GATA3, a transcription factor that regulates T lymphocyte differentiation and maturation, is exclusively expressed in early stage well differentiated breast cancers but not advanced invasive cancers. However, little understood regarding its activity the mechanisms underlying this differential expression Here, we employed GATA3-positive, non-invasive (MCF-7) GATA3-negative, (MDA-MB-231) cancer cells to define role transformation between these two distinct phenotypes. Ectopic of GATA3...

Tumor metastasis is a multistep pathological process involved in the final phase of tumor development. During this process, epithelium-derived cells undergo fibroblast-like transformation, referred to as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which contributes aggressive behavior tumors. We identify periostin, mesenchyme-specific gene product, contributor EMT and metastatic potential. Stable expression periostin transgene tumorigenic but non-metastatic 293T caused transformation...

Recent evidence has shown that glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs) can transdifferentiate into endothelial and vascular-like tumor cells. The latter pattern of vascularization indicates an alternative microvascular circulation known as vasculogenic mimicry (VM). However, it remains to be clarified how the GSC-driven VM makes a significant contribution vasculature. Here, we investigated 11 cases glioblastomas found most them consisted blood-perfused vascular channels coexpress mural cell...

Reduced production of nitric oxide (NO) in the cirrhotic liver results from a defect hepatic endothelial cell synthase (ecNOS) and appears to contribute high intrahepatic resistance portal hypertension typical cirrhosis. Therefore, we postulated that targeting heterologous NOS isoform sinusoidal cells or other perisinusoidal cells, such as stellate would counter NO reduce blood flow. Recombinant adenovirus (Ad) carrying neuronal gene (nNOS) targeted hepatocytes more efficiently than...

Carcinoma cells can acquire increased motility and invasiveness through epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). However, the significance of EMT in cancer metastasis has been controversial, exact fates functions vivo remain inadequately understood. Here, we tracked epithelial that underwent inducible or spontaneous various tumor transplantation models. Unlike cells, majority were specifically located perivascular space closely associated with blood vessels. markedly activated multiple...

Angiogenesis plays an important role in tumor development and metastasis, many cancer cells upregulate VEGF expression to promote angiogenesis. Silencing by RNA interference is expected be a promising strategy suppress the growth. However, low transfection efficiency instability are main barriers for small interfering (siRNA) delivery. In this study, we developed polycation liposome-encapsulated calcium phosphate nanoparticles (PLCP) siRNA delivery vivo. silencing effect MCF-7 was...

Abstract Background: Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the most common malignant tumor of biliary tract. Isoliquiritigenin (ISL) a natural compound with chalcone structure extracted from roots licorice and other plants. Relevant studies have shown that ISL has strong anti-tumor ability in various types tumors. However, research against GBC not been reported, which needs to be further investigated.

Soy isoflavones are natural tyrosine kinase inhibitors closely associated with decreased morbidity and mortality of various tumors. The activation kinases such as ERBB2 is the mechanism by which cholecystitis transforms into gallbladder cancer (GBC), therefore, it important to investigate relationship between long-term exposure soy occurrence progression GBC. This case-control study (n = 85 pairs) found that high level plasma isoflavone-genistein (GEN) was a lower risk (≥326.00 ng/mL...

Abstract Aberrant RNA alternative splicing in cancer generates varied novel isoforms and protein variants that facilitate progression. Here, we employed the advanced long-read full-length transcriptome sequencing on gallbladder normal tissues, tumors, cell lines to establish a comprehensive transcriptomic atlas. It is of note receptor tyrosine kinases were one most dynamic components with highly variable transcript, Erb-B2 kinase 2 (ERBB2) as prime representative. A designated ERBB2 i14e,...

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is involved in the pathogenesis of a number diseases, including wound healing. In cirrhosis, wounding response liver, circulating ET-1 levels are elevated; moreover, has potent effects on hepatic stellate cells, key effectors cirrhosis. this study, we have examined regulatory role ECE-1, critical enzyme synthesis, two major cellular sources ET-1. release from normal endothelial cells was 25-fold higher than that cells. However, after liver injury, increased but markedly...

Deep functional changes occurring within the endometrium during implantation are orchestrated by embryonic and maternal signals. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a major signal, plays critical role in initiation maintenance of pregnancy. Interleukin (IL) 1, one earliest signals, appears to exert direct impact on receptive induce molecular that essential for embryo implantation. Herein we investigate whether hCG can modulate endometrial stromal cell (ESC) receptivity IL1 window assess...
