Insulin enhancer binding protein-1 (ISL-1), a LIM-homeodomain transcription factor, is essential for the heart, motor neuron and pancreas development. Recently, ISL-1 has been found in some types of human cancers. However, how exerts role tumor development not clear. The expression was assessed 211 lymphoma samples 23 normal lymph node samples. Immunohistochemistry results demonstrated markedly higher 75% non-Hodgkin (NHL) compared with that nodes or Hodgkin (HL) CCK-8 analysis, cell cycle...

Interleukin-8 (IL-8) serves an important function in chronic inflammation and cancer development; however, the underlying molecular mechanism(s) of IL-8 uterine cervical remains unclear. The present study investigated whether its receptors [IL-8 receptor (IL-8R)A IL-8RB] contributed to proliferative migratory abilities HeLa cells, also potential mechanisms. Results demonstrated that were detected levels IL-8RA significantly increased compared with those IL-8RB. Furthermore, level tissues was...
