Methyltransferase G9a promotes cervical cancer angiogenesis and decreases patient survival
Research suggests that the epigenetic regulator G9a, a H3K9 histone methyltransferase, is involved in cancer invasion and metastasis. Here we show that G9a is linked to cancer angiogenesis and poor patient survival. Invasive cervical cancer has a higher G9a expression than cancer precursors or normal epithelium. Pharmacological inhibition and genetic silencing of G9a suppresses H3K9 methylation...
متن کاملEps8 decreases chemosensitivity and affects survival of cervical cancer patients.
The oncoprotein Eps8 facilitates proliferation in fibroblasts and colon cancer cells. However, its role in human cervical cancer is unclear. By immunohistochemical staining and Western blotting, aberrant Eps8 expression was observed in cervical carcinoma compared with normal cervical epithelial cells. Clinicopathologic analysis of 45 patients indicated that Eps8 expression was associated with p...
متن کاملFunctional Role of G9a Histone Methyltransferase in Cancer
Post-translational modifications of DNA and histones are epigenetic mechanisms, which affect the chromatin structure, ultimately leading to gene expression changes. A number of different epigenetic enzymes are actively involved in the addition or the removal of various covalent modifications, which include acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and sumoylation. Deregulation ...
متن کاملChlorthalidone decreases platelet aggregation and vascular permeability and promotes angiogenesis.
Variations in diuretic-mediated inhibition of carbonic anhydrase-dependent chloride transport in platelets and vascular smooth muscle could account for the contrasting efficacy of the thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics in reducing cardiovascular morbidity in patients with hypertension. We assessed platelet carbonic anhydrase activity and catecholamine-induced platelet aggregation in the prese...
متن کاملLncRNA Miat Promotes Proliferation of Cervical Cancer Cells and Acts as an Anti-apoptotic Factor
There are a sub-population of cells in tumor tissues known as cancer stem cells (CSCs) which have similar features with stem cells, including self-renewal and differentiation capacity. Recently, it was established that not only stem cells factors such as Oct4, but also ES-associated lncRNAs are contributing to various regulatory aspects of CSCs. Myocardial infarction associated transcript (MIAT...
