"Notably, suppressing FAPalpha in oral squamous cancer cells significantly decreased the expression of phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K), protein kinase B (AKT), mitogen activated protein kinase kinase 1/2 and extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2, and upregulated the expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)."
reach
"PTEN inhibits PI3K, whereas a mutated PTEN gene, the presence of a pseudogene or other complex downregulation mechanisms, leads to decreased or inactive PTEN protein expression, thus PI3K overexpression and as such favors the proto-oncogene MYC 's action on cell cycle and survival."
reach
"Downregulation of PTEN phosphatase or constitutive PI3K activation are demonstrated resistance mechanisms for anti-HER2 therapies and decreased PTEN expression and activating mutations of PI3K are present in between 13-52% and 13-30% of her2 positive breast cancer, respectively [XREF_BIBR]."
reach
"This analysis of prospectively treated patients has several limitations, including the small sample size, the heterogeneity of prior and current therapy regimens including monotherapy and combination immunotherapy regimens, and the lack of functional validation that the observed PTEN alterations, which included single copy deletions, led to decreased PTEN expression in tumors."
reach
"We constructed a PTENα expressing oncolytic virus, HSV-P10, using a modified PTENα gene sequence, whereby we mutated the PTENα CUG start codon to AUG to enhance translation of the full-length N-terminally extended protein, and the internal canonical PTEN AUG start codon to AUA to abrogate canonical PTEN expression from the construct (Fig. 1a) ."

"XREF_BIBR, XREF_BIBR PTEN deficient melanocytes were found to be larger in mouse models, XREF_BIBR and reduced nuclear PTEN expression in human acquired melanocytic nevi has been established XREF_BIBR; we speculate that PTEN mutation may have played a role in iris mammillations development in our patients."

"For the melanoma model, two-day-old Braf CA/+ Pten fl/fl Tyr Cre +/0 mice (designated BPT) were painted with 4-hydroxytamoxifen (H6278, Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, Germany) on the right flank skin to activate BRAF 600E expression and inactivate PTEN expression in melanocytes, as described [XREF_BIBR]."
reach
"For Dicer HCT116 cells, we found depletion of the putative PTEN ceRNAs resulted in higher PTEN protein levels (SERINC1: 290%; VAPA: 144%; CNOT6L: 256%) relative to control siRNA (average PTEN expression = 100%), while targeting PTEN reduced PTEN protein levels to an average of 2.6%."
reach
"Studies of the aberrant expression of several miRNAs in the B cells of SLE patients have reported that miR-7, miR-155, miR-30a, and miR-15a were up-regulated, while miR-1246 were down-regulated (Figure 3), and researches have preliminarily demonstrated their role in SLE.A recent study reported that he up-regulation of miR-7 in the B cells of SLE patients can negatively regulate the expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), which results in up-regulated activation of PI3K/AKT signaling (35, 36)."
reach
"Similarly, a hypoxic tumor microenvironment can induce oral squamous cell carcinoma cells (OSCCs) to generate more miR-21-containing exosomes that are then transferred to normoxic OSCCs to enhance their migration and invasion by inhibiting expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) and PDCD4."
reach
"To elucidate the effect of PTEN on trastuzumab 's efficacy, SKBR3/WT, 4R and 8R cells were transfected with PTEN antisense oligonucleotides, which effectively reduced endogenous PTEN expression compared with the cells transfected with control mismatched (MIS) oligonucleotides (XREF_FIG)."
reach
"50 In addition, two groups of authors demonstrated that the loss of PTEN resulted in the activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.31 32 To clarify the underlying mechanism mediated by circRAB31/miR-885-5p/PTEN axis, we performed western blot and found that PTEN induced by circRAB31 overexpression decreased the protein level of p-AKT, while silencing of circRAB31 inhibited the PTEN protein level and promoted the p-AKT protein level."
reach
"Under these conditions, two of four PTEN shRNAs reduced PTEN protein levels in the transformed MEF cells (XREF_FIG) while simultaneously enhancing cell survival (XREF_FIG) and proliferation as assessed by BrdU incorporation (XREF_SUPPLEMENTARY) without affecting apoptosis (XREF_SUPPLEMENTARY)."
