Early Puberty Due to Ovarian Granulosa Tumor
A 7½-year-old girl is reported showing precocious puberty and large abdominal mass for a year. The right ovarial cyst removed by surgery revealed histopathologically a granulosa cell tumor. After removal of the tumor the estrogens were still increased and the signs of puberty showed no regression. This seems to be due to the hormonal activity of the metastases. Liver metastasis was present a...
متن کاملMDM2-Mediated Degradation of p14ARF: A Novel Mechanism to Control ARF Levels in Cancer Cells
We here show a new relationship between the human p14ARF oncosuppressor and the MDM2 oncoprotein. MDM2 overexpression in various cancer cell lines causes p14ARF reduction inducing its degradation through the proteasome. The effect does not require the ubiquitin ligase activity of MDM2 and preferentially occurs in the cytoplasm. Interestingly, treatment with inhibitors of the PKC (Protein Kinase...
متن کاملTumor suppressor ARF
ARF (alternative reading frame) is one of the most important tumor regulator playing critical roles in controlling tumor initiation and progression. Recently, we have demonstrated a novel and unexpected role for ARF as modulator of inflammatory responses.
متن کاملFL118 induces p53-dependent senescence in colorectal cancer cells by promoting degradation of MdmX.
Anticancer agent FL118 was recently identified in screening of small-molecule inhibitors of human survivin expression. Although FL118 is a camptothecin analogue, its antitumor potency is much superior to other FDA-approved camptothecin analogues (irinotecan and topotecan). The mechanism of action (MOA) underlying the antitumor effects of FL118 remains to be fully elucidated. Here, we report tha...
متن کاملGolgi enlargement in Arf-depleted yeast cells is due to altered dynamics of cisternal maturation.
Regulation of the size and abundance of membrane compartments is a fundamental cellular activity. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, disruption of the ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) gene yields larger and fewer Golgi cisternae by partially depleting the Arf GTPase. We observed a similar phenotype with a thermosensitive mutation in Nmt1, which myristoylates and activates Arf. Therefore, partial depl...
