MASTL Regulates EGFR Signaling to Impact Pancreatic Cancer Progression

Based on a comprehensive investigation involving pancreatic cancer (PC) patient samples, murine models of PC progression, and loss and gain of function studies, researchers reported a previously undescribed critical role of microtubule-associated serine/threonine-protein kinase-like (MASTL) in promoting cancer malignancy and therapy resistance.

UBA6 and NDFIP1 Regulate the Degradation of Ferroportin

A HepG2 cell line, which inducibly expresses ferroportin-GFP, was established to test the ability of siRNAs directed against components of the ubiquitin system to prevent BMP6- and exogenous hepcidin-induced ferroportin degradation.

NEK2 Inhibition Triggers Anti-pancreatic Cancer Immunity by Targeting PD-L1

Researchers identified never in mitosis gene A-related kinase 2 (NEK2) as a prognostic factor in immunologically “hot” pancreatic cancer, involved in the onset and development of pancreatic tumors in an immune-dependent manner.

TRIM15 Promotes the Invasion and Metastasis of Pancreatic Cancer Cells by Mediating APOA1 Ubiquitination and Degradation

Scientists demonstrated that tripartite motif (TRIM) expression was elevated in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas tissues, and this elevated expression was associated with a poor prognosis.
