Molecular classification of a complex structural rearrangement of the RB1 locus in an infant with sporadic, isolated, intracranial, sellar region retinoblastoma

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2021
Retinoblastoma is a childhood cancer of the retina involving germline or somatic alterations of the RB Transcriptional Corepressor 1 gene, RB1. Rare cases of sellar-suprasellar region retinoblastoma without evidence of ocular or pineal tumors have been ...

Aminoimidazole carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR) inhibits the growth of retinoblastoma in vivo by decreasing angiogenesis and inducing apoptosis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide-1-β-4-ribofuranoside (AICAR), an analog of AMP is widely used as an activator of AMP-kinase (AMPK), a protein that regulates the responses of the cell to energy change. Recently, we showed that AICAR-induced AMPK activation

Expression of MMP-14 and CD44 associated with proliferation of retinoblastoma cells

Medicine Science, 2019
Retinoblastoma is a the most common primary intraocular malignant tumor in childhood. The eexpressions of CD44 and MMP-14 and Their role in proliferation and migration cells appear crucial for retinoblastoma invasion.

Hematopoiesis specific loss of Cdk2 and Cdk4 results in increased erythrocyte size and delayed platelet recovery following stress

Haematologica, 2015
Mouse knockouts of Cdk2 and Cdk4 are individually viable whereas the double knockouts are embryonic lethal due to heart defects, and this precludes the investigation of their overlapping roles in definitive hematopoiesis.

Post-translational modifications on the retinoblastoma protein

Journal of Biomedical Science, 2022
The retinoblastoma protein (pRb) functions as a cell cycle regulator controlling G1 to S phase transition and plays critical roles in tumour suppression. It is frequently inactivated in various tumours.

Nitric oxide suppression by secreted frizzled-related protein 2 drives retinoblastoma

Cell Reports, 2023
Summary: Retinoblastoma is a cancer of the infant retina primarily driven by loss of the Rb tumor suppressor gene, which is undruggable. Here, we report an autocrine signaling, mediated by secreted frizzled-related protein 2 (SFRP2), which suppresses ...

Disruptive influence

eLife, 2013
Cachexia, a condition that kills about one-fifth of cancer patients, may be linked to Rb—a protein that is already linked to various cancers—moving from the cell nucleus to the cytoplasm.

ASSOCIATION OF RS2069502 CYCLIN-DEPENDENT KINASE 4 GENE WITH BREAST CANCER [PDF]

Euromediterranean Biomedical Journal, 2020
The goal of this project was to evaluate the association of candidate genetic variant rs2069502 of the CDK4 gene with breast cancer and the effect of variant genotypes on the serum concentration of CDK4 enzyme and consequently, on the occurrence of ...
