Research Abstract |
We reported that NDRG2 (N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2) is a candidate for tumor suppressor gene in ATLL(adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma), which can modulate signal transduction of PI3K/AKT pathway. NDRG2 deficient mice developed various type of tumor with increased phosphorylated AKT in all organs. Furthermore, we indicated that NDRG2 deficient mice associated with lifestyle related disease such as brain disease, cardiac hypertrophy and fatty liver. These finding suggest thatNDRG2 may become a new therapeutic target for many type of disease
