Attenuation of cancer proliferation by suppression of glypican-1 and its pleiotropic effects in neoplastic behavior
Oncotarget. 2023 Mar 21;14:219-235. doi: 10.18632/oncotarget.28388.ABSTRACTGlypicans (GPC1-6) are associated with tumorigenic processes and their involvement in neoplastic behavior has been discussed in different cancer types. Here, a cancer-wide GPC expression study, using clinical cancer patient data in The Cancer Genome Atlas, reveals net upregulation of GPC1 and GPC2 in primary solid tumors, whereas GPC3, GPC5 and GPC6 display lowered expression pattern compared to normal tissues. Focusing on GPC1, survival analyses of the clinical cancer patient data reveal statistically significant correlation between high expression...

MDM2 is a potential therapeutic target and prognostic factor for ovarian clear cell carcinomas with wild type TP53.
Authors: Makii C, Oda K, Ikeda Y, Sone K, Hasegawa K, Uehara Y, Nishijima A, Asada K, Koso T, Fukuda T, Inaba K, Oki S, Machino H, Kojima M, Kashiyama T, Mori-Uchino M, Arimoto T, Wada-Hiraike O, Yano KK, Fujiwara K, Aburatani H, Osuga Y, Fujii T Abstract MDM2, a ubiquitin ligase, suppresses wild type TP53 via proteasome-mediated degradation. We evaluated the prognostic and therapeutic value of MDM2 in ovarian clear cell carcinoma. MDM2 expression in ovarian cancer tissues was analyzed by microarray and real-time PCR, and its relationship with prognosis was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. The an...
