Properties and fluctuations in vivo of rat liver antizyme inhibitor.
Antizyme inhibitor was highly purified from rat liver by using affinity chromatography. It has some structural resemblance to ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), as judged from Mr, immunoreactivity and reversible binding with antizyme. However, unlike hepatic amounts of ODC and ODC-antizyme complex, that of antizyme inhibitor did not show much fluctuation upon putrescine treatment, whereas it decrea...
متن کاملLRP5 knockdown: effect on prostate cancer invasion growth and skeletal metastasis in vitro and in vivo
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a common hormone-dependent malignancy associated with the development of skeletal metastases. This is due to the increased expression of a number of growth factors, cytokines, and proteases which collectively drive the metastatic cascade in general and increased propensity to develop skeletal metastasis in particular. While a number of signaling pathways have been impli...
متن کاملAntizyme inhibitor is rapidly induced in growth-stimulated mouse fibroblasts and releases ornithine decarboxylase from antizyme suppression.
Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) catalyses the first step in the synthesis of the polyamines putrescine, spermidine and spermine. The polyamines are essential for cell growth, but at elevated levels they may be tumorigenic, toxic, or may induce apoptosis. Therefore, ODC activity is highly regulated. It is induced when cells are stimulated to grow, and it is subjected to feedback inhibition by the ...
متن کاملProstate secretory protein PSP-94 decreases tumor growth and hypercalcemia of malignancy in a syngenic in vivo model of prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer is a common malignancy affecting men, which is often associated with skeletal metastases resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. In this hormone-dependent cancer, low levels of a prostate secretory protein of 94 amino acids (PSP-94) are associated with advanced disease stage. In the current study, we have examined the effect of PSP-94 on prostate cancer growth and expe...
متن کاملHIF-1α knockdown by miRNA decreases survivin expression and inhibits A549 cell growth in vitro and in vivo
The present study examined the downregulation of survivin expression by hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) miRNA and its effect in the inhibition of A549 cell growth in vitro and in vivo. Survivin expression, apoptosis, proliferation and migration under normoxic and hypoxic conditions were assessed by standard methods. Cotransfection and chromatin immunoprecipitation were used to observe the ...
