Msi1 confers resistance to TRAIL by activating ERK in liver cancer cells
To investigate TRAIL resistance mechanisms in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we isolated a stable TRAIL‐resistant sub‐population of the HCC cell line LH86, designated LH86‐TR. Differential activation of AKT was not responsible for acquisition of TRAIL resistance.

MSI1 Promotes the Expression of the GBM Stem Cell Marker CD44 by Impairing miRNA-Dependent Degradation [PDF]
The stem cell marker Musashi1 (MSI1) is highly expressed during neurogenesis and in glioblastoma (GBM). MSI1 promotes self-renewal and impairs differentiation in cancer and non-malignant progenitor cells. However, a comprehensive understanding of its role in promoting GBM-driving networks remains to be deciphered.

MSI1 and HDA6 function interdependently to control flowering time via chromatin modifications
The Plant Journal, 2021SUMMARYMULTICOPY SUPPRESSOR OF IRA1 (MSI1) is a conserved subunit of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), which mediates gene silencing by histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27Me3). Here, we demonstrated that MSI1 interacts with the RPD3‐like histone deacetylase HDA6 both in vitro and in vivo.

MSI1-like proteins: an escort service for chromatin assembly and remodeling complexes
Trends in Cell Biology, 2005MSI1-like WD40 repeat proteins are subunits of many protein complexes controlling chromatin dynamics. These proteins do not have any catalytic activity, but several recent studies using loss-of-function mutants established specific functions during development.

The Msi1-mTOR pathway drives the pathogenesis of mammary and extramammary Paget’s disease [PDF]
Mammary and extramammary Paget's Diseases (PD) are a malignant skin cancer characterized by the appearance of Paget cells. Although easily diagnosed, its pathogenesis remains unknown. Here, single-cell RNA-sequencing identified distinct cellular states, novel biomarkers, and signaling pathways - including mTOR, associated with extramammary PD ...

MSI1 overexpression in diffuse type of gastric cancer
Pathology - Research and Practice, 2013Being the third most frequent cause of cancer mortality in the world, gastric cancer is the major cause of cancer-related mortality in Iran. Musashi1 recognizes a motif in the 3'UTR of target mRNAs - involved in cell cycle regulation, proliferation and apoptosis - and represses the translation of the mRNAs.

Correlation Between Meis1 and Msi1 in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Journal of Gastrointestinal Cancer, 2016Homeobox (HOX) transcription factors are critical regulators of cell fate, stem cell functions, and gastrointestinal development. They require three-amino acid loop extension (TALE) homeodomain proteins such as Meis1 to enhance their transcriptional efficiencies.

Msi1 promotes tumor progression by epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in cervical cancer
Human Pathology, 2017Musashi1 (Msi1) is an RNA-binding protein that has been reported to be a pivotal regulator in tumorigenesis and progression in several cancers. However, its function and mechanism in cervical cancer is still unknown. In this study, Msi1 expression was found elevated in cervical cancers by immunohistochemistry and correlated with poor outcomes.

CAF-1 and MSI1-related proteins: linking nucleosome assembly with epigenetics
Trends in Plant Science, 2003A key question in developmental biology is how epigenetic states of gene activity are maintained faithfully through successive rounds of cell division. Recent observations in Arabidopsis thaliana point to an important and conserved role for chromatin assembly factor-1 and the MSI1 class of chromatin-related proteins in perpetuating epigenetic marks on ...

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common brain malignancy in adults, and currently available GBM treatments present several unique challenges. It is known that GBM involves cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) and tumor cells that aggressively invade normal brain tissues, and both cell types may cause resistance to radiotherapy (RT) and are thus ...
