    Antisense Transcription from Lentiviral Gene Targeting Linked to an Integrated Stress Response in Colorectal Cancer Cells

    Scientists explored a gene targeting approach to deplete ephrinB2 from colorectal cancer cells using an inducible lentiviral vector.

    HDAC5, Negatively Regulated by miR-148a-3p, Promotes Colon Cancer Cell Migration

    To clarify the role of Class IIa Histone deacetylases (HDACs) in the metastasis of colon adenocarcinoma, investigators used the Class IIa HDAC inhibitor TMP269 and found that it effectively inhibited the migration ability of colon adenocarcinoma cells.
    [Cancer Science]

    Abstract

    IFN-α/β-Mediated NK2R Expression Is Related to the Malignancy of Colon Cancer Cells

    Researchers found that high neurokinin 2 receptor (NK2R) gene expression was correlated with the poor survival of colorectal cancer patients, and interferon (IFN)-α/β stimulation significantly enhanced NK2R gene expression level of colon cancer cells in a JAK1/2-dependent manner.

    Abstract

    SFMBT1 Facilitates Colon Cancer Cell Metastasis and Drug Resistance Combined with HMG20A

    The role of Scm-like with four malignant brain tumor domains 1 (SFMBT1) in the migration, proliferation and invasion of colorectal cancer or resistance to 5-fluorouracil was determined using scratch assay, colony formation and Transwell assay.

    The OmpA of Commensal Escherichia coli of CRC Patients Affects Apoptosis of the HCT116 Colon Cancer Cell Line

    Scientists analyzed the effect of the outer membrane protein A (OmpA) protein on the expression of the four genes related to apoptosis in the HCT116 colon cancer cell line.

    A Novel Nanobody as Therapeutics Target for EGFR-Positive Colorectal Cancer Therapy: Exploring the Effects of the Nanobody on SW480 Cells Using Proteomics Approach

    Researchers determined the effect of cell-penetrable nanobody on cell viability and proteomic profile in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-positive human colorectal cancer cell lines.

    ARL2 Is Required for Homologous Recombination Repair and Colon Cancer Stem Cell Survival

    ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 2 (ARL2) was expressed at relatively low levels in K-RAS active colon cancer cells, but its expression was induced in cancer stem cells.
    [Febs Open Bio]

    Abstract

    Apelin-Driven Endothelial Cell Migration Sustains Intestinal Progenitor Cells and Tumor Growth

    Scientists report that in colorectal cancer, expansion of the stem/progenitor pool in intestinal crypts required vascular endothelial growth factor A-independent growth and remodeling of blood vessels.

    Proteomics of Post-translational Modifications in Colorectal Cancer: Discovery of New Biomarkers

    The authors discuss the general strategies for proteomic profiling of several key post-translational modifications (PTMs) and summarize the recent applications of these methods to explore the potential roles of the PTMs in colorectal cancer.
