Systematic Profiling of Alternative Splicing Events in Ovarian Cancer
Alternative splicing (AS) is significantly related to the development of tumor and the clinical outcome of patients. In this study, our aim was to systematically analyze the survival-related AS signal in ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV) and ...

The spliceosome, a potential Achilles heel of MYC-driven tumors [PDF]
Alterations in RNA splicing are frequent in human tumors. Two recent studies of lymphoma and breast cancer have identified components of the spliceosome - the core splicing machinery - that are essential for malignant transformation driven by the ...

PHD finger protein 5A promoted lung adenocarcinoma progression via alternative splicing
Alternative splicing (AS) and the regulation of AS by splicing factors play critical roles in cancer. Plant homeodomain (PHD)–finger domain protein PHF5A, a critical splicing factor involved in AS, has been demonstrated to play an oncogenic role in ...

USP15 regulates dynamic protein-protein interactions of the spliceosome through deubiquitination of PRP31. [PDF]
Post-translational modifications contribute to the spliceosome dynamics by facilitating the physical rearrangements of the spliceosome. Here, we report USP15, a deubiquitinating enzyme, as a regulator of protein-protein interactions for the spliceosome ...

Pharmacologic ascorbate (vitamin C) increases ROS, disrupts cellular metabolism, and induces DNA damage in CRPC cells. These effects sensitize tumors to PARP inhibition, producing synergistic growth suppression with olaparib in vitro and significantly delayed tumor progression in vivo. Pyruvate rescue confirms ROS‐dependent activity.

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

N6-Methyladenosine-related alternative splicing events play a role in bladder cancer
This study investigated the role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and alternative splicing (AS) in bladder cancer (BLCA). The BLCA-related RNA expression profiles and AS events were downloaded from the UCSC Xena and SpliceSeq databases, respectively ...
