Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most fatal human malignancies, with an overall 5-year survival rate <5%. Genetic analysis PDAC patient samples has shown that specific disease-associated mutations are correlated histologically defined stages neoplastic progression in epithelium. Activating KRAS almost uniformly present early-stage disease, subsequent inactivating p16INK4A, p53, and SMAD4 occurring more advanced lesions. In this study, we have tested...

Thyroid receptor‐interacting protein 13 (TRIP13), a of the AAA‐ATPase family, is upregulated in various human cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC). This study focused on inhibition TRIP13‐induced CRC progression and signalling by DCZ0415, small molecule targeting TRIP13. It demonstrated potent antitumour activity TRIP13‐deregulated cell lines, regardless their p53, KRAS, BRAF, epidermal growth factor receptor or microsatellite instability status. The treatment cells with DCZ0415...

Abstract Background Treatment with regorafenib, a multiple-kinase inhibitor, to manage metastatic colorectal cancers (mCRCs) shows modest improvement in overall survival but is associated severe toxicities. Thus, reduce regorafenib-induced toxicity, we used regorafenib at low concentration along dual JAK/HDAC small-molecule inhibitor (JAK/HDACi) leverage the advantages of both JAK and HDAC inhibition enhance antitumor activity. The therapeutic efficacy safety combination treatment was...

Gene knockout experiments in mice have suggested a hierarchical model of early B cell commitment wherein E2A proteins (E47 and E12) activate factor (Ebf1), which turn activates expression the factor, Pax5. In IL-7 receptor alpha (IL-7Ralpha) mice, development is blocked before B-lineage at prepro-B stage adult animals. IL-7Ralpha(-/-) cells, E47 expressed yet insufficient to transcriptionally putative downstream target gene, Ebf1. this study, we show that further increases cells fails Ebf1,...

The identification of colorectal cancer (CRC) molecular targets is needed for the development drugs that improve patient survival. We investigated functional role phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxylase, succinocarboxamide synthetase (PAICS), a de novo purine biosynthetic enzyme involved in DNA synthesis, CRC progression and metastasis by using cell animal models. Its clinical utility was assessed human samples. expression PAICS regulated miR-128 transcriptionally activated Myc cells....

In current study, we investigated TRIP13 experimental and involvement regulation WNT/β‐catenin EGFR signaling pathways. Evaluation formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) frozen tissues adenomas CRCs, along their corresponding normal samples, showed that was gradually increased phenotypic expression from adenoma to carcinoma overexpression CRCs...

Deposition, remodeling, and signaling of the extracellular matrix facilitate tumor growth metastasis. Here, we demonstrated that an enzyme, collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase, alpha polypeptide I (P4HA1), which is involved in synthesis deposition, had elevated expression colorectal cancers (CRCs) as compared to normal colonic tissues. The P4HA1 CRCs was independent patient's age, race/ethnicity, gender, pathologic stage grade, location, microsatellite instability (MSI) p53 status. By modulating...

Thyroid hormone receptor-interacting protein 13 (TRIP13) is involved in cancer progression, but its role pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) unknown. Thus, we assessed the expression, functional role, and mechanism of action TRIP13 PDAC. We further examined efficacy inhibitor, DCZ0415, alone or combination with gemcitabine on malignant phenotypes, tumor immune response. found that was overexpressed human PDACs relative to corresponding normal tissues. knockdown treatment PDAC cells...

Abstract In the US, majority of cancer samples analyzed are from white people, leading to biases in racial and ethnic treatment outcomes. Colorectal (CRC) incidence mortality rates high Alabama African Americans (AAs) Oklahoma American Indians (AIs). We hypothesized that differences between groups may partially explain these disparities. Thus, we compared transcriptomic profiles CRCs AAs, AIs, people both states. Compared AAs showed (a) higher expression cytokines vesicle trafficking toward...

Rare diseases are underrepresented in biomedical research, leading to insufficient awareness. Zhu-Tokita-Takenouchi-Kim (ZTTK) syndrome is a rare disease caused by genetic alterations that result heterozygous loss-of-function of SON. While ZTTK patients suffer from numerous symptoms, the lack model organisms hampers our understanding SON and this complex syndrome.
