Abstract Non-muscle myosin IIA heavy chain (MYH9) has been implicated in many physiological and pathological functions including cell adhesion, polarity, motility to cancer. However, its role in melanoma remains unexplored. The aim of our study was to evaluate the role of MYH9 in melanoma tumor development and metastasis and further to find out the potential underlying mechanisms. In this study, we evaluated the in vitro migratory and invasive properties and in vivo tumor development...
Abstract The purpose of this study was to prospectively evaluate the distribution of PSMA-targeted, PET-avid lesions in prostate cancer (PCa) patients with biochemical recurrence in a Chinese cohort. The relationships between PSA levels, disease-free time after prostatectomy, and 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/computed tomography (CT) findings were investigated. Inclusion criteria included histopathologically proven prostate adenocarcinoma, two consecutive PSA levels > 0.20 ng/mL, and...
Abstract Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common gynecologic malignancies, and the incidence rate of night shift among women workers is higher than that in the general population. Circadian rhythm disorder, mainly rhythm gene, is related to various tumor onset, including EC. This study described the sleep/night-shift features of EC patients, explored the mechanism of the circadian clock gene PER and investigated prognostic and functional values of Per1 caused by night...
Abstract Cinnamaldehyde (CA) is an essential component of cinnamon that has been shown to exhibit anti-tumor effects through growth inhibition and induction of apoptosis in cancer cells. We have previously shown that CA could interfere with myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), leading to cancer growth inhibition. In addition, recent studies have demonstrated that cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer development in different ways. However, the effect of CA...
Abstract Bladder cancer is one of the most aggressive urothelial tumors. Previous studies have suggested that epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) contributes to bladder cancer progression. However, the regulatory network of EMT in bladder cancer remains elusive. In this study, we found Yin Yang 1 (YY1) is a critical regulator of EMT in bladder cancer. First, we showed that YY1 was upregulated in bladder cancer tissues than that in adjacent normal tissues. Then, we proved...
