"PVT1 binding with KLF5 causes KLF5 to stabilise and this elevates the BAP1 levels, which in turn promotes beta-catenin signalling, thus enhancing TNBC carcinogenesis (Li et al., 2018)."

reach
"Deficiency of BAP1 inhibits neuroblastoma tumorigenesis through destabilization of MYCN."

reach
"The fact that we determined that highly penetrant, heterozygous pathogenic BAP1 null variants by themselves, as studied by Kadariya et al. , can initiate and drive MM tumorigenesis in mice absent asbestos exposure supports their conclusions, in agreement with Chanock ."

reach
"BAP1 PGVs accelerate mesothelioma tumorigenesis after asbestos exposure in preclinical models and may be partly predicted by clinical criteria."

reach
"Besides, a study of families with BAP1 germline mutations shows that mutated BAP1 may promote oncogenesis and increase the risk of KIRC by 8-fold through altering cellular metabolism and the tumor microenvironment (25)."

reach
"It is expected that BAP1 promotes tumorigenesis of CCA by modulating DNA repair, gene transcription, and post-translational modification, such as glycosylation."

reach
"42 Other research has speculated that SF3B1 and BAP1 variants can independently lead to oncogenesis and/or malignant progression, reducing the need of their co-occurrence in the natural course of the disease."

reach
"For instance, in the ~40% of tumors that are seemingly wild-type for both PBRM1 and BAP1, what other events cooperate with VHL loss to promote oncogenesis?"

reach
"The strongest evidence implicating BAP1 (and PBRM1) in promoting ccRCC tumorigenesis and regulating aggressiveness is provided by genetically engineered mouse models (GEMM)."

reach
"While RNF2, through H2A monoubiquitination, silences the BCL2 and MCL1 prosurvival genes and thereby induces apoptosis in some cell types, this does not occur in melanocytes, suggesting that BAP1 promotes tumorigenesis in cells that do not engage such RNF2 apoptotic programme.Moving to the p53 tumor suppressor, Karen Vousden (London, UK), who was awarded the CDD Award 2018, retraced the long road leading to her key discoveries of p53 functions."

reach
"In the context of other genetic backgrounds, the L169P variant could possibly synergize with other oncogenic gene mutation(s), such as BAP1 and p53 uncovered in the highly aggressive and metastatic case of ccRCC [5], to drive tumorigenesis."
