The adenomatous polyposis coli protein unambiguously localizes to microtubule plus-ends and is involved in establishing parallel arrays of microtubule bundles in highly polarised epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Loss of full-length adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein correlates with the development of colon cancers in familial and sporadic cases. In addition to its role in regulating ß-catenin levels in the Wnt signaling pathway, the APC protein is ...

Epstein-Barr virus infection of polarized epithelial cells via the basolateral surface by memory B cell-mediated transfer infection.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2011
Epstein Barr virus (EBV) exhibits a distinct tropism for both B cells and epithelial cells. The virus persists as a latent infection of memory B cells in healthy individuals, but a role for infection of normal epithelial is also likely.

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability. Figure created and edited with BioRender.com.

Activation of interferon regulatory factor-3 via toll-like receptor 3 and immunomodulatory functions detected in A549 lung epithelial cells exposed to misplaced U1-snRNA

open access: yes, 2009
U1-snRNA is an integral part of the U1 ribonucleoprotein pivotal for pre-mRNA splicing. Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling has recently been associated with immunoregulatory capacities of U1-snRNA.

IL-37 attenuated HPV induced inflammation and growth of oral epithelial cells via regulating autophagy

open access: yesHeliyon
This study investigated the impact of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) on inflammation and growth in oral epithelial cells, with a focus on the role of Interleukin-37 (IL37). Oral epithelial cells, including HOEC and HSC-3 cells, were employed in the research.

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.

Investigating the properties of cancer stem cells and epithelial to mesenchymal transition in human prostate cancer

open access: yes, 2012
In recent years, the cancer stem cell hypothesis has emerged as a compelling but controversial model of cancer progression. Contrary to the clonal evolution model, the cancer stem cell hypothesis postulates that, akin to normal tissues, tumours are ...

Uptake and cytotoxicity of citrate-coated gold nanospheres : comparative studies on human endothelial and epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The use of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) for diagnostic applications and for drug and gene-delivery is currently under intensive investigation. For such applications, biocompatibility and the absence of cytotoxicity of AuNPs is essential. Although generally

E2A selectively regulates TGF‐β–induced apoptosis in KRAS‐mutant non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Ability to induce apoptosis by TGF‐β is frequently lost in advanced lung adenocarcinoma despite intact TGF‐β signaling. We identify E2A as a mutant KRAS–dependent mediator of resistance to TGF‐β–induced apoptosis. TGF‐β induces E2A via SMAD3 in mutant KRAS cells, and E2A silencing restores apoptosis and enhances radiation response in cell lines ...

Leukotriene synthesis by epithelial cells.

open access: yesHistology and histopathology, 2003
Leukotrienes (LTs) are intercellular signaling molecules that evoke a variety of responses. They are best known as potent promoters of inflammation. Normally, LTs are produced primarily by leukocytes. As a result, current models regarding the production of LTs in the context of disease focus on the leukocytes as the site of production. Structural cells,
