Ras-PI3K pathway promotes osteosarcoma progression via regulating VRK1-mediated H2A phosphorylation at threonine 120.

Conclusions: Ras-PI3K pathway activation promoted osteosarcoma progression might be via up-regulating VRK1-mediated H2AT120ph. We proposed that VRK1 and H2AT120ph could be the potential targets for osteosarcoma diagnosis and treatment.HighlightsH2AT120ph is specifically promoted by Ras-PI3K pathway activation.H2AT120ph joins in the oncogenic effects of Ras-PI3K pathway on osteosarcoma.H2AT120ph regulates the transcription of Ras-PI3K-targeted genes.VRK1 takes part in the regulatory function of Ras-PI3K pathway on H2AT120ph.
