  • PIk1-depletion-induced apoptosis was partially reversed by cotransfection of nondegradable mouse PIk1 constructs. (uky.edu)
  • PIk1 depletion induced apoptosis, as indicated by the appearance of subgenomic DNA in fluorescence-activated cell-sorter (FACS) profiles, the activation of caspase 3, and the formation of fragmented nuclei. (uky.edu)
  • In this review, we summarize recent studies exploring how KSHV manipulates host cell metabolism to promote viral pathogenesis, which provides the potential therapeutic targets and strategies for KSHV-associated cancers. (frontiersin.org)
  • HPV infections have received particular attention in recent years, as high-risk strains have been linked to some cases of oral squamous cell carcinoma. (medscape.com)
  • This is supported by studies in knockout mice showing development of soft-tissue sarcomas, ovarian stromal cell tumors and a high sensitivity to carcinogenic treatments. (cancerindex.org)
  • Cell adhesion molecule-1 (CADM1) is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily that functions as a tumor suppressor of lung tumors. (cancerindex.org)
  • Both laboratory and live animal studies demonstrate that the compound can dramatically reduce the occurrence and severity of malignant tumors. (beatcancer.org)
  • B-cell lymphomas (BCLs) constitute a diverse set of tially identify new functional, diagnostic, and therapeutic tumors, both morphologically and clinically, that are mainly targets. (lu.se)
  • However, the mechanisms by which Akt signaling regulates stem cell behavior in the complexity of the whole body are poorly understood. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Thus, Akt signaling regulates neoblast biology and mediates in the distribution of injury-mediated cell death during tissue repair in planarians. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Strikingly, undead cells in the posterior (back) region of the wing imaginal disc-the tissue in the larva that gives rise to the wing in the adult fruit fly-could trigger apoptosis in cells in the anterior (front) half. (elifesciences.org)
  • Reduce Production of Adhesion Molecules - Curcumin keeps malignant tissue from sticking to vessel walls and reduces cancer cells' ability to form distant metastases. (beatcancer.org)
  • We used the recently developed vector-based small interfering RNA technique to specifically deplete PIk1 in cancer cells. (uky.edu)
  • In this study, by comparing the activity of normal cell lines and cancer cell lines after treating with resveratrol, it was found that resveratrol has more significant cytotoxicity in cancer cell lines. (mdpi.com)
  • Resveratrol could play a toxic role through inducing apoptosis of the cancer cell in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. (mdpi.com)
  • In this study, the anti-cancer effects of pentadecanoic acid were evaluated in human breast carcinoma MCF-7/stem-like cells (SC), a cell line with greater mobility, invasiveness, and cancer stem cell properties compared to the parental MCF-7 cells. (mdpi.com)
  • It also stops proliferation of cancer cells by arresting them at different phases of the cell cycle and/or by inducing their apoptosis (programmed cell death). (beatcancer.org)
  • Stimulate Apoptosis - Curcumin encourages programmed cancer cell death. (beatcancer.org)
  • Inhibit Cancer Stem Cells - Curcumin makes cancer stem cells (normally resistant to chemotherapy and radiation) more sensitive to treatment and thereby less likely to allow cancer to regrow. (beatcancer.org)
  • For producing energy sufficient to maintain cancer cell proliferation, glutaminolysis is also often elevated in most of cancer cells. (frontiersin.org)
  • Thus, the metabolic plasticity of cancer cells is essential to generate energy required for cell proliferation. (frontiersin.org)
  • Hence, in this study, we analyzed the potential link between FASN and the activity of "HER2-PI3K/Akt axis" in colorectal cancer cells. (biomedcentral.com)
  • And the influence of FASN on proliferation and migration of colorectal cancer cells was also explored. (biomedcentral.com)
  • This review examines how LSD1 modulates different cell behavior in TME and emphasizes the potential use of LSD1 inhibitors in combination with ICB therapy for future cancer research studies. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Tumor initiation, development, and relapse may be closely associated with cancer stem cells (CSCs). (nature.com)
  • Li L , Jiang H , Li Y , Xiang X , Chu Y , Tang J , Liu K , Huo D , Zhang X , . Chaetocin exhibits anticancer effects in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma via activation of Hippo pathway. (aging-us.com)
  • Besides, 12% of patients have second- or third-degree skin reactions that are sensitive to light, and about 18% of patients develop cutaneous squamous-cell carcinoma and keratoacanthoma or occurred at the same time [ 6 ]. (medsci.org)
