Tumor recurrence is often attributed to cancer stem cells (CSCs). We previously demonstrated that down-regulation of Pregnane X Receptor (PXR) decreases the chemoresistance CSCs and prevents colorectal recurrence. Currently, no PXR inhibitor usable in clinic. Here, we identify miR-148a as a targetable element upstream signaling CSCs, which when over-expressed expression impairs tumor relapse after chemotherapy mouse xenografts. then develop fluorescent reporter screen for activators...
Tests allowing the screening of large numbers enterobacterial strains for presence glucose oxidation pathway (glucose, gluconate, and 2-ketogluconate dehydrogenases) were devised or adapted. A total 506 representing 111 taxa (named species subspecies unnamed genomic groups) studied. The members genera Budvicia, Edwardsiella, Leminorella, Providencia, Xenorhabdus Citrobacter freundii, Erwinia carnegeana, carotovora, chrysanthemi, nigrifiuens, Salicis, Moellerella wisconsensis, Proteus...
In Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, fructose is transported and phosphorylated into 1-phosphate through a phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system. The nucleotide sequence of the fruA gene encoding system permease specific (EIIFru) was determined. produced by 1,6-bisphosphate 1-phosphofructokinase. This enzyme characterized corresponding (fruK) sequenced. Sequence comparisons revealed that FruK member new family ATP-binding proteins composed sugar (or sugar-phosphate)...
Abstract Extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffening, resulting from increased collagen deposition and cross-linking, is a key biophysical factor of the tumor microenvironment. Cutaneous melanoma deadly metastatic cancer. Its aggressiveness stems high intratumoral heterogeneity, plasticity cells, which transit melanocytic state to dedifferentiated therapy-resistant invasive phenotypes, characterized by mesenchymal and/or neural crest stem cell-like features. Phenotypic regulated stroma-derived...
