The protective effect of propofol on hydrogen peroxide-induced human esophageal carcinoma via blocking the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway
Objective(s): To analyze the potential influences of propofol on the oxidative stress of H2O2-induced human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) Eca109 cell through mediating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.Materials and Methods: Eca109 cells were classified into 5 groups: Control group, H2O2 group, Propofol + H2O2 group, Dkk1 (Dickkopf-1, Wnt/β-catenin pathway antagonist) + H2O2 group...
متن کاملThe Canonical Wnt Signaling (Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway): A Potential Target for Cancer Prevention and Therapy
Precise regulation of signal transduction pathways is crucial for normal animal development and for maintaining cellular and tissue homeostasis in adults. The Wnt/Frizzled-mediated signaling includes canonical and non-canonical signal transduction pathways. Upregulation or downregulation of the canonical Wnt-signaling (or the Wnt/β-Catenin signal transduction) leads to a variety of human diseas...
متن کاملKaempferol targets estrogen-related receptor α and inhibits cell proliferation and invasion in retinoblastoma via Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway
Retinoblastoma is a pediatric retinal tumor caused by mutational inactivation of the tumor suppressor pRb, and the present study aims to examine the role of kaempferol in retinoblastoma and explore its underlying molecular mechanisms. The mRNA and protein expression levels were measured by quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blot, respectively; cell growth and invasion was determin...
متن کاملBMP2 promotes chondrocyte proliferation via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), a member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily, plays a key role in the induction of the differentiation of mesenchymal cells into chondrocytes to form cartilage tissue. However, it is not clear whether BMP2 regulates the proliferation of chondrocytes. In the present study, the effect of BMP2 on the proliferation of chondrocytes and its und...
متن کاملCircular RNA-ITCH Suppresses Lung Cancer Proliferation via Inhibiting the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway
As a special form of noncoding RNAs, circular RNAs (circRNAs) played important roles in regulating cancer progression mainly by functioning as miRNA sponge. While the function of circular RNA-ITCH (cir-ITCH) in lung cancer is still less reported, in this study, we firstly detected the expression of cir-ITCH in tumor tissues and paired adjacent noncancer tissues of 78 patients with lung cancer u...
