer Genetics, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, New York, 14263, USA
Genomics 80:5-7. 2002..The characterization of this gene will permit mutation studies in other tumor cell types such as multiple myeloma and prostate cancer, which also show genetic loss in the 13q14 region...
