The role of MDM2 and MDM4 in breast cancer development and prevention

从乳癌的死亡的主要原因不是主要的瘤，而是 relapsing，药抵抗的、变形疾病。识别贡献好攻击的癌症的因素为治疗提供重要领先。对致癌物的固有的防卫取决于每个人的单个分子的组成。这些回答的重要分子的决定因素在鼠标的控制下面是两倍分钟(MDM ) 家庭：蛋白质 MDM2 和 MDM4 包括了。对应力和随后的恢复的在正常、健康成年房间，极其调整的 MDM 家庭功能测量的、细胞的回答。MDM 家庭的合适的功能为正常的胸开发，而且为保存 genomic 忠实是重要的。MDM 家庭成员最好被描绘让他们主要的瘤 suppressor p53 的否定规定调制压力回答。他们另外的细胞的管理者上的影响正在出现。MDM 家庭的不适当地提高的蛋白质层次高度与癌症发生的增加的风险被联系。是的 MDM 家庭成员的探索癌症治疗学的目标为设计定制的反癌症治疗是相关的，但是成功的途径必须战略上在目标癌症和邻近的健康房间和纸巾上考虑影响。这评论集中于在正常、恶意的胸房间与 MDM 家庭的角色相关的最近的调查结果。

The long and the short of it:the MDM4 tail so far

The mouse double minute 4(MDM4)is emerging from the shadow of its more famous relative MDM2 and is starting to steal the limelight,largely due to its therapeutic possibilities.MDM4 is a vital regulator of the tumor suppressor p53?It restricts p53 transcriptional activity and also,at least in development,facilitates MDM2's E3 ligase activity toward p53.These functions of MDM4 are critical for normal cell function and a proper response to stress.Their importance for proper cell maintenance and proliferation identifies them as a risk for deregulation associated with the uncontrolled growth of cancer.MDM4 tails are vital for its function,where its N-terminus transactivation domain engages p53 and its C-terminus RING domain binds to MDM2.In this review,we highlight recently identified cellular functions of MDM4 and survey emerging therapies directed to correcting its dys regulation in disease.

Corrigendum to‘The long and the short of it:the MDM4 tail so far’

In this article (p.240, MDM4 Inhibition section, second paragraph), the drug name of Aileron stapled peptide ‘ALN-6924’ was incorrectly cited (as ‘ALN-6942’). This mistake was due to human error. The conclusions of the review are not affected and the authors apologize for this error.
