Small interfering RNA targeting N-cadherin regulates cell proliferation and migration in enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer
Oncol Lett. 2022 Mar;23(3):90. doi: 10.3892/ol.2022.13210. Epub 2022 Jan 21.ABSTRACTEnzalutamide is one of the options for treating patients with castration-resistant or metastatic prostate cancer. However, a substantial proportion of patients become resistant to enzalutamide after a period of treatment. Cells in these tumors typically exhibit increased proliferative and migratory capabilities, in which N-cadherin (CDH2) appear to serve an important role. In the present study, by up- and downregulating the expression of CDH2, the possible effects of CDH2 on the prostate cancer cell line LNCaP were investigated. Male sex ho...

Activation of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors attenuates monocyte-endothelial adhesion through FUT7 inhibition
In this study, we hypothesized that CAP regulates monocyte accessibility by influencing their adhesion to endothelial cells. Using RNA-seq analysis, we identified that α1,3-Fucosyltransferase 7 (FucT-VII), the enzyme required for processing selectin ligands, was significantly downregulated by α7nAChR agonist among other cell-cell adhesion genes. The α7nAChR agonist inhibited monocytic cell line U-937 binding to P-selectin and adhesion to endothelial cells. Furthermore, α7nAChR agonist selectivity was confirmed by α7nAChR knockdown assays, showing that FUT7 inhibition and adhesion attenuation by the agonist was abolish...

Heterogeneous multi-compartmental DNA hydrogel particles prepared < em > via < /em > microfluidic assembly for lymphocyte-inspired precision medicine
Nanoscale. 2021 Dec 3. doi: 10.1039/d1nr06594g. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLymphocytes play a vital role in immunosurveillance through sensing biomolecules and eliminating targeted invaders. Compared with conventional therapies that depend on drug loading, lymphocytes are advantageous as they are able to ensure self-regulated therapeutics. Here, novel multi-compartmental DNA hydrogel particles were synthesized using a microfluidic assembly for intelligent cancer treatment via the logic-based control of siRNA release without external stimulation. The sensing sequence (D1) was compartmentalized from the treatment sequence...

Cancers, Vol. 13, Pages 5779: Kinome-Wide siRNA Screening Identifies DYRK1B as a Potential Therapeutic Target for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells
Conclusions: our results suggest DYRK1B might be essential for promoting tumor progression and could be a theranostic target for TNBC. Silencing or inactivation of DYRK1B might be a potential targeted therapy for TNBC.

Perturbed ER homeostasis by IGF-IIR α promotes cardiac damage under stresses
In this study, we investigate the molecular mechanism and contribution of IGF-IIRα in endoplasmic reticulum stress induction in the heart under doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Using in vitro H9c2 cells, in vivo transgenic rat cardiac tissues, siRNAs against CHOP, chemical ER chaperone PBA, and western blot experiments, we found that IGF-IIRα overexpression enhanced ER stress markers ATF4, ATF6, IRE1α, and PERK which were further aggravated by DOX treatment. This was accompanied by a significant perturbation in stress-associated MAPKs such as p38 and JNK. Interestingly, PARKIN, a stress responsive cellular protective...
