Metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) is an essential downstream effector of the c-MYC oncoprotein.
The c-myc oncogene is among the most commonly overexpressed genes in human cancer. c-myc encodes a basic helix-loop-helix/leucine zipper (bHLH/LZ) transcription factor (c-MYC) that activates a cascade of downstream targets that ultimately mediate cellular transformation. Although a large number of genes are regulated by c-MYC, only a few have been functionally linked to c-MYC-mediated transform...
متن کاملIdentification of Metastasis Associated Antigen 1 (MTA1) by Serological Screening of Prostate Cancer cDNA Libraries
Over the past 10 years the serological analysis of recombinant cDNA expression libraries (SEREX) has proved to be an effective method for the identification of tumour antigens. In the present study, two prostate cancer libraries were constructed and screened using autologous sera. Fifty five genes were isolated, including 46 known genes and 9 previously uncharacterised genes. Among the known ge...
متن کاملLoss of heterozygosity events impeding breast cancer metastasis contain the MTA1 gene.
Breast cancer mortality is seldom attributable to the primary tumor, but rather to the presence of systemic (metastatic) disease. Axillary lymph node dissection can identify the presence of metastatic breast cancer cells and serves as a marker for systemic disease. Previous work in our laboratory determined that rates of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of a 1.6-Mb region of chromosome 14q 31.2 is ...
متن کاملNuclear MTA1 overexpression is associated with aggressive prostate cancer, recurrence and metastasis in African Americans
Metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1), a negative epigenetic modifier, plays a critical role in prostate cancer (PCa) progression. We hypothesized that MTA1 overexpression in primary tumor tissues can predict PCa aggressiveness and metastasis. Immunohistochemical staining of MTA1 was done on archival PCa specimens from University of Mississippi Medical Center and University of Iowa. We found t...
متن کاملAkt Mediates Metastasis-Associated Gene 1 (MTA1) Regulating the Expression of E-cadherin and Promoting the Invasiveness of Prostate Cancer Cells
Human metastasis-associated gene 1 (MTA1) is highly associated with the metastasis of prostate cancer; however, the molecular functions of MTA1 that facilitate metastasis remain unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that the silencing of MTA1 by siRNA treatment results in the upregulation of E-cadherin expression by the phosphorylation of AKT (p-AKT) and decreases the invasiveness of prostate ...
