Newly identified tumor suppressor provides therapeutic target for prostate cancer




Researchers at Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute found that the enzyme PKCζ controls the activation of a pro-tumor gene called c-Myc. Normally, PKCζ's alteration keeps c-Myc in check. But PKCζ levels are low in prostate and other cancers, leaving c-Myc free to enhance cell growth and metastasis.
