Further study demonstrates CD146 promotes tumor cell radioresistance vitro and vivo. Specifically, report underlying...
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) achieves high-level resistance against β-lactam antibiotics through the expression of penicillin-binding protein 2a (PBP2a), which features a closed active site that impedes antibiotic binding. Herein, we implemented strategy combines drug repurposing with synergistic therapy to identify potential inhibitors targeting PBP2a's allosteric from an FDA-approved database. Initially, retrospective verifications were conducted, employing different...
GATA transcription factors are zinc finger DNA binding proteins that activate during development and cell differentiation. To date, 7 members of family have been reported. However, the expression patterns exact roles distinct contributing to tumorigenesis progression breast cancer (BC) remain be elucidated. Here, we studied transcripts in a variety tumor types compared with normal controls using ONCOMINE GOBO databases, along their corresponding profiles an array lines through CCLE analysis....
Notch3 and GATA binding protein 3 (GATA-3) have been, individually, shown to maintain luminal phenotype inhibit epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancers. In the present study, we report that expression positively correlates with of GATA-3, both are associated estrogen receptor-α (ERα) cancer cells. We demonstrate vitro vivo suppressed EMT metastasis by activating GATA-3 transcription. Furthermore, knockdown downregulated promoted EMT; while overexpression intracellular...

Growing evidence has indicated that the long noncoding RNA H19 (lncRNA H19), frequently deregulated in almost all tumor types tested, acted as a pivotal contributor to both cancer initiation and progression. However, role of lncRNA human papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) remains controversial. The aim study was investigate expression potential function PTC.The level determined by quantitative real-time (RT)-PCR analyses 58 PTC tissue samples their paired paracancerous samples. interference,...
