Low expression of the PPARγ-regulated gene thioredoxin-interacting protein accompanies human melanoma progression and promotes experimental lung metastases

Abstract The thioredoxin system plays key roles in regulating cancer cell malignancy. Here we identify the Thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) as a gene, which expression is regulated by PPARγ in melanoma cells. We show that high TXNIP expression levels associate with benign melanocytic lesions,...
