The 17β-estradiol (E2)/estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) signaling pathway is one of the most important pathways in hormone-dependent breast cancer. E2 plays pivotal roles cancer cell growth, survival, and architecture as well gene expression regulatory mechanisms. In this study, we established stably transfected MCF-7 cells by knocking down ERα (designated MCF-7/SP10 + cells), using specific shRNA lentiviral particles, compared them with control (MCF-7/c). Interestingly, silencing strongly...
Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a developmental program, which can be adopted by cancer cells to increase their migration and ability form metastases. Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) well-studied inducer of EMT. We demonstrate that TGFβ potently stimulates hyaluronan synthesis via upregulation synthase 2 (HAS2) in NMuMG mammary epithelial cells. This stimulatory effect requires the kinase active type I receptor dependent on Smad signaling activation p38 mitogen-activated...
Progression of breast cancer implicates the degradation extracellular matrix (ECM) by metallo-proteinases (MMPs), a process with important consequences on growth and invasiveness cells in adjacent distant sites. The isoflavone, genistein--a natural inhibitor protein tyrosine kinase pathway--inhibits wide range vitro. aim this study was to investigate: i) expression mRNAs encoded for MMPs their endogenous inhibitors (TIMPs) associated pathogenesis metastatic potential cells; ii) effect...
Although the biological significance of proteoglycans (PGs) has previously been highlighted in multiple myeloma (MM), little is known about serglycin, which a hematopoietic cell granule PG. In this study, we describe expression and highly constitutive secretion serglycin several MM lines. Serglycin messenger RNA was detected six PGs were purified from conditioned medium four lines, substituted with 4-sulfated chondroitin sulfate identified as predominant Flow cytometry confocal microscopy...
