The cancer-related factors and signal transduction pathways that PTE suppresses are also diverse, and include Janus kinase-2/signal transduction and activator of transcription-3, human telomerase reverse transcriptase, c-Myc, mutant epithelial growth factor receptor, protein kinase B (also known as AKT), multiple drug resistance-1, sirtuin-1, DNA methyltransferase, extracellular signal-regulated kinase, cyclin D1, mammalian target of rapamycin, metastasis-associated protein, and nuclear factor-κB [9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17]. The gene discussed is MYC; the disease is cancer.
