“…Overexpression of RB1 in canine OSA cells from the first group shifted their gene expression profiles to more closely resemble those of the second group through altered E2F signaling (Moriarity et al, 2015). In addition to these more global evaluations of gene expression, a variety of studies have linked activation of signaling pathways including receptor tyrosine kinase-MAP kinase, Hedgehog (O’Donoghue et al, 2010; Shahi, Holt, & Rebhun, 2014), Notch (Dailey et al, 2013), Wnt (de Sa Rodrigues, Holmes, Thompson, Newton, & Stein, 2017; Piskun & Stein, 2016; Stein, Holmes, Muthuswamy, Thompson, & Huelsmeyer, 2011), STAT3 (Fossey et al, 2009), TGFβ, cellular survival (Shoeneman et al, 2012), ezrin (Hong et al, 2011; Khanna et al, 2004) and MTOR (Gordon, Ye, & Kent, 2008) in the pathogenesis and metastasis of canine OSA. These studies have been summarized in a recent reviews of canine (Fenger et al, 2014) and human (Kansara, Teng, Smyth, & Thomas, 2014) OSA (Table 2).…”
