VIP1 response elements mediate mitogen-activated protein kinase 3-induced stress gene expression [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009
The plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens transforms plant cells by delivering its T-DNA into the plant cell nucleus where it integrates into the plant genome and causes tumor formation. A key role of VirE2-interacting protein 1 (VIP1) in the nuclear import of T-DNA during Agrobacterium ...

Dual targeting of RET and SRC synergizes in RET fusion‐positive cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Despite the strong activity of selective RET tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), resistance of RET fusion‐positive (RET+) lung cancer and thyroid cancer frequently occurs and is mainly driven by RET‐independent bypass mechanisms. Son et al. show that SRC TKIs significantly inhibit PAK and AKT survival signaling and enhance the efficacy of RET TKIs in ...

MTA2 silencing attenuates the metastatic potential of cervical cancer cells by inhibiting AP1-mediated MMP12 expression via the ASK1/MEK3/p38/YB1 axis

Cell Death and Disease, 2021
Metastasis-associated protein 2 (MTA2) is a transcription factor that is highly associated with matrix metalloproteinase 12 (MMP12). Thus, we hypothesized that MTA2 may regulate MMP12 expression and is involved in cervical cancer metastasis.

Redox regulation meets metabolism: targeting PRDX2 to prevent hepatocellular carcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PRDX2 acts as a central redox hub linking metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH) to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In normal hepatocytes, PRDX2 maintains redox balance and metabolic homeostasis under oxidative stress. In contrast, during malignant transformation, PRDX2 promotes oncogenic signaling, stemness, and tumor initiation ...

p38 regulates the tumor suppressor PDCD4 via the TSC-mTORC1 pathway

Cell Stress, 2021
Programmed cell death protein 4 (PDCD4) exerts critical functions as tumor suppressor and in immune cells to regulate inflammatory pro-cesses. The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) promotes degradation of PDCD4 via mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (

Identification of Mitogen-activated Protein (MAP) Kinase-activated Protein Kinase-3, a Novel Substrate of CSBP p38 MAP Kinase [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
CSBP p38 is a mitogen-activated protein kinase that is activated in response to stress, endotoxin, interleukin 1, and tumor necrosis factor. Using a catalytically inactive mutant (D168A) of human CSBP2 as the bait in a yeast two-hybrid screen, we have identified and cloned a novel kinase which shares approximately 70% amino acid identity to mitogen ...

Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Mechanism of Na+/Ca2+ Exchanger Activation by Hydrogen Peroxide in Guinea-Pig Ventricular Myocytes

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
Using the whole-cell voltage clamp, we examined the mechanism of activation of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in isolated guinea-pig cardiac ventricular myocytes. Exposure to H2O2 increased the NCX current.
