LncRNA PVT1 regulates prostate cancer cell growth by inducing the methylation of miR-146a.

Prostate cancer is the third most common causes of death from cancer in men. Our previous study demonstrated that lncRNA PVT1 was overexpressed and played an oncogenic role in the progression of prostate cancer. However, the molecular mechanism of modulating the prostate cancer tumorigenesis was still unknown.

The E3 ligase UBR5 regulates gastric cancer cell growth by destabilizing the tumor suppressor GKN1.

Gastric cancer is the most common digestive malignant tumor worldwide and the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. The E3 ligase UBR5 (also known as EDD1) is essentially involved in diverse types of cancer. Here we aimed to study the functions of UBR5 in human gastric cancer.

MiR-203 inhibits tumor invasion and metastasis in gastric cancer by ATM.

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the world. A number of miRNAs are aberrantly expressed during the progression of gastric cancer. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of miR-203 in the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer and the potential mechanism of the effect of miR-203 on the tumor progression of gastric cancer.

Up-Regulation of GABAergic Signal Events in Bone Marrow Lymphocytes in Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is involved in the proliferation, differentiation, and migration of several cell types including cancer cells. Whether GABA may be involved with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is unclear. Therefore, the goal of this report was to examine if GABAergic signaling expression is altered in bone marrow lymphocytes of ALL children.
