    Applications
    NUAK2 (NUAK Family Kinase 2) has various applications in different areas of research. In the field of melanoma, studies have shown that activated Akt expression, which is associated with the recurrence of primary melanomas, can help refine the prognostic and predictive values for relapse in acral melanomas. Additionally, NUAK2 amplification and its coupling with PTEN deficiency contribute to the tumorigenesis of melanomas. In gastric cancer, OTUD7B, a deubiquitinase, stabilizes YAP1 and upregulates NUAK2 expression, promoting cancer progression. In SARS-CoV-2 infection, NUAK2 has been identified as a host-dependency factor for viral entry, suggesting its potential as a target for antiviral therapies. In breast cancer, circ_0000033 sequesters miR-378a-3p to upregulate NUAK2, promoting tumor growth. In prostate stromal cells, silencing NUAK1 and NUAK2, as well as using NUAK inhibitors, can inhibit cell proliferation and contraction. These findings highlight the diverse applications of NUAK2 in various biological processes and disease conditions.

    Published Data

    Fig.1 NuAK2 knockdown decreased the number of cells in SM2-1 and C32 cells.

    A cell proliferation analysis demonstrated a noteworthy decrease in the growth of C32 and SM2-1 melanoma cells following the silencing of NUAK2 using shNUAK2 (with p-values of 0.0165 and < 0.0001, respectively).

    Research Highlights

    Nojima, Kohei. et al. "Activated Akt expression is associated with the recurrence of primary melanomas and further refines the prognostic and predictive values for relapse in acral melanomas." Pigment cell & melanoma research, 2023.
    A deficiency in PTEN has been shown to activate phospho-Akt at serine 473 (p-Akt) and contribute to the development of melanomas through NUAK2 amplification. To determine the prognostic value of p-Akt and/or NUAK2 expression in melanoma patients, primary tumors from 168 patients with acral, Low-cumulative sun damage (CSD), and High-CSD melanomas were immunohistochemically examined. Results showed p-Akt expression in 32.1%, 68.4%, and 55.6% of acral, Low-CSD, and High-CSD melanomas, respectively, while NUAK2 expression was found in 46.4%, 76.3%, and 50.0%, respectively. A negative correlation was observed between either p-Akt or NUAK2 expression and relapse-free survival (RFS) in primary melanoma patients and those with acral melanoma. Multivariate analyses revealed a significant impact of p-Akt on RFS, while NUAK2 did not have a significant effect. Subset analyses showed that p-Akt expression was associated with lower RFS in patients with acral melanomas. These findings suggest that p-Akt expression can serve as a predictor for relapse in patients with primary melanomas and specifically in those with acral melanomas.

    Gastric cancer (GC) is a prevalent malignancy globally. The ovarian tumor protein superfamily plays a vital part in tumor growth progression and includes the deubiquitinase (DUB) ovarian tumor domain-containing 7B (OTUD7B), which has been detected in various cancers. However, its function in GC remains unclear.
