Gastrin Induces Nuclear Export and Proteasome Degradation of Menin in Enteric Glial Cells

The multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 1 (MEN1) locus encodes the nuclear protein and tumor suppressor menin. MEN1 mutations frequently cause neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) such as gastrinomas, characterized by their predominant duodenal location and loc… Continue reading

Degradation of PHLPP2 by KCTD17, via a Glucagon-dependent Pathway, Promotes Hepatic Steatosis

Obesity-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) develops, in part, via excess insulin-stimulated hepatic de novo lipogenesis, which increases, paradoxically, in patients with obesity-induced insulin resistance. Pleckstrin homology domain leuc… Continue reading
