TASK-1 Regulates Apoptosis and Proliferation in a Subset of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide; survival times are poor despite therapy. The role of the two-pore domain K+ (K2P) channel TASK-1 (KCNK3) in lung cancer is at present unknown. We found that TASK-1 is expressed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines at variable levels. In a highly TASK-1 expressing NSCLC cell line, A549, a characteristic pH- and hypoxia-sens...
متن کاملPyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase 1 promotes proliferation and inhibits apoptosis in non-small cell lung cancer
Disordered tumor cell metabolism is involved in the process of tumorigenesis. Proline metabolism is of critical importance for tumor cells, and pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase 1 (PYCR1), a key proline biosynthesis enzyme, has been reported to be overexpressed in prostate cancer and to promote tumor cell growth in breast cancer. The present study investigated the relationship between PYCR1 and...
متن کاملA novel long noncoding RNA IRAIN regulates cell proliferation in non small cell lung cancer.
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a novel class of RNA molecules defined as transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides that lack protein coding potential. LncRNA IRAIN has been verified that it is related to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and breast cancer. However, there was no study to clarify whether it is involved in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, we demonstrated IRAIN as a tumor pro...
متن کاملMicroRNA-21 regulates non-small cell lung cancer cell proliferation by affecting cell apoptosis via COX-19.
AIMS This study is to investigate the regulatory effect of microRNA-21 (miR-21) on bone metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS In this study, 18 patients were diagnosed with vertebral column metastasis of NSCLC. MiR-21 or small interfering RNAs were transfected into H2170 cells using Lipofectamine 2000. Real-time PCR was performed to detect miR-21 expression. Western blotti...
متن کاملEZH2-mediated Puma gene repression regulates non-small cell lung cancer cell proliferation and cisplatin-induced apoptosis
Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are highly conserved epigenetic effectors that maintain the silenced state of genes. EZH2 is the catalytic core and one of the most important components of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2). In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells and primary lung tumors, we found that PRC2 components, including EZH2, are overexpressed. High levels of EZH2 protein were a...
