aPKC controls endothelial growth by modulating c-Myc via FoxO1 DNA-binding ability

The cell polarity regulator aPKC is associated with cell proliferation but the precise mechanism are unknown. Here, the authors find that aPKC lambda phosphorylates the FoxO1 transcription factor, a gatekeeper of endothelial growth, during both angiogenesis and angiosarcomas.
