Oncosuppressive functions of tribbles pseudokinase 3

Tribbles pseudokinase 3 (TRIB3) belongs to the tribbles family of pseudokinases. In this article, we summarize several observation obtained by our laboratories supporting that TRIB3 plays a crucial role in the anti-cancer activity of cannabinoids (a novel family of potential anti-cancer agents derived from marijuana) and that TRIB3 genetic inactivation enhances cancer generation and progression.
