Metformin inhibits TGF-β1-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition-like process and stem-like properties in GBM via AKT/mTOR/ZEB1 pathway
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent and aggressive brain tumor in adults. In spite of advances in diagnosis and therapy, the prognosis is still relatively poor. The invasive property of GBM is the major cause of death in patients. Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition-like process (EMT-like process) is considered to play an important role in the invasive property. Metformin has been reported...
متن کاملMetformin Inhibits TGF-β1-Induced Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition via PKM2 Relative-mTOR/p70s6k Signaling Pathway in Cervical Carcinoma Cells
BACKGROUND Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a prominent role in tumorigenesis. Metformin exerts antitumorigenic effects in various cancers. This study investigated the mechanisms of metformin in TGF-β1-induced Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cervical carcinoma cells. METHODS cells were cultured with 10 ng/mL TGF-β1 to induce EMT and treated with or without metfor...
متن کاملAdenovirus-mediated P311 inhibits TGF-β1-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition in NRK-52E cells via TGF-β1-Smad-ILK pathway.
P311, a highly conserved 8-kDa intracellular protein, has been indicated as an important factor in myofibroblast transformation and in the progression of fibrosis. In the present study, we constructed a recombinant adenovirus vector of p311 (called Ad-P311) and transferred it into rat renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (NRK-52E) to explore the effect of P311 on epithelial-mesenchymal trans...
متن کاملApolipoprotein A1 Inhibits TGF-β1–Induced Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition of Alveolar Epithelial Cells
BACKGROUND Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and lethal lung disease characterized by the accumulation of excessive fibroblasts and myofibroblasts in the extracellular matrix. The transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1)-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is thought to be a possible source of fibroblasts/myofibroblasts in IPF lungs. We have previously reported t...
متن کاملUBE2T silencing inhibits TGF-β1-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in colon cancer cells
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is considered as the first and key step for the migration and invasion of cancers including colon cancer. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2T (UBE2T), a member of the E2 family, plays an important role in tumorigenesis and progression. However, its role in colon cancer has not been investigated. In this study, we investigated the effect of UBE2T on transform...
