LC3A, LC3B and Beclin-1 Expression in Gastric Cancer [PDF]
The current study examined the key proteins involved in autophagosome formation and their prognostic role in gastric cancer.Paraffin-embedded tissues from 121 consecutive patients treated with surgery for gastric cancer were analyzed immunohistochemically for the expression of autophagic proteins microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3A and

Obatoclax and Paclitaxel Synergistically Induce Apoptosis and Overcome Paclitaxel Resistance in Urothelial Cancer Cells [PDF]
Paclitaxel is a treatment option for advanced or metastatic bladder cancer after the failure of first-line cisplatin and gemcitabine, although resistance limits its clinical benefits.

IRF4 is a prognostic biomarker in cervical cancer. IRF4 enhances radiosensitivity and inhibits tumor growth via PI3K/AKT/mTOR‐mediated autophagy. IRF4 boosts radiation response in vitro and in vivo. ABSTRACT Interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4), a critical member of the IRF transcription factor family, harbors an elusive biological role in cervical ...

Autophagy-deficient breast cancer shows early tumor recurrence and escape from dormancy [PDF]
Breast cancer patients who initially respond to cancer therapies often succumb to distant recurrence of the disease. It is not clear why people with the same type of breast cancer respond to treatments differently; some escape from dormancy and relapse ...

Reversal of MPPa‐PDT Resistance in Osteosarcoma by Targeting ROCK2‐Mediated Autophagy
ROCK2 competes with MST1 to bind to the aa 28‐198 region of SAV1 and then regulates the Hippo pathway to affect autophagy, resulting in the resistance of OS to MPPa‐PDT. Targeted inhibition of ROCK2 by screening for J059‐0149 increases the sensitivity of osteosarcoma to MPPa‐PDT. ABSTRACT Osteosarcoma (OS) is a primary bone tumour that occurs mostly in

Regulation of Beclin 1-Mediated Autophagy by Oncogenic Tyrosine Kinases
Beclin 1 is a major regulator of autophagy, and it is a core component of the class III PI3K complexes. Beclin 1 is a highly conserved protein and its function is regulated in a number of ways, including post-translational modifications.

The Role of Oxidative Stress in Periodontitis
Oxidative stress is involved in multiple chemical reactions that take place in different intracellular organelles: mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes, autophagy, and aging, and can be influenced by exogenous factors: nutrition, physical activity, psychological status, environmental conditions, microbiome, and drugs.

Spinal cord injury induces upregulation of Beclin 1 and promotes autophagic cell death
Autophagy is a degradation of the cytoplasm and it induces autophagic cell death in several neurodegenerative conditions. Beclin 1, a Bcl-2-interacting protein, is known to be a promoter of autophagy.
