Alternative translation of the proto-oncogene c-myc by an internal ribosome entry site

, 1997
The human proto-oncogene c-myc encodes two proteins, c-Myc1 and c-Myc2, from two initiation codons, CUG and AUG, respectively. It is also transcribed from four alternative promoters (P0, P1, P2, and P3), giving rise to different RNA 5'-leader sequences ...

Oncogenic KRAS Rewires Stress Granule Dynamics: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stress granules (SGs) are dynamic, membrane‐less structures that form in response to various cellular stresses, including metabolic, oxidative, and therapeutic challenges. They function as adaptive hubs and reorganize protein synthesis and signaling networks to help cells survive under stress. In cancer, these condensates are often hijacked to

miR‐9 Restricts Insulin Secretion by Targeting Rab34, Which Mediates Lysosomal Degradation of Proinsulin

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insulin secretion is a complex, vesicular transport process. Rab34 is a key regulator of intracellular vesicle transport; however, its role in insulin secretion has not yet been reported. miRNA‐9 is vital for the development and progression of the diagnosis and treatment of type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to investigate whether miR‐9 targets

LINC01605 Predicts the Poor Prognosis of Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer and Promotes Chemotherapy Resistance by Regulating miR‐7111‐5p/ELK1

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is characterized by high incidence, mortality, and poor patient prognosis, with chemotherapy resistance being a common challenge. This research intends to identify key molecules involved in NSCLC and elucidate the regulatory role of the LINC01605/miR‐7111‐5p/ELK1 axis in chemotherapy resistance. LINC01605 and

The receptor tyrosine kinase RET is a Hsp90 client protein and is degraded upon exposure to 17-AAG.

, 2009
Molecular alterations of the receptor tyrosin kinase RET are involved in the pathogenesis of thyroid cancer. Germline point mutations in the extracellular and intracellular domains of the receptor are responsible of a group of inherited cancer diseases ...

WDR72 Drives Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression by Inhibiting Autophagy via the PI3K/Akt/mTOR Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is an aggressive malignancy with a high rate of recurrence and metastasis, necessitating the identification of novel therapeutic targets. WD repeat‐containing protein 72 (WDR72) has been linked to various cancers, but its specific biological function and underlying mechanism in ESCC remain largely ...

Mass Spectrometry Insights Into Post‐Translational Modifications in Extracellular Vesicles

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐enclosed structures secreted by virtually all living cells, serving as essential mediators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological processes. There is growing interest in their potential applications as biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and drug delivery systems, which ...

LKB1 Loss Sensitizes Lung Tumor Spheres to Mitomet‐Induced Ferroptosis, and These Effects are Enhanced by mTOR Inhibition

Molecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Owing to their robust antioxidant defense mechanisms, cancer stem‐like cells (CSCs) maintain a low level of oxidative stress, which is crucial for preserving stemness and pluripotency. Therefore, agents that either directly generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) or inhibit the antioxidant defense systems can selectively induce oxidative cell ...

Genetic analysis of primary lung interdigitating dendritic cell sarcomas

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Interdigitating dendritic cell sarcomas (IDCSs) are rare tumors that commonly arise in the hematopoietic system and rarely outside. The genetic drivers of IDCS carcinogenesis are unknown; therefore, therapeutic options are limited. We investigated somatic gene mutations and copy‐number alterations (CNAs) in nine IDCSs arising in the lung by ...

Identification of the product of two oncogenic rearranged forms of the RET proto-oncogene in papillary thyroid carcinomas.

, 1992
In papillary thyroid carcinomas, we have identified two tumor-specific rearrangements of the RET proto-oncogene leading to the formation of different transforming fusion products sharing the tyrosine kinase (tk) domain of the proto-oncogene and ...
