Concerns were increasingly raised that several types of cancers overexpressed the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2 (Nrf2), which contributed strikingly to cancer biological capabilities and chemoresistance. However, role Nrf2 in tumor vascular biology had yet be mechanistically determined. Here, we investigated involvement glioblastoma (GB) angiogenesis hypoxia. First, detected overexpression correlated its protein level with microvessel density (MVD) human GB tissues. Then, established...

Transfer RNA-derived RNA fragments (tRFs) belong to non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) discovered in most carcinomas. Although some articles have demonstrated the characteristics of tRFs gastric carcinoma (GC), underlying mechanisms still need be elucidated. Meanwhile, it was reported that MAPK pathway momentous GC progression. Thus we focused on investigating whether tRF-Glu-TTC-027 could act as a key role progression with regulation pathway. We collected data tRNA-derived expression profile from six...

The UHRF 1 protein is pivotal for DNA methylation and heterochromatin formation, leading to decreased expressions of tumor suppressor genes contributing tumorigenesis. However, the factors that modulate expression in colorectal cancer ( CRC ) remain unclear. Here we showed that, compared with corresponding normal tissues, was upregulated micro RNA ‐9 (miR‐9) downregulated tissues. inversely correlated overall survival rates patients . Overexpression miR‐9 cell lines significantly attenuated...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly metastatic subtype, and the primary systemic treatment strategy involves conventional chemotherapy. DC-STAMP domain containing 1-antisense 1 (DCST1-AS1) long non-coding RNA that promotes TNBC migration invasion. Studying role of DCST1-AS1 in promoting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) chemoresistance will provide new for therapy. In present study, we found regulates expression or secretion EMT-related proteins E-cadherin, snail family...

BackgroundChemoresistance is a major obstacle for the effective treatment of lung adenocarcinoma (LAD). Forkhead box (FOX) proteins have been demonstrated to play critical roles in promoting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and chemoresistance. However, whether FOX contribute acquisition EMT chemoresistance LAD remains largely unknown.MethodsFOX-A1 expression was measured cells tissues by qRT-PCR.

Metabolic reprogramming is an emerging hallmark and promising therapeutic target in cancer, fueling malignant cells regulating the tumor microenvironment as a metabolic checkpoint. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), aggressive subtype with poor prognosis, marked by high recurrence rates chemotherapy resistance. However, heterogeneity cell-specific profiles TNBC remain underexplored. In this study, we analyzed expression prognostic impact of 87 pathways involving 1,668 genes, identifying...

Abstract Synthetic lethality (SL) has emerged as a highly promising therapeutic strategy, gaining significant attention in the field of cancer treatment recent years. The principle behind SL is that simultaneous loss or inhibition two genes results cell death, while only one gene does not. drugs exploit this mechanism by targeting partner an already inactivated mutated cells, inducing their death. This approach allows for precise genetic vulnerabilities specific to sparing normal tissues...

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are on the rise, but unfortunately, only a small percentage of patients benefit from them in long term. Thus, it is crucial to identify biomarkers that can forecast efficacy immunotherapy. We retrospectively studied 224 with NSCLC who underwent anti-PD-1 therapy. The role and clinical characteristics were assessed prognostic model. Only 14.3% had both programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumor mutational burden (TMB)...
