Sprouty homolog 4

Spry4, Sprouty4
SPRY4 is an inhibitor of the receptor-transduced mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. It is positioned upstream of RAS (see HRAS; MIM 190020) activation and impairs the formation of active GTP-RAS (Leeksma et al., 2002 [PubMed 12027893]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008] (from NCBI)

High accuracy mutation detection in leukemia on a selected panel of cancer genes.
Aerts et al., Leuven, Belgium. In Plos One, 2011
Finally, we re-sequenced a small set of 39 candidate genes and identified recurrent mutations in TET1, SPRY3 and SPRY4.
Keratinocyte growth factor induces gene expression signature associated with suppression of malignant phenotype of cutaneous squamous carcinoma cells.
Kähäri et al., Turku, Finland. In Plos One, 2011
Gene expression profiling of three cutaneous SCC cell lines treated with KGF for 24 h revealed a specific gene expression signature characterized by upregulation of a set of genes specifically downregulated in SCC cells compared to normal epidermal keratinocytes, including genes with tumor suppressing properties (SPRY4, DUSP4, DUSP6, LRIG1, PHLDA1).
Integrative analysis of somatic mutations altering microRNA targeting in cancer genomes.
Cui et al., Memphis, United States. In Plos One, 2011
Specifically, we identify putative miRNA target sites in the 3'UTRs of BMPR1B, KLK3, and SPRY4 that are disrupted by both somatic and germline mutations and, also, are in linkage disequilibrium blocks with high scoring markers from cancer association studies.
Promoter methylation of candidate genes associated with familial testicular cancer.
Greene et al., Bethesda, United States. In Int J Mol Epidemiol Genet, 2011
We observed increased PDE11A, SPRY4 and BAK1 promoter methylation, and decreased KITLG promoter methylation, in familial TGCT cases versus healthy male family controls.
Analyzing genetic association studies with an extended propensity score approach.
Mitra et al., Amman, Jordan. In Stat Appl Genet Mol Biol, 2011
We illustrate this approach in a population-based genetic association study of testicular germ cell tumors and KITLG and SPRY4 susceptibility genes.
[Carcinoma in situ of the testis: predisposition, evolution and early detection].
Review
Biermann, Rotterdam, Netherlands. In Pathologe, 2011
Recently, genome-wide association studies revealed genetic predispositions linked to six genes (KITL, SPRY4, BAK1, TERT, ATF7IP, DMRT1).
Regulation of tooth number by fine-tuning levels of receptor-tyrosine kinase signaling.
GeneRIF
Klein et al., San Francisco, United States. In Development, 2011
Interestingly, changes in sprouty gene dosage led to a graded change in incisor number, with progressive decreases in sprouty dosage leading to increasing numbers of teeth.
Hindbrain patterning requires fine-tuning of early krox20 transcription by Sprouty 4.
GeneRIF

Sprouty4 levels are increased under hypoxic conditions by enhanced mRNA stability and transcription.
GeneRIF
Sutterlüty et al., Vienna, Austria. In Biol Chem, 2010
The Spry4 might be involved in the timely restriction of MAPK signals under hypoxic conditions, similar to its role in mitogen-regulated processes.
Sprouty-4 inhibits transformed cell growth, migration and invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and is regulated by Wnt7A through PPARgamma in non-small cell lung cancer.
GeneRIF
Winn et al., Aurora, United States. In Mol Cancer Res, 2010
Spry4 is a downstream target of Wnt7A/Fzd 9 signaling and may have efficacy in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.

Review
Korde et al., Bethesda, United States. In Endocr Relat Cancer, 2010
Two genomewide association studies of predominantly sporadic but also familial cases of TGCT have implicated the KIT-ligand, SPRY4, and BAK1 genes as TGCT risk modifiers.
