Tumor Suppressor Gene XEDAR Promotes Differentiation and Suppresses Proliferation and Migration of Gastric Cancer Cells Through Upregulating the RELA/LXR α Axis and Deactivating the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway
Cell Transplant. 2021 Jan-Dec;30:963689721996346. doi: 10.1177/0963689721996346.ABSTRACTX-linked ectodermal dysplasia receptor (XEDAR) is a new member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family that induces cell death. The purpose of this study is to determine the tumor-suppressive potential of XEDAR in the development and differentiation of gastric cancer (GC). XEDAR levels were analyzed in human GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues by immunohistochemistry (IHC), quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR), and Western blot analysis. We found that XEDAR expression was significantly downregulated ...

Systems Biology Approaches and Precision Oral Health: A Circadian Clock Perspective
Conclusion Most head and neck pathologies show a broad cellular heterogeneity making it difficult to achieve an accurate diagnosis and efficient treatment (Graf and Zavodszky, 2017; Lo Nigro et al., 2017). Single cell analysis of circadian omics (Lande-Diner et al., 2015; Abraham et al., 2018), may be a crucial tool needed in the future to fully understand the circadian control of head and neck diseases. It becomes more obvious that there is only a small genetic component but a largely unknown epigenetics and/or environmental component for most of the head and neck pathologies (Moosavi and Motevalizadeh Ardekani, 2016; He...

Complement C5b-9 and Cancer: Mechanisms of Cell Damage, Cancer Counteractions, and Approaches for Intervention
In conclusion, osmotic burst of inflated complement-damaged cells may occur, but these bursts are most likely a consequence of metabolic collapse of the cell rather than the cause of cell death. The Complement Cell Death Mediator: A Concerted Action of Toxic Moieties Membrane pores caused by complement were first visualized by electron microscopy on red blood cell membranes as large ring structures (22). Similar lesions were viewed on E. coli cell walls (23). Over the years, ample information on the fine ultrastructure of the MAC that can activate cell death has been gathered (24) and has been recently further examined (...
