Loss of Smad4 promotes aggressive lung cancer metastasis by de-repression of PAK3 via miRNA regulation

Loss of Smad4 promotes aggressive lung cancer metastasis by de-repression of PAK3 via miRNA regulation

The underlying mechanisms by which Smad4 loss-of-function accelerates lung cancer metastasis is unclear. Here, the authors show PAK3 as a downstream effector of Smad4 promoting metastatic signalling and suggest Smad4-PAK3 regulation as a point of potential therapy in metastatic lung cancer.
