Abstract Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a significant contributor to the global cancer burden, and its carcinogenic activity facilitated in part by HPV early protein 6 (E6), which interacts with E3-ligase E6AP, also known as UBE3A, promote degradation of tumor suppressor, p53. In this study, we present single-particle cryoEM structure full-length E6AP complex HPV16 E6 (16E6) p53, determined at resolution ~3.3 Å. Our reveals extensive protein-protein interactions between 16E6 explaining their...

Abstract Paxillin (PXN) gene mutations are associated with lung adenocarcinoma progression and PXN is known to be a target of microRNA-218 (miR-218). On this basis, we hypothesized that overexpression via miR-218 suppression may promote tumor metastasis predict survival relapse in non–small cell cancer (NSCLC). Expression 124 surgically resected tumors were evaluated by real-time PCR immunohistochemical analysis. The prognostic value expression on overall (OS) relapse-free (RFS) was analyzed...

Mutations in estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) that confer resistance to existing classes of endocrine therapies are detected up 30% patients who have relapsed during treatments. Because a significant proportion therapy-resistant breast cancer metastases continue be dependent on ERα signaling, there remains critical need develop the next generation antagonists can overcome aberrant activity. Through our drug-discovery efforts, we identified H3B-5942, which covalently inactivates both wild-type...

Abstract Inactivation of p53 by human papillomavirus 16/18 E6 plays a crucial role in cervical tumorigenesis. To investigate the involvement HPV16/18 lung tumorigenesis, association between HPV16 or HPV18 and protein expression 122 tumors was evaluated immunohistochemistry, data showed that correlated inversely with expression, which further confirmed tissue situ immunostaining. Real-time reverse transcription-PCR analysis indicated E6-positive had lower p21WAF1/CIP1 mdm2 mRNA levels than...

DDX3 alteration has been shown to participate in hepatocellular tumorigenesis via p21(WAF1/CIP1) (p21) deregulation. We observed that and p21 expression lung tumors was negatively associated with E6 expression. Therefore, the aim of this study clarify whether deregulation by an E6-inactivated p53 pathway would enhance tumor progression HPV-associated cancers.Real-time PCR, luciferase assays, immunoprecipitation, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) were performed determine regulated...

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections account for nearly all cervical cancer cases, which is the fourth most common in women worldwide. High-risk variants, including HPV16, drive tumorigenesis part by promoting degradation of tumor suppressor p53. This mediated HPV early protein 6 (E6), recruits E3 ubiquitin ligase E6AP and redirects its activity towards ubiquitinating Targeting interaction interface between E6 a promising modality to mitigate HPV-mediated In this study, we designed covalent...

Abstract Purpose: Fas ligand (FasL) −844T/C polymorphism (rs763110) has a demonstrated association with lung cancer risk. FasL −844CC higher expression been suggested to contribute tumor progression via immune escape. However, the impact of on clinical outcome non–small cell (NSCLC) remains be identified. Experimental Design: A total 385 adjacent normal tissues from patients NSCLC were collected determine by PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism. mRNA and protein in tumors...

Metabolic risk factors, such as obesity, fatty liver, high lipidemia, and diabetes mellitus are associated with increased for nonviral hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); however, few HCC studies have stratified patients according to underlying etiologies. From 2005 2011, 3,843 were recruited into the Taiwan Liver Cancer Network. Of these patients, 411 (10.69%) who negative hepatitis B virus (HBV), surface antigen, HBV DNA, anti‐hepatitis C (HCV) antibody classified non‐HBV non‐HCV (NBNC)‐HCC....

The patient underwent segmental resection regional lymph node dissection for tumor mass that measured 7.5 cm diameter right lobe, with lymphadenopathy. Histologically, hepatic was composed predominantly small-cell NEC, but admixed small island moderately differentiated HCC. speculate NEC originated from poorly clone an HCC differentiation, this now at end...

Abstract α‐Klotho, an aging‐related protein found in the kidney, parathyroid gland, and choroid plexus, acts as essential co‐receptor with fibroblast growth factor 23 receptor complex to regulate serum phosphate vitamin D levels. Decreased levels of α‐Klotho are a hallmark age‐associated diseases. Detecting or labeling biological milieu has long been challenge, however, hampering understanding its role. Here, we developed branched peptides by single‐shot parallel automated fast‐flow...
