Astrocyte elevated gene-1: far more than just a gene regulated in astrocytes.
Since its original cloning by subtraction hybridization in 2002, it is now evident that Astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG-1) is a key contributor to the carcinogenic process in diverse organs. AEG-1 protein expression is elevated in advanced stages of many cancers, which correlates with poor survival. In specific cancers, such as breast and liver cancer, the AEG-1 gene itself is amplified, further...
متن کاملAstrocyte elevated gene-1 induces protective autophagy.
Astrocyte-elevated gene-1 (AEG-1) expression increases in multiple cancers and plays a crucial role in oncogenic transformation and angiogenesis, which are essential components in tumor cell development, growth, and progression to metastasis. Moreover, AEG-1 directly contributes to resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs, another important hallmark of aggressive cancers. In the present study, we d...

چکیده زمینه و هدف: اکثر ژن‌های خانه‌دار، سرکوبگر تومور، و تقریبا 40% ژن‌های اختصاصی بافت‌ها حاوی توالی غنی از G+C در نواحی پروموتری خود می‌باشند که تکثیر آن با مشکلات زیادی همراه است. ژنAstrocyte elevated gene -1(AEG-1) دارای نقش عملکردی در چندین مرحله از پیشرفت تومور از جمله، ترانسفورماسیون، آپوپتوزیس، متاستاز، مقاومت به شیمی درمانی، رگزایی و پیری سلول می‌باشد. مواد و روش کار: این مطالعه، به ب...
متن کاملACTN3: More than Just a Gene for Speed
Over the last couple of decades, research has focused on attempting to understand the genetic influence on sports performance. This has led to the identification of a number of candidate genes which may help differentiate between elite and non-elite athletes. One of the most promising genes in that regard is ACTN3, which has commonly been referred to as "a gene for speed". Recent research has e...
متن کاملAstrocyte elevated gene-1 regulates hepatocellular carcinoma development and progression.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly aggressive vascular cancer characterized by diverse etiology, activation of multiple signal transduction pathways, and various gene mutations. Here, we have determined a specific role for astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG1) in HCC pathogenesis. Expression of AEG1 was extremely low in human hepatocytes, but its levels were significantly increased in human ...
