LINC01207 Predicts Poor Prognosis and Suppresses Cell Growth and Metastasis via Regulating GSK-3β/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway in Malignant Glioma.

BACKGROUND Recent literature has revealed that LINC01207 plays a vital part in tumorigenesis and malignancy progression. However, the potential mechanisms of LINC01207 in malignant glioma are still unknown. MATERIAL AND METHODS Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was applied to analyze LINC01207 mRNA levels in malignant glioma cell lines and tissue samples.

Photodynamic therapy combined with temozolomide inhibits C6 glioma migration and invasion and promotes mitochondrial-associated apoptosis by inhibiting sodium-hydrogen exchanger isoform 1.

Objective: As a targeted therapeutic technique for glioma inhibition, photodynamic therapy (PDT) has gradually become a focus of basic research related to glioma treatment. The capacity of PDT to kill glioma cells involves varieties of pathways. In glioma cells, activated sodium-hydrogen exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) can inhibit the cytotoxic effect of temozolomide (TMZ), promote cell migration and invasion, and inhibit cell apoptosis by changing the acid-base equilibrium.

Spalt-Like Transcription Factor 1 (SALL1) Gene Expression Inhibits Cell Proliferation and Cell Migration of Human Glioma Cells Through the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway.

BACKGROUND The spalt-like transcription factor 1 (SALL1) gene is a member of the Krüppel-associated box-containing zinc finger proteins (KRAB-ZFPs) and has been shown to modulate the onset and progression of human tumors. This study aimed to investigate the regulatory effects and mechanisms of SALL1 gene expression in human glioblastoma and glioma cells and tissue samples from patients with cerebral glioma. MATERIAL AND METHODS The human glioblastoma cell lines, LN229, U87-MG, U-251, U343, and the Hs683 glioma cell line were studied.
