Abstract
⺠We performed an in-depth literature and data search on reported expression of teneurins in human tumors. ⺠Aberrant expression of teneurin-2 and -4 transcripts was found in various cancer types. ⺠Current data point to the involvement of some teneurins in cancer-related cell signaling pathways. ⺠Teneurin-2 overexpression could be associated with resistance to cytotoxic treatment. ⺠Protein-based evidence suggests the existence of secreted teneurin domains that might be detected in human body fluids.
