    Transferrin Receptor 1 Promotes the Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor-Mediated Oncogenic Potential of Diffused-Type Gastric Cancer

    To gain novel insights into the downstream signaling pathways of receptor tyrosine kinases specific to diffuse-type gastric cancer (DGC), phosphotyrosine-containing proteins associated with activated fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 were purified through two sequential rounds of immunoprecipitation.

    Abstract

    IL-36 Signalling Enhances a Pro-tumorigenic Phenotype in Colon Cancer Cells with Cancer Cell Growth Restricted by Administration of the IL-36R Antagonist

    Given the link between IBD and colitis-associated cancer, as well as the involvement of other IL-1 family members in intestinal tumorigenesis, scientists investigated whether IL-36 cytokines played a role in the pathogenesis of colon cancer.

    Pseudophosphatase STYX Is Induced by Helicobacter pylori and Promotes Gastric Cancer Progression by Inhibiting FBXO31 Function

    Serine/threonine/tyrosine interacting protein (STYX) overexpression facilitated the proliferation and migration in gastric cancer cells, whereas STYX knockdown had the opposite effects.

    RBMS1 Promotes Gastric Cancer Metastasis through Autocrine IL-6/JAK2/STAT3 Signaling

    Investigators explored a prognostic model for the estimation of tumor-associated mortality in gastric cancer (GC) patients and revealed the RNA-binding protein RBMS1 as a candidate promoter gene for GC metastasis by analyzing GOBO and oncomine high-throughput sequencing datasets for 408 GC patients.

    Aryl-Hydrocarbon Receptor-Interacting Protein Regulates Tumorigenic and Metastatic Properties of Colorectal Cancer Cells Driving Liver Metastasis

    The authors revealed new roles for aryl-hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein in regulating proteins associated with cancer and metastasis to induce tumorigenic and metastatic properties in colon cancer cells driving liver metastasis.

    Abstract

    A Chemical Probe Inhibitor Targeting STAT1 Restricts Cancer Stem Cell Traits and Angiogenesis in Colorectal Cancer

    4’,5,7-trihydroxyisoflavone probe was a new chemical probe inhibitor of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) that reduced stemness and angiogenesis in colorectal cancer.

    Temporal Dynamics from Phosphoproteomics Using Endoscopic Biopsy Specimens Provides New Therapeutic Targets in Stage IV Gastric Cancer

    Scientists conducted a phosphoproteomic analysis using paired endoscopic biopsy specimens of pre- and post-treatment tumors (Ts) and non-tumor adjacent tissues (NATs) obtained from 4 HER2-positive gastric cancer patients who received trastuzumab-based treatment and from pre-treatment Ts and NATs of 4 HER2-negative gastric cancer patients.

    MRI Assessment of Glutamine Uptake Correlates with the Distribution of Glutamine Transporters and Cancer Stem Cell Markers

    Using MRI, researchers determined the correlation between glutamine uptake and the distribution of glutamine transporters, namely ASCT2 and SLC38A2, glutaminase, and cancer stem cell markers, such as CD44 and CD166, in a mouse xenograft model of HT29 human colorectal cancer cells.
