NDRG2 Regulates the Expression of Genes Involved in Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition of Prostate Cancer Cells
Background: Metastasis is the main cause of prostate cancer (PCa) death. The inhibitory effect of N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) on the invasiveness properties of PCa cells has been demonstrated previously. However, its underlying mechanisms have not yet been investigated. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of NDRG2 overexpression on the expression of genes involved i...
متن کاملgene sets involved in prostate cancer based on differential expression
prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men. in spite of on-going researches in this filed, the specific causes of prostate cancer are so far unknown. in this study, we used two methods of gene set analysis to improve the biological interpretation of the observed expression patterns in prostate cancer. the gene set analysis is a computational method to discover gene sets whose expre...
متن کاملIN SILICO INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT OF LYCOPENE ON THE EXPRESSION OF BRCA1 AND BRCA2 INHIBITOR GENES IN PROSTATE CANCER
Background & Aims: Cancer is a genetic disease that results from mutations in genes that control cell activities. Prostate cancer is one of the most common types of cancers in men. Surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, and chemotherapy are used to treat this disease. These treatments have numerous side effects after treatment, including impotence along with the high cost of treatment. In...
متن کاملEvaluation of GNMT Gene Expression in Prostate Cancer Tissues using Real-Time PCR
Introduction: Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In the present study, the expression level of glycine N-methyl transferase gene (GNMT) was investigated in prostate cancer tissue. The GNMT enzyme is encoded by the GNMT gene. Increased GNMT gene expression increases the conversion of glycine to sarcosine and results in the e...
متن کاملAnalysis of expression of chorionic gonadotrophin transcripts in prostate cancer by quantitative Taqman and a modified molecular beacon RT-PCR.
Expression of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) is associated with trophoblastic, testicular and other malignancies such as bladder, pancreatic, cervical, breast and prostate cancer. In the prostate, however, hCG expression, associated with neuroendocrine cells, is also found in normal tissue. Of the six highly homologous genes that all encode the beta-subunit of hCG, the beta 7 gene is repor...
