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 →
