Unphosphorylated STAT5A stabilizes heterochromatin and suppresses tumor growth.
Tumor suppressors known to date impede cancer growth by arresting the cell cycle or promoting apoptosis. Here we show that unphosphorylated human STAT5A functions as a tumor suppressor capable of repressing multiple oncogenes via heterochromatin formation. Unphosphorylated STAT5A binds to heterochromatin protein 1α (HP1α) and stabilizes heterochromatin. Expressing unphosphorylated STAT5A or HP1...
متن کاملStructure of the unphosphorylated STAT5a dimer.
STAT proteins have the function of signaling from the cell membrane into the nucleus, where they regulate gene transcription. Latent mammalian STAT proteins can form dimers in the cytoplasm even before receptor-mediated activation by specific tyrosine phosphorylation. Here we describe the 3.21-A crystal structure of an unphosphorylated STAT5a homodimer lacking the N-terminal domain as well as t...
متن کاملNerve growth factor suppresses prostate tumor growth.
Nerve growth factor (NGF) facilitates reinnervation of perivascular nerves that regulate vascular tone and blood flow. This study investigated whether NGF prevents tumor growth by promoting neuronal regulation of tumor blood flow. The growth rate of DU145 prostate carcinoma cells subcutaneously implanted into nude mice was significantly inhibited by subcutaneous NGF administration. Significant ...
متن کاملDDA3 stabilizes microtubules and suppresses neurite formation.
We have previously shown that DDA3 - also known as proline/serine-rich coiled-coil protein 1 (PSRC1) - is a microtubule-associated protein that promotes cell growth by stimulating the β-catenin pathway. Here, we report that DDA3 can bundle and stabilize microtubules in vivo and in vitro. We found that overexpression of DDA3 increased the abundance of acetylated and tyrosinated microtubules. We ...
متن کاملSwim training suppresses tumor growth in mice.
The present study was designed to determine the effects of physical training on the development of cancer induced by the injection of Ehrlich tumor cells in mice. Male Swiss mice were subjected to a swim training protocol (5 days/wk for 6 wk, 1 h at 50% of maximal capacity-trained groups) or remained sedentary in their cages (sedentary groups). The inoculation of Ehrlich tumor cells was perform...
