Protective role of Decylubiquinone against secondary melanoma at lung in B16F10 induced mice by reducing E-cadherin expression and ameliorating ROCKII-Limk1/2-Cofiliin mediated metastasis.

Melanoma is one of the most consequential skin cancer with a rising death incidences. Silent but belligerent nature of metastatic sprouting is the leading cause of melanoma related mortality. Invasion of metastatic cells and re-expression of E-Cadherin play the crucial role in the establishment of secondary tumor at distal sites.

Activity of ROCKII not ROCKI promotes pulmonary metastasis of melanoma cells via modulating Smad2/3-MMP9 and FAK-Src-VEGF signalling.

Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase (ROCK) inhibition decreases tumourogenic growth, proliferation and angiogenesis. Multifaceted evidences are there about the role of ROCK in cancer progression, but isoform specific analysis in secondary pulmonary melanoma is still unaddressed. This study explored the operating function of ROCK in the metastasis of B16F10 mice melanoma cell line.

Association of p38MAPK-p53-Fas aggregation in S-allyl cysteine mediated regulation of hepatocarcinoma.

Bioactive components of dietary phytochemicals have been reported to possess antitumor activities. Evidences suggested key role of stress responsive p38MAPK in the induction of nutraceuticals mediated apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Current study demonstrated detailed molecular bagatelle associated with p38 MAPK mediated effective suppression of cell growth both in HepG2 and chemically induced liver carcinoma after S-allyl cysteine (SAC) treatment.
