Ubiquitin ligase CHIP functions as an oncogene and activates the AKT signaling pathway in prostate cancer.

Carboxyl terminus of Hsc-70-interacting protein (CHIP) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that induces the ubiquitination and degradation of numerous tumor-associated proteins and serves as a suppressor or promoter in tumor progression. To date, the molecular mechanism of CHIP in prostate cancer remains unknown. Therefore, the present study investigated the biological function of CHIP in prostate cancer cells and obtained evidence that CHIP expression is upregulated in prostate cancer tissues.

miR-767-3p Inhibits Growth and Migration of Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells by Regulating CLDN18.

Claudin18 (CLDN18) is necessary for intercellular junctions and is reported to be involved in cell migration and metastasis, making it like an oncogene in various cancer types. However, the biological function and regulatory mechanisms of CLDN18 in lung adenocarcinoma are not yet clear. In this study, we found downregulation of miR-767-3p and upregulation of in lung adenocarcinoma tissue and cell lines.
