An update regarding the role of WNK kinases in cancer
Abstract Mammalian WNK kinases (WNKs) are serine/threonine kinases that contain four members, WNK1–4. They function to maintain ion homeostasis and regulate blood pressure in mammals. Recent studies have revealed that the dysregulation of WNKs contributes to tumor growth, metastasis, and angiogenesi...
