DNAJB1-PRKACA Fusion Drives Fibrolamellar Liver Cancer through Impaired SIK Signaling and CRTC2/p300-Mediated Transcriptional Reprogramming.

ABSTRACT:

Significance

This work combines functional studies in model systems and examination of human tumor specimens to define a central oncogenic pathway driven by DNAJB1-PRKACA fusions in FLC. DNAJB1-PRKACA-mediated inactivation of the SIK stimulates CRTC2-p300-mediated transcription to drive tumor growth. The findings illuminate pathogenic mechanisms and inform therapeutic development.
