The tumor suppressor gene hypermethylated in cancer 1 is transcriptionally regulated by E2F1.
The Hypermethylated in Cancer 1 (HIC1) gene encodes a zinc finger transcriptional repressor that cooperates with p53 to suppress cancer development. We and others recently showed that HIC1 is a transcriptional target of p53. To identify additional transcriptional regulators of HIC1, we screened a set of transcription factors for regulation of a human HIC1 promoter reporter. We found that E2F1 s...
متن کاملGalectin-7 is epigenetically-regulated tumor suppressor in gastric cancer
Gastric cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death and remains a major clinical challenge due to poor prognosis and limited treatment options. Therefore, the basic mechanisms underlying gastric tumorigenesis deserve investigation. Although regulation of the galactoside-binding lectin galectin-7 in cancer has been studied, its role in tumor formation and progression remains controversial...
متن کاملVascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production is Regulated by Gene Polymorphisms
Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has a key role in angiogene-sis and in transplantation. The level of VEGF is related to the differences in the DNA sequence of its promoter region. Objectives: In this study, the association between the combination of VEGF –1154 G and –2578 C alleles and VEGF production by LPS-stimulated PBMCs was investigated. In addition; the relationship ...
متن کاملtumor suppressor dlec1 can stimulate the proliferation of cancer cells when ap-2ɑ2 is down-regulated in hct116
conclusions dlec1 suppresses tumor cell growth the presence of ap-2α2 and stimulates cell proliferation in the down-regulation of ap-2α2 in dlec1 over-expression stable clones of htc116. results the dlec1 over-expression was found to reduce the number of colonies in colony formation and to induce g1 arrest in seven clones, and apoptosis in one clone in the cell cycle analysis. furthermore, rega...
متن کاملMutation Analysis of TP53 Tumor Suppressor Gene in Colorectal Cancer in Patients from Iran (Kerman Province)
Objective(s) P53 is an important tumor suppressor, which is mutated in later stages of many cancers and leads to resistance to chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to reveal mutations of TP53 in colorectal cancer in Kerman province. Materials and Methods A total of Forty-three colon cancer specimens as paraffin block or fresh tissues, which passed stage IIIA, were selected. Three exons 5,...
