Partial FAK suppression promotes tumor growth, an effect reversed by macrophage p110δ PI3K inactivation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Partial inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can paradoxically promote tumor growth, rather than simply producing a weaker antitumor effect than that observed with strong FAK suppression. In breast cancer and melanoma models, targeting p110δ PI3K, particularly in macrophages, counteracted these tumor‐promoting effects, highlighting the importance ...

Optimal Electroporation Condition for Small Interfering RNA Transfection into MDA-MB-468 Cell Line

open access: yesIranian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2012
Background: Electroporation is a valuable tool for small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery into cells because it efficiently transforms a wide variety of cell types.

Farnesoid X receptor represses hepatic lipase gene expression

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2004
The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a nuclear receptor that regulates gene expression in response to bile acids (BAs). FXR plays a central role in BA, cholesterol, and lipoprotein metabolism.

Regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1 by p53‐ΔNp63 crosstalk modulates the DNA damage response and therapeutic efficacy in HNSCC

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) p53 and p63 exert opposite roles on the transcription regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1. Under basal conditions, p53 levels are low and p63 represses NEAT1 expression. Upon genotoxic stress, p53 is rapidly induced, displacing p63 from the NEAT1 promoter leading to NEAT1 transcriptional activation and ...

A large-scale chemical modification screen identifies design rules to generate siRNAs with high activity, high stability and low toxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The use of chemically synthesized short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) is currently the method of choice to manipulate gene expression in mammalian cell culture, yet improvements of siRNA design is expectably required for successful application in vivo ...

Small Interfering RNA in Kidney Diseases: Promises and Limitations

open access: yesKidney and Dialysis
Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are short, double-stranded RNA molecules that play a crucial role in the regulation of gene expression, particularly through a natural process called RNA interference (RNAi).

p190A/ARHGAP35 and p190B/ARHGAP5 proteins in endometrial cancer: a novel cancer‐relevant paralog interplay

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

Availability-Driven Design of Hairpin Fuels and Small Interfering Strands for Leakage Reduction in Autocatalytic Networks

open access: yes, 2020
DNA-based circuits and computational tools offer great potential for advanced biomedical and technological applications. However, leakage, which is the production of an output in the absence of an input, widely exists in DNA network. As a new approach to

A Simple and Innovative Method for Cell Membrane Passing the Small Interfering RNA (siRNA) in Eukaryotic Cells; Toxoplasma Gondii as an Experience

open access: yesمجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2017
Background: Eukaryotic cells have membrane organelles. Due to the high prevalence of toxoplasmosis and lack of effective drugs especially on dormant cystic stages, we aimed adding small interfering RNA (siRNA) in culture medium on the proliferation ...

SPHINX31 acts as a SRPK1 inhibitor targeting the ATR/DNA‐PKcs/CHK1 replicative checkpoint to inhibit cell growth in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The kinase SRPK1 directly interacts with the protein TOPBP1 and regulates the pre‐mRNA splicing of WIZ thereby contributing to the activation of the ATR/CHK1 replicative checkpoint in response to replicative stress. This allows cancer cells' genomic stability and survival.
