Mutated USP8 activates EGFR. 10 / 10

reach
"15 Moreover, USP8 mutations increase its deubiquitinase activity and enhance the stability of EGFR, 16 , 17 which further results in increased mRNA expression level of proopiomelanocortin (POMC), the [MISSING/INVALID CREDENTIALS: limited to 200 char for Elsevier]"

reach
"Considering that activation of EGFR-MAPK signaling induces p27 (Kip1) degradation, and p27 (Kip1)-deficient mice develop corticotropinoma XREF_BIBR, XREF_BIBR, we speculate that through activating EGFR signaling USP8 mutation accelerates p27 (Kip1) degradation, representing an important molecular mechanism underlying ACTH hyperproduction (XREF_FIG)."

reach
"Previous studies have demonstrated that the USP8 mutation causes corticotroph adenomas mainly through activating the EGFR–MAPK signal cascades ."

reach
"In human corticotroph primary cultures, treatment with the pan-ErbB TKI canertinib as well as the EGFR TKI gefitinib suppresses POMC mRNA, and USP8 mutations, detected in up to two-thirds of CD, may underlie the increase in EGFR signaling in these tumors."

reach
"Moreover, USP8 mutants induce both EGFR retention on the plasma membrane and recycling of endocytosed EGFR back to the cell surface, causing continuous activation of EGF signaling."

reach
"The USP8 mutation (14-3-3 somatic mutations) induces corticotroph EGFR adenoma signaling by rescuing EGFR from lysosomal degradation and enhancing EGFR accumulation (9)."

reach
"As mentioned above, mutations of USP8 prevent EGFR degradation [1]."

reach
"The USP8 mutation (14-3-3 somatic mutations) inhibits EGFR degradation, enhances EGFR accumulation, and consequently, likely induces corticotroph EGFR tumor signaling."

reach
"We found that USP8 mutated PAs have a higher incidence of EGFR expression, increased EGFR protein abundance and activation of downstream Erk1/2, indicating that USP8 mutations enhance EGFR signaling in tumors."

reach
"USP8 mutations prevent EGFR degradation via deubiquitination of EGFR, increase cell surface EGFR expression, and render EGFR as a potential therapeutic target by gefitinib."
