CRISPR/dCas9 systems can precisely control endogenous gene expression without interrupting host genomic sequence and have provided a novel feasible strategy for the treatment of cancers at transcriptional level. However, development CRISPR/dCas9-based anti-cancer therapeutics remains challenging due to conflicting requirements design delivery system: cationic membrane-binding surface facilitates tumor accumulation cellular uptake system, but hinders circulating stability in vivo. Here,...

Over 20% of cancer 'driver' genes encode chromatin regulators. Long noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs), which are dysregulated in various cancers, play a critical role dynamics and gene regulation by interacting with key epigenetic It has been previously reported that the lincRNA HOTAIR mediates recruitment polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) leading to aberrant transcriptional silencing tumor suppressor glioma breast cancer. Thus, can serve as promising therapeutic target. Herein, we identified...

Gambogic acid (GA) is a natural compound derived from Chinese herbs that has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for clinical trials in cancer patients; however, its molecular targets have not thoroughly studied. Here, we report GA inhibits tumor proteasome activity, with potency comparable to bortezomib but much less toxicity. First, acts as prodrug only gains proteasome-inhibitory function after being metabolized intracellular CYP2E1. Second, GA-induced inhibition...

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), WHO grade IV astrocytoma, is the most common primary neoplasm of central nervous system (CNS) and has highest malignancy mortality rates. The invasive nature GBM complicates surgical resection restricts chemotherapeutic access, contributing to poor patient prognosis. migration tumor cells closely related cell proliferation. acquisition migratory capability, in addition intracellular factors, proposed be a crucial mechanism during progression invasion. Using...

Antisense long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are reported to play a regulating role in carcinogenesis of various human malignancies. However, the function lncRNAs and their underlying mechanism renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is still unknown. The aims this study investigate expression lncRNA BX357664 RCC explore its lines. As result, was downregulated according previous microarray analysis qualitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. After upregulation BX357664, reduced migration, invasion,...
