Overexpression of splicing protein in skin repair causes early changes seen in skin cancer

«Cancer resembles a state of chronic wound healing, in which the wound-healing program is erroneously activated and perpetuated,» says Professor Adrian Krainer of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. In a paper published today in Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, a team led by Dr. Krainer reports that a protein they show is normally involved in healing wounds and maintaining homeostasis in skin tissue is also, under certain conditions, a promoter of invasive and metastatic skin cancers.
