| Plag1Gene Symbol: Plag1 Description: pleiomorphic adenoma gene 1 Alias: zinc finger protein PLAG1, C2H2 zinc finger protein PLAG1, pleiomorphic adenoma gene 1 protein Species: mouse Hide T, Takezaki T, Nakatani Y, Nakamura H, Kuratsu J, Kondo T. Sox11 prevents tumorigenesis of glioma-initiating cells by inducing neuronal differentiation. Cancer Res. 2009;69:7953-9 pubmed publisher
..Together with the clinical evidence showing that downregulation of sox11 mRNA correlates with a significant decrease in survival, these findings suggest that Sox11 prevents gliomagenesis by blocking the expression of oncogenic plagl1. ..
