TIPE2 Sensitizes Breast Cancer Cells to Paclitaxel by Suppressing Drug-Induced Autophagy and Cancer Stem Cell Properties
The in vitro and in vivo study demonstrated that tumor necrosis factor-α-induced protein-8-like-2 (TIPE2) sensitized breast cancer cells to paclitaxel by suppressing drug-induced autophagy and CSC properties.
[EMBO Journal] Using a variety of in vitro and in vivo techniques, researchers showed that metastatic prostate cancer cells acquire a specific Na+/Ca2+ signature required for persistent invasion.
[Molecular Cell] Investigators explored the role of minor intron-containing genes and minor spliceosome in cancer, taking prostate cancer as an exemplar.
[Nature Communications] The authors uncovered dual-phosphorylated form of sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBF1), pY673/951-SREBF1 that acts as an androgen sensor, and dissociates from androgen receptor in androgen deficient environment, followed by nuclear translocation.
