Metallothionein loss in cancer cells contributes to increased mutations through defective DNA repair and metabolic imbalance

Mirna Mina-Abouda, Amy C. Rees, Della R. Evans…·Joe Ryan Delaney

This study shows that loss of metallothionein (MT) in cancer cells increases mutations by impairing DNA repair and causing metabolic imbalance.

Porcn is essential for growth and invagination of the mammalian optic cup

Sabine Fuhrmann, Sara Ramirez, Mirna Mina-Abouda, Clorissa D. Campbell

This study shows that Porcn is essential for optic vesicle growth and morphogenesis in mammals by regulating proliferation and survival, and its loss leads to microphthalmia in FDH patients.
