Molecular Carcinogenesis
Abstract The expression pattern of MUC1-C in tumors is closely linked to tumor progression; however, its specific mechanism remains unclear. The expression of MUC1-C in cancer and adjacent normal tissues was detected using immunohistochemistry and Western blot. The IC50 of cells to gemcitabine was determined using the CCK8 assay. The effects of hypoxia...

Abstract Breast cancer is the most frequent neoplasia in developed countries and the leading cause of death in women worldwide. Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a cellular process through which epithelial cells decrease or lose their epithelial characteristics and gain mesenchymal properties. EMT mediates tumor progression, because tumor...
Abstract Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are predominately induced by KIT mutants. In this study, we found that four and a half LIM domains 2 (FHL2) was highly expressed in GISTs and KIT signaling dramatically increased FHL2 transcription while FHL2 inhibited KIT transcription. In addition, our results showed that FHL2 associated with KIT and...
Abstract Baicalein has been implicated in the chemotherapy overcoming triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, many unanswered questions remain regarding its role in treating TNBC. Here, we sought to demonstrate the molecular pathway mediated by baicalein in TNBC. Lysine-specific demethylase 4E (KDM4E), reduced in TNBC cells, was identified as...
Abstract DNA methylation, an epigenetic regulatory mechanism dictating gene transcription, plays a critical role in the occurrence and development of cancer. However, the molecular underpinnings of LINC00987 methylation in the regulation of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remain elusive. This study investigated LINC00987 expression in LUAD patients through...
