“…In prostate cancer cells, targeting PTK6 to the nucleus inhibits proliferation while cytoplasmic PTK6 promotes proliferation . Overexpression of membrane-targeted active PTK6 in prostate cancer cells drives epithelialmesenchymal transition (Zheng et al, 2012) and anchorage-independent survival (Zheng et al, 2013a) as well as in vivo xenograft metastasis (Zheng et al, 2013b). Recently, PTK6 was detected in nuclei of normal mammary gland epithelium (Peng et al, 2014), and overexpression of PTK6 promotes oncogenic signaling and invasive phenotypes in breast cancer cells (Harvey and Crompton, 2003;Xiang et al, 2008;Irie et al, 2010).…”
