The Skp1-Cul1-F-box protein (SCF) E3 ligase complex is one of the largest ubiquitin E3 ligase families. FBXL19, a F-box protein in SCFFBXL19 E3 ligase complex, regulates a variety of cellular responses including cell migration. We have shown that FBXL19 is not stable and its degradation is mediated by the ubiquitin-proteasome system, while the ubiq...

Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is endowed with the oncolytic ability to kill tumor cells, while rarely causing side effects in normal cells. Both estrogen receptor α (ERα) and the G protein estrogen receptor (GPER) modulate multiple biological activities in response to estrogen, including apoptosis in breast cancer (BC) cells. Here, we investigated ...

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a blood cancer where undifferentiated myeloid cells are increased in the bone marrow and peripheral blood. As AML is dangerous and shows poor prognosis, many researchers categorised the relevant cytogenetic factors according to risk and prognosis. However, the specific reasons for poor cytogenetic factors remain unk...

Diabetic cardiomyopathy can cause cardiac dysfunction and eventually lead to heart failure and sudden death. Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) Gas5 has been reported to play a function in cardiomyocyte. Here we studied the function of Gas5 on newborn mouse cardiomyocyte (NMC) apoptosis to detect its molecular mechanism. High-glucose treatment was impleme...

MicroRNAs (miRs) have been extensively studied for their involvement in multiple sclerosis (MS). We investigated the involvement of miR-134-3p on MS. The MS rat model was established, and positive expression of interleukin-17 (IL-17) was detected using the immunohistochemical method while the expression of miR-134-3p and serine protease 57 (PRSS57)...

Several protein-coding genes have been identified to play essential roles in cancer biology, and they are dysregulated in many tumors. Transmembrane protein 106C (TMEM106C) is differentially expressed in several human and porcine diseases; however, the expression and biological functions of TMEM106C in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are not clear. ...

Extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation plays a key role in the progression of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). Muscarinic receptors have been widely reported to serve as pivotal regulators in lung tissue remodeling. However, the influence of them on human bladder smooth muscle cells (HBSMCs) and the underlying molecular mechanisms have not yet be...

Drug resistance, an impenetrable barrier in the treatment of ovarian cancer (OC), is often associated with poor outcomes. Hence, it is urgent to discover new factors controlling drug resistance and survival. The association between neurocalcin delta (NCALD) and cancer drug resistance is poorly understood. Here, we reveal that NCALD messenger RNA ex...

Radioresistance may be induced by cancer stem cells (CSCs), while the biological traits of CSCs need to be retained by telomerase. The telomerase activity mainly depends on the transcriptional regulation of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT). Moreover, Wnt/β-catenin signaling is also considered essential for maintaining the CSC phenotyp...

As an aggressive breast cancer (BCa) subtype, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) responses poorly to chemotherapy and endocrine therapy, and usually has a worse prognosis. This is largely due to the lack of specific therapeutic targets, laying claim to an imperious demand to clarify the key signaling pathways potentiating TNBC progression. Herein...
