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

Molecular 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.

DDIT3/CHOP and the sarcoma fusion oncoprotein FUS-DDIT3/TLS-CHOP bind cyclin-dependent kinase 2

BMC Cell Biology, 2009
Background The DDIT3 gene encodes a transcription factor belonging to the CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP) family. It is normally expressed at very low levels but is activated by cellular stress conditions and induces G1 arrest and, in some cell ...

Modeling initiation of Ewing sarcoma in human neural crest cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Ewing sarcoma family tumors (ESFT) are aggressive bone and soft tissue tumors that express EWS-ETS fusion genes as driver mutations. Although the histogenesis of ESFT is controversial, mesenchymal (MSC) and/or neural crest (NCSC) stem cells have been ...

The oncogenic fusion protein TAZ::CAMTA1 promotes genomic instability and senescence through hypertranscription

Communications Biology, 2023
Abstract TAZ::CAMTA1 is a fusion protein found in over 90% of Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma (EHE), a rare vascular sarcoma with an unpredictable disease course. To date, how TAZ::CAMTA1 initiates tumour formation remains unexplained.

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

Molecular 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 ...

Protein transduction: A novel tool for tissue regeneration [PDF]

, 2002
Tissue regeneration in humans is limited and excludes vitals organs like heart and brain. Transformation experiments with oncogenes like T antigen have shown that retrodifferentiation of the respective cells is possible but hard to control. To bypass the

PTPROt Inactivates the Oncogenic Fusion Protein BCR/ABL and Suppresses Transformation of K562 Cells [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
Chronic myelogenous leukemia is typified by constitutive activation of the c-abl kinase as a result of its fusion to the breakpoint cluster region (BCR). Because the truncated isoform of protein-tyrosine phosphatase receptor-type O (PTPROt) is specifically expressed in hematopoietic cells, we tested the possibility that it could potentially ...

CD47 promotes mitogen‐activated protein kinase and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition molecular programs to drive prometastatic phenotypes in non‐small cell lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in immune evasion, this study identified that CD47 drives tumor‐intrinsic signaling in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptomic profiling and functional studies revealed that CD47 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and metastasis through an ERK–EMT signaling axis.

Recombinant production of the therapeutic peptide lunasin

Microbial Cell Factories, 2012
Background Lunasin is a chemopreventive peptide produced in a number of plant species. It comprises a helical region with homology to a region of chromatin binding proteins, an Arg-Gly-Asp cell adhesion motif and eight aspartic acid residues.

Identification of cooperating genetic events in acute leukemia [PDF]

, 2009
The genetic alterations associated with acute leukemia can be divided into two functional groups. The class I mutations enhance cellular proliferation and survival by constitutive activation of mainly protein tyrosine kinases signaling pathways.
