SPAG9/MKK3/p38 axis is a novel therapeutic target for liver cancer.
Authors: Luo S, Ren B, Zou G, Liu J, Chen W, Huang Y, Chen X, Fu Y Abstract Sperm‑associated antigen 9 (SPAG9) is a biomarker and potential therapeutic target for several cancers; however, its involvement in liver cancer progression is not clear. The aim of the present study was to determine whether SPAG9 regulates proliferation of liver cancer. Immunohistochemistry and cell immunofluorescence were used to confirm the expression and the localization of SPAG9 in human liver cancer tissues and the liver cancer‑derived HepG2 cells. A small interfering RNA (siRNA) designed to target SPAG9 was transiently transfecte...

Oncol Rep. 2018 Dec 06;: Authors: Tang X, Yang W, Shu Z, Shen X, Zhang W, Cen C, Cao L, Zhang M, Zheng S, Yu J Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a globally prevalent malignancy associated with a poor patient prognosis. We investigated the relationship between microRNA‑223 (miR‑223) expression and the sensitivity of HCC cells to sorafenib treatment. miR‑223 expression was determined in HCC cell lines with differential sorafenib sensitivity using reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR. miR‑...

Glutathione peroxidase 4 maintains a stemness phenotype, oxidative homeostasis and regulates biological processes in Panc ‑1 cancer stem‑like cells.
Glutathione peroxidase 4 maintains a stemness phenotype, oxidative homeostasis and regulates biological processes in Panc‑1 cancer stem‑like cells. Oncol Rep. 2018 Dec 06;: Authors: Peng G, Tang Z, Xiang Y, Chen W Abstract Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been widely accepted as critical molecules playing regulatory roles in various biological processes, including proliferation, differentiation and apoptotic/ferroptotic/necrotic cell death. Emerging evidence suggests that ROS may be involved in the induction of epithelial‑to‑mesenchymal transition (EMT), which has been reported to promote can...

Leukocyte ‑associated immunoglobulin‑like receptor 1 promotes tumorigenesis in RCC.
Leukocyte‑associated immunoglobulin‑like receptor 1 promotes tumorigenesis in RCC. Oncol Rep. 2018 Nov 20;: Authors: Jingushi K, Uemura M, Nakano K, Hayashi Y, Wang C, Ishizuya Y, Yamamoto Y, Hayashi T, Kinouchi T, Matsuzaki K, Kato T, Kawashima A, Ujike T, Nagahara A, Fujita K, Ueda K, Tsujikawa K, Nonomura N Abstract Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common type of kidney cancer in adults, responsible for approximately 90‑95% of cases. We previously reported a novel method that enables direct extraction of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from surgically resected viable tissues, yielding what...

Molecular mechanism of LKB1 in the invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer.
Authors: Chen Y, Liu Y, Zhou Y, You H Abstract The occurrence of colorectal cancer (CRC) is associated with a variety of oncogenes and tumor‑suppressor genes. As a tumor‑suppressor gene, the liver kinase B1 gene (LKB1, also known as serine/threonine kinase 11, STK11) is closely related to tumor angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis, but its molecular mechanisms remain unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of LKB1 on the invasion and metastasis of CRC, and to explore its molecular mechanisms. By detecting the expression of LKB1 in CRC, we can provide a reference index for diagnosin...

Evironmental pollutant perfluorodecanoic acid upregulates cIAP2 to suppress gastric cell senescence.
Authors: Zhang Z, Song N, Peng Y, Fan Z, Han M, Zhao M, Dong T, Liu S Abstract The role of perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA) in gastric carcinogenesis and its mechanism remains unknown. Our previous research revealed that PFDA regulated the growth of human gastric cells. However, its core molecules and basic mechanisms are still not clear. In the present study, cDNA microarrays were used to determine mRNA changes in AGS cells after treatment with PFDA. DAVID analysis of the genes with >2‑fold increased expression in microarray data revealed five genes which were involved in cancer pathways. The most upregulated g...
