Novel Tumor Suppressor Gene in Prostate Cancer
The transforming growth factor-B (TGF-B) signaling pathway has an important role in regulating normal prostate epithelium, inhibiting proliferation, differentiation, and both androgen deprivation–induced and androgen-independent apoptosis. During prostate cancer formation, most prostate cancer cells become resistant to these homeostatic effects of TGF-B. Although the loss of expression of eithe...
متن کاملA candidate tumor suppressor gene, H37, from the human lung cancer tumor suppressor locus 3p21.3.
Frequent allelic loss and homozygous deletions within chromosome 3p in human lung cancers have suggested that the 3p21.3 (370-kb) region contains a critical tumor suppressor gene(s) (TSG). With the exact identity/characteristics of such a gene(s) still unconfirmed, a lack of inactivating structural mutations in the expressed genes contained within this region may indicate that the 3p TSG(s) do ...
متن کاملFrequent abnormalities of FHIT, a candidate tumor suppressor gene, in head and neck cancer cell lines.
Loss of heterozygosity at the short arm of chromosome 3 occurs frequently in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). FHIT, a candidate tumor suppressor gene, was recently identified at 3p14.2, and abnormalities of the gene were found in several types of human cancers. To investigate a potential role of the FHIT gene in HNSCC, we examined 16 HNSCC cell lines from 11 patients for abnormali...
متن کاملIdentification of a Novel Tumor-Binding Peptide for Lung Cancer Through in-vitro Panning
Tumor-targeted therapies are playing growing roles in cancer research. The exploitation of these powerful therapeutic modalities largely depends on the discovery of tumor-targeting ligands. Phage display has proven a promising high throughput screening tool for the identification of novel specific peptides with high binding affinity to cancer cells. In the present study, we describe the use of ...
متن کاملTime dependent of epigenetic effect of disulfiram on tumor suppressor gene of RASSF1A in Hela cancer cell line
Introduction: Cervical cancer is the third most common tumor among women. Surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy are common treatments, however high stage tumors have frequently poor prognosis. Nowadays, the epigenetic reversion introduced as an efficient strategy of treatment of cervical cancer. In the process, inhibitors of DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) induce re-expression of tumor suppresso...
