"Furthermore, two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) tests revealed statistically significant increases (siUSP22-2, siUSP22-3) and a decrease (siUSP22-Pool) in cumulative nuclear area frequency distributions relative to siControl (XREF_FIG D; Table S5) that are consistent with reduced USP22 expression inducing CIN."

reach
"In agreement with this possibility, we show that diminished USP22 expression induces CIN, highlighting a novel role for USP22 as a tumor suppressor that is essential to maintain mitotic fidelity and chromosome stability."

reach
"In this regard, while USP22 has been proposed as a novel therapeutic target based on its oncogenic functions [XREF_BIBR, XREF_BIBR, XREF_BIBR], our work suggests that USP22 inhibition will induce CIN that may promote cancer progression and/or the development of secondary malignancies."

reach
"Further, we identify USP22 as a novel CIN gene, indicating that USP22 deletions in tumors may drive CIN and contribute to oncogenesis."

reach
"Having established that reduced USP22 expression induces CIN in short-term (< 1 week) siRNA based experiments, we now sought to determine the impact long-term USP22 depletion has on CIN."
