Cancer cells show significant dysregulation of genes expression, which may favor their survival in the tumor environment. In this study, the cellular vault's components MVP (major vault protein), TEP1 (telomerase-associated protein 1) and vPARP (vault poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase) were transiently or completely inhibited in U2OS cells (human bone osteosarcoma epithelial cells) to evaluate their impact on the cell proliferative and migratory capacity as well as on the development of their resistance to the drug vinorelbine. Comparative analysis of MVP protein expression level in normal colon tissue, primary colorectal tumor, and metastasis showed that the expression of this protein does not increase significantly in the primary tumor, but its expression increases in metastatic cells. Further comparative molecular analysis using the whole transcriptome microarrays for MVP-positive and MVP-negative cells showed that MVP is involved in regulating proliferation and migration of cancer cells. MVP may facilitate metastasis of colon cancer due to its impact on cell migration. Moreover, two vault proteins, MVP and TEP1, contribute the resistance to vinorelbine, while vPARP does not.

The redox imbalance, caused by depletion or generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), is a key mechanism by which metal complexes exert anticancer effects. Carbidopa has shown the ability to inhibit the MDA-MB-231 cell line, a highly aggressive triple-negative human breast adenocarcinoma, by inducing reductive stress. The metal complex of carbidopa with zinc (ZnCarbi) was designed to modify carbidopa's structure and exhibited increased cytotoxicity against MDA-MB-231 cells.

Ubiquitin‑specific protease 35 (USP35) was found to be involved in various tumor progression, but its role in breast cancer remains largely unknown. USP35 mRNA and protein expression in breast cancer tissues and cells were evaluated by qPCR and Western bolt (WB), respectively. Subsequently, flow cytometry and EDU labeling were used to evaluate breast cancer cell apoptosis and proliferation.

Objective: Searching for potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for early diagnosis of gynecological tumors to improve patient survival.

Methods: Microarray datasets of cervical cancer (CC) and ovarian cancer (OC) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, then, differential gene expression between cancerous and normal tissues in the datasets was analyzed. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was performed to screen for co-expression modules associated with CC and OC.
