The miR-34 family members are direct transcriptional targets of tumor suppressor p53, and loss function can impair p53-mediated cell cycle arrest apoptosis. A potentially functional SNP rs4938723 (T > C) was found in the promoter region pri-miR-34b/c (423 bp from transcription start site), located CpG island might affect factor GATA binding therefore expression. In our study, we hypothesized that SNPs miR-34b/c TP53 Arg72Pro may independently or jointly contribute to primary hepatocellular...

Estrogen receptor α (ERα) is initially expressed in the majority of breast cancers and promotes estrogen-dependent cancer progression by regulating transcription genes linked to cell proliferation. ERα status clinical importance, as ERα-positive can be successfully treated adjuvant therapy with antiestrogens or aromatase inhibitors. Complications arise from frequent development drug resistance that might caused multiple alterations, including components signaling, during tumor metastasis....

Due to its potential adverse effects on human health, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), one of the once widely used legacy per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), has been recently replaced by novel alternatives including hexafluoropropylene-oxide-dimer-acid (GenX) ammonium 4,8-dioxa-3H-perfluorononanoate (ADONA). These alternative PFASs are detected in water exposed workers. can enter organs like thyroids, however, it is yet unknown whether new safer than PFOA. In current study, we...

Estrogen receptor alpha (ER alpha) is expressed in the majority of breast cancers and promotes estrogen-dependent cancer progression. ER positive can be well controlled by modulators, such as tamoxifen. However, tamoxifen resistance commonly observed altered signaling. Thus, further understanding molecular mechanisms, which regulates signaling, important to improve therapy. SMURF1 protein expression levels were measured western blot, while target genes real-time PCR. WST-1 assay was used...

Abstract Breast cancer is the most common malignancy for women worldwide, while Triple Negative Cancer (TNBC) accounts 20% in all patients. Compared with estrogen receptor positive breast cancer, which could be effectively controlled via endocrine therapy, TNBC more aggressive and worse prognosis. It therefore urgent necessary to develop a novel therapeutic strategy treatment. Recent studies identified Hippo signaling highly activated TNBC, driving pathway progression. In our study, we...
