Farnesoid X receptor inhibits LNcaP cell proliferation via the upregulation of PTEN
Prostate cancer is a form of cancer that develops in the prostate, a gland in the male reproductive system. In the present study, the activation of the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, was demonstrated to inhibit cell proliferation in LNcaP cells. Using clinical samples, mRNA and protein levels of FXR were found to be significantly decreased by quantitat...
متن کاملHedgehog Pathway Blockade Inhibits Melanoma Cell Growth
Previous reports have demonstrated a role for hedgehog signaling in melanoma progression, prompting us to explore the therapeutic benefit of targeting this pathway in melanoma. We profiled a panel of human melanoma cell lines and control melanocytes for altered expression of hedgehog pathway members and determined the consequences of both OPEN ACCESS Pharmaceuticals 2013, 6 1430 genetic and pha...
متن کاملWLS inhibits melanoma cell proliferation through the β-catenin signalling pathway and induces spontaneous metastasis
Elevated levels of nuclear β-catenin are associated with higher rates of survival in patients with melanoma, raising questions as to how ß-catenin is regulated in this context. In the present study, we investigated the formal possibility that the secretion of WNT ligands that stabilize ß-catenin may be regulated in melanoma and thus contributes to differences in ß-catenin levels. We find that W...
متن کاملReduction of miR-21 induces SK-N-SH cell apoptosis and inhibits proliferation via PTEN/PDCD4
MicroRNA (miR/miRNA)-21 is a well-known oncogenic miRNA that is overexpressed in various types of tumors. The tumor-suppressor genes programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) and phosphatase tensin homologue (PTEN), are targets of miR-21, and are underexpressed in several types of cancer. However, the expression of miR-21 and its target genes in neuroblastoma (NB) remains unclear. In the present study, a...
متن کاملPTEN Inhibits Cell Proliferation, Promotes Cell Apoptosis, and Induces Cell Cycle Arrest via Downregulating the PI3K/AKT/hTERT Pathway in Lung Adenocarcinoma A549 Cells
PTEN plays an essential role in tumorigenesis and both its mutation and inactivation can influence proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle progression in tumor cells. However, the precise role of PTEN in lung cancer cells has not been well studied. To address this, we have generated lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells overexpressing wild-type or mutant PTEN as well as A549 cells expressing a siRNA ...
