Transcriptional Network Constituted of CBP, Ku70, NOX2, and BAX Prevents the Cell Death of Necrosis, Paraptosis, and Apoptosis in Human Melanoma

Knocking down CREB-binding protein or Ku70 induced necrotic and paraptotic cell death as indicated by high-level intracellular reactive oxygen species, cytoplasmic vacuolization, and cell cycle arrest in the S phase.

Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2-Mediated Paired Box 8 Methylation Promotes Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Progression through Wnt4 Downregulation

The authors explored whether enhancer of zeste homolog 2-mediated paired box 8 methylation affects gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) development through regulation of Wnt4. A total of 50 cases of GIST tissues were collected and the human GIST cell lines were cultured.

Integrin α2β1 Inhibition Attenuates Prostate Cancer Cell Proliferation by Cell Cycle Arrest, Promoting Apoptosis and Reducing Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition

Investigators examined the effects of the inhibitor BTT‐3033, which selectively interferes with the connection between integrin a2b1 and its ligand, on migration, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and specific intracellular signaling pathways using LNcap‐FGC and DU‐145 prostate cancer cell lines.
