Altered expression of cell cycle regulators in adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma patients
Abstract Background: Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is caused by human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1). HTLV-1 oncogenes can induce malignancy through controlled gene expression of cell cycle checkpoints in the host cell. HTLV-I genes play a pivotal role in overriding cell cycle checkpoints and deregulate cellular division. In this study, we aimed to determine and comp...
متن کاملAltered expression of Lnc-OC1 and SIRT1 genes in colorectal cancer tissue
Backgrounds: SIRT1 plays an important role in many physiological processes, including metabolism, neuronal protection, senecence and inflammatory, by staging histones and multiple transcription factors. However, the complex mechanisms of SIRT1 signaling in tumors are not yet fully understood, as it acts as both an oncogen and a tumor suppressor. On the other hand, it has been shown that the Lnc...
متن کاملThe myoepithelial cell: embryology, function, and proliferative aspects.
Myoepithelial cells form an integral part of the secretory and ductular portion of most glands. They share a common origin with lumenal epithelial cells and influence proliferation and differentiation of developing terminal glandular buds by producing a scaffold of basement membrane proteins. Their contractile capacity, controlled by hormonal and neural mechanisms, plays an important role in pr...
متن کاملMyoepithelial cell-specific expression of stefin A as a suppressor of early breast cancer invasion.
Mammography screening has increased the detection of early pre-invasive breast cancers, termed ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), increasing the urgency of identifying molecular regulators of invasion as prognostic markers to predict local relapse. Using the MMTV-PyMT breast cancer model and pharmacological protease inhibitors, we reveal that cysteine cathepsins have important roles in early-stag...
متن کاملThe mammary myoepithelial cell.
Over the last few years, the discovery of basal-type mammary carcinomas and the association of the regenerative potential of the mammary epithelium with the basal myoepithelial cell population have attracted considerable attention to this second major mammary lineage. However, many questions concerning the role of basal myoepithelial cells in mammary morphogenesis, functional differentiation an...
