DPP3 expression promotes cell proliferation and migration and tumour growth , which is associated with poor prognosis of oesophageal carcinoma.

Dipeptidyl peptidase III (DPP3), a zinc‑dependent metallopeptidase, is upregulated in a variety of malignancies. However, little is known about its roles in the pathogenesis of these malignancies. The present study was designed to investigate the roles of DPP3 in the pathogenesis and progression of oesophageal cancer (EC).

SIRT3 promotes the invasion and metastasis of cervical cancer cells by regulating fatty acid synthase.

Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) modulates mitochondria-localized processes and is implicated in the metabolic reprogramming of cancer cells, especially fatty acid (FA) synthesis. However, the relationship between SIRT3 and aberrant lipid synthesis in cervical cancer remains unclear. Here, we investigated the clinical relevance of SIRT3 expression in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), and normal tissues.
