Opposing Roles of Wild-type and Mutant p53 in the Process of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
The central role of an aberrantly activated EMT program in defining the critical features of aggressive carcinomas is well documented and includes cell plasticity, metastatic dissemination, drug resistance, and cancer stem cell-like phenotypes.

Background: Viral oncogenes and mutated proto-oncogenes are potent drivers of cancer malignancy. Downstream of the oncogenic trigger are alterations in protein properties that give rise to cellular transformation and the acquisition of malignant cellular

TNF-alpha inhibition ameliorates HDV-induced liver damage in a mouse model of acute severe infection
Background & Aims: HDV infection induces the most severe form of human viral hepatitis. However, the specific reasons for the severity of the disease remain unknown.

Intracellular trafficking plays a critical role in the functioning of highly polarized cells, such as neurons. Transport of mRNAs, proteins, and other molecules to synaptic terminals maintains contact between neurons and ensures the transmission of nerve

Galectin genes: Regulation of expression
In this review we have summarized the more recent studies on the expression of mammalian galectins. One interesting observation that can be made is that in most of microarrays and/or differential display analysis performed in recent years one or more galectins have been picked up.

SWI/SNF catalytic subunits’ switch drives resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in ARID1A-mutated cells
The mechanism of resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in cancers with inactivating SWI/SNF mutations is unknown. Here, the authors demonstrate that the switch of the SWI/SNF catalytic subunits from SMARCA4 to SMARCA2 drives resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in ...

Treslin/Ticrr is required for the initiation of DNA replication and binds to MTBP (Mdm2 Binding Protein). Here, we show that in Xenopus egg extract, MTBP forms an elongated tetramer with Treslin containing two molecules of each protein.

Nutritional regulation of gene expression
Genes are regulated by complex arrays of response elements that influence the rate of transcription. Nutrients and hormones either act directly to influence these rates or act indirectly through specialized signaling pathways. Metabolites of vitamins A and D, fatty acids, some sterols, and zinc are among the nutrients that influence transcription ...

The human lncRNA LINC-PINT inhibits tumor cell invasion through a highly conserved sequence element
Background It is now obvious that the majority of cellular transcripts do not code for proteins, and a significant subset of them are long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs).

A lncRNA-SWI/SNF complex crosstalk controls transcriptional activation at specific promoter regions
SWI/SNF complexes regulate chromatin architecture and gene expression. Here the authors report the RNA interactome of SMARCB1-containing SWI/SNF complexes, showing the function of SMARCB1-interacting long noncoding RNA SWINGN in transcriptional ...
