Knockdown of prohibitin 2 promotes apoptosis in non-small cell lung cancer cell line A549 [PDF]
Objective To explore mechanism of prohibitin 2(PHB2) inhibition on the apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer cell line A549. Methods For stable knockdown of PHB2, A549 strain was infected with lentiviruses. A549 cells with PHB2 depletion were

Prohibitin-2 negatively regulates AKT2 expression to promote prostate cancer cell migration.
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a leading cause of cancer‑associated mortality in men; however, the factors that contribute to disease development have yet to be fully elucidated. Previous studies have suggested that prohibitin-2 (PHB2), which is a multifunctional protein that contributes to various cellular processes, is positively correlated with malignant ...

Prohibitin-2 Depletion Unravels Extra-Mitochondrial Functions at the Kidney Filtration Barrier [PDF]
Mitochondrial fusion is essential for maintenance of mitochondrial function and requires the prohibitin ring complex subunit prohibitin-2 (PHB2) at the mitochondrial inner membrane. Loss of the stomatin/PHB/flotillin/HflK/C (SPFH) domain containing protein PHB2 causes mitochondrial dysfunction and defective mitochondria-mediated signaling, which is ...
