Significance Cancer stem cells (CSCs) exhibit enhanced chemo/radiotherapy resistance, and their survival following cancer treatment is believed to be responsible for tumor recurrence metastasis. Thus, understanding the mechanisms through which CSCs survive conventional chemotherapy essential identification of new therapeutic strategies prevent relapse. Our findings that ovarian cisplatin elevated expression polymerase η represent an opportunity eradicate improve patients. In addition, miR-93...
Desmosomes are intercellular junctions that confer strong cell-cell adhesion, thus conferring resistance against mechanical stress on epithelial tissues. A body of evidence indicates decreased expression desmosomal proteins is associated with poor prognosis in various cancers. As a key component plaque proteins, the functional role desmoplakin (DSP) cancer not yet elucidated. Here, we reported anti-tumorigenic activity DSP non-small cell lung (NSCLC). We found by DNA methylation was...
Cancer stem cells (CSC) play a central role in cancer metastasis and development of drug resistance. miRNA are important regulating CSC properties considered potential therapeutic targets. Here we report that miR-328-3p (miR-328) is significantly upregulated ovarian CSC. High expression miR-328 maintained by directly targeting DNA damage binding protein 2, which has been shown previously to inhibit Reduced activity ERK signaling CSC, mainly due low level reactive oxygen species, contributed...
The level of microRNA-93 (miR-93) in tumors has been recently reported to be negatively correlated with survival lung cancer patients. Considering that the most devastating aspect is metastasis, which can promoted by transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), we sought determine whether miR-93 involved this process. Here, report a previously unidentified target miR-93, neural precursor cell expressed developmentally downregulated gene 4-like...
Lactobacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) has been globally regarded as antibiotic alternative in animal farming the past few years. However, potential function of L. broilers not systemically explored. In this study, a total 560 one-day-old yellow-feathered were randomly divided into 3 groups, fed with basal diet and drank HJZW08 (LP) at concentration 0 (CON), 1000 × 10^5 (LP1000), 2000 CFU/L (LP2000) for 70 d. Results showed that body weight (BW), average daily gain (ADG), feed intake (ADFI),...
Desmocollin 3 (DSC3), a member of the cadherin superfamily and integral component desmosomes, is involved in carcinogenesis. However, role DSC3 colorectal cancer (CRC) has not yet been established. expression CRC cell lines was analysed by RT–PCR western blotting. Methylation status examined demethylation tests, methylation-specific PCR, bisulphite sequencing (BS). The regulatory p53 investigated transfection. downregulated cells at mRNA protein levels. restored five out seven after...
Blood–brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction has been suggested to play an important role in epilepsy. However, the mechanism mediating transition from cerebrovascular damage epilepsy remains unknown. Here, we report that endothelial cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) is a central regulator of neuronal excitability. Endothelial-specific Cdk5 knockout led spontaneous seizures mice. Knockout mice showed increased chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (Cxcl1) expression, decreased astrocytic glutamate...
Desmosomes are intercellular junctions that confer strong cell–cell adhesion. Altered expression of desmocollin 3 (DSC3), a member the desmosomal cadherin family, was found in various cancers; however, its functional involvement carcinogenesis has not yet been elucidated. Expression/localization DSC3 analyzed by real-time reverse transcription–PCR, western blotting, immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry. Methylation status examined demethylation tests, methylation-specific PCR...
Discretely orchestrated chromatin condensation is important for chromosome protection from DNA damage. However, it still unclear how different states affect the formation and repair of nucleotide excision (NER) substrates, e.g. ultraviolet (UV)-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD) (6-4) pyrimidone photoproducts (6-4PP), as well cisplatin-induced intrastrand crosslinks (Pt-GG). Here, by using immunofluorescence immunoprecipitation assays, we have demonstrated that CPD, which cause...
The expression of DNA damage-binding protein 2 (DDB2) has been linked to the prognosis ovarian cancer and its underlying transcription regulatory function was proposed contribute favorable treatment outcome. By applying gene microarray analysis, we discovered neural precursor cell expressed, developmentally downregulated 4-Like (NEDD4L) as a previously unidentified downstream regulated by DDB2. Mechanistic investigation demonstrated that DDB2 can bind promoter region NEDD4L recruit enhancer...
Abstract HOPX acts as a tumour suppressor in various cancers. However, the regulation of human lung cancer well mechanism underlying its tumour‐suppressive function has not yet been elucidated. Here we investigated epigenetic and molecular by which exerts growth inhibitory effects. We found that was down‐regulated 12 out 13 cell lines 69 120 primary tumours at mRNA protein levels. Patients with adenocarcinoma ( ADC ) exhibited significantly more positive staining compared squamous carcinoma...

Objective Desmosomes are intercellular junctions that confer strong cell–cell adhesion. Two main members of desmosomal cadherins, desmogleins (DSGs) and desmocollins (DSCs), involved in carcinogenesis. However, their role human lung cancer remained elusive.

Hypoxia contributes to a cascade of inflammatory response mechanisms in kidneys that result the development renal interstitial fibrosis and subsequent chronic failure. Nonetheless, kidney possesses self-protection mechanism under certain degree hypoxia this its adaptation hypoxia. As hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-vascular endothelial growth (VEGF) axis is key pathway for neovascularization, activation target therapies.Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed normobaric subdivided into three groups,...
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by its nutrient-scavenging ability, crucial for tumor progression. Here, we investigated the roles of caveolae-mediated endocytosis (CME) in PDAC Analysis patient data across diverse datasets revealed a strong association high caveolin-1 (Cav-1) expression with higher histologic grade, most aggressive molecular subtypes, and worse clinical outcomes. Cav-1 loss markedly promoted longer overall tumor-free survival genetically engineered...
