The ubiquitin-specific peptidase 22 is a deubiquitinase of CD73 in breast cancer cells.

Cancer cells evade the immune system by expressing inhibitory immune checkpoint receptors such as ecto-5'-nucleotidase (NT5E), also known as CD73, which consequently suppress tumor neoantigen-specific immune response. Blockade of CD73 in mouse models of breast cancer showed a reduction in tumor growth and metastasis. CD73 expression is elevated in a variety of human tumors including breast cancer.

Dose-dependent differential effects of risedronate on gene expression in osteoblasts.

Bisphosphonates have multiple effects on bone. Their actions on osteoclasts lead to inhibition of bone resorption, at least partially through apoptosis. Effects on osteoblasts vary, with modifications in the molecule and concentration both resulting in qualitatively different responses.
