Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) induced the inhibition of glioma cell migration. Here, we characterized the signaling mechanisms involved in the inhibitory action by S1P. In human GNS-3314 glioblastoma cells, the S1P-induced inhibition of cell migration was associated with activation of RhoA and suppression of Rac1. The inhibitory action of S1P was recovered by a small interference RNA specific to S1P(2) receptor, a carboxyl-terminal region of Galpha12 or Galpha13, an RGS domain of p115RhoGEF, and a dominant-negative mutant of RhoA. The inhibitory action of S1P through S1P(2) receptors was also observed in both U87MG glioblastoma and 1321N1 astrocytoma cells, which have no protein expression of a phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN). These results suggest that S1P(2) receptors/G(12/13)-proteins/Rho signaling pathways mediate S1P-induced inhibition of glioma cell migration. However, PTEN, recently postulated as an indispensable molecule for the inhibition of cell migration, may not be critical for the S1P(2) receptor-mediated action in glioma cells.

In vertebrates, skeletal muscle comprises fast and slow fibers. Slow and fast muscle cells in fish are spatially segregated; slow muscle cells are located only in a superficial region, and comprise a small fraction of the total muscle cell mass. Slow muscles support low-speed, low-force movements, while fast muscles are responsible for high-speed, high-force movements.

Background: Tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in tumor growth and metastasis. Exploring biomarkers that are significantly associated with TME can help guide individualized treatment of patients.

Methods: We analyzed the expression and survival of P4HB in pan-cancer through the TCGA database, and verified the protein level of P4HB by the HPA database.

Background: Renal cell cancer (RCC) is the most common and highly malignant subtype of kidney cancer. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are components of tumor microenvironment (TME) that influence RCC progression. The impact of RCC-secreted small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) on TME is largely underexplored.

Background: With extended gefitinib treatment, the therapeutic effect in some non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients declined with the development of drug resistance. Aidi injection (ADI) is utilized in various cancers as a traditional Chinese medicine prescription. This study explores the molecular mechanism by which ADI, when combined with gefitinib, attenuates gefitinib resistance in PC9GR NSCLC cells.
