B-Myb Accelerates Colorectal Cancer Progression through Reciprocal Feed-Forward Transactivation of E2F2

B-Myb overexpression accelerated cell proliferation, cell cycle progression and cell motility in colorectal cancer cells, and promoted tumor growth in orthotopic nude mouse models in vivo.

PGE2-JNK Signaling Axis Non-Canonically Promotes Gli Activation by Protecting Gli2 from Ubiquitin-Proteasomal Degradation

Colorectal cancer cells hijacked prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) to non-canonically promote Hedgehog transcriptional factor Gli activity and Gli-dependent proliferation of colorectal cancer cells in a Smo-independent manner.

NF-κB-Activated SPRY4-IT1 Promotes Cancer Cell Metastasis by Downregulating TCEB1 mRNA via Staufen1-Mediated mRNA Decay

The authors described the role of the long non-coding RNA SPRY4 intronic transcript 1 (SPRY4-IT1) in cancer metastasis by mechanisms related to Staufen1-mediated mRNA decay, and found that high SPRY4-IT1 expression was associated with aggressiveness and poor outcome in human colorectal, breast and ovarian cancer tissues.

Some Bryophytes Trigger Cytotoxicity of Stem Cell-like Population in 5-Fluorouracil Resistant Colon Cancer Cells

Scientists evaluated the effects of Bryophytes like Abietinella abietina, Homolothecium sericeum, Tortella tortuosa, Syntrichia ruralis, and Bryoerythrophyllum rubrum species extracted with ethyl alcohol on 5-fluorouracil resistant colorectal cancer cell lines.

14-3-3σ Functions as an Intestinal Tumor Suppressor

The authors determined that 14-3-3σ expression was significantly downregulated in primary human colorectal cancer when compared with adjacent normal colonic tissue in patient samples. Downregulation of 14-3-3σ in primary colorectal cancers was significantly associated with p53 mutation, increasing tumor stage, distant metastasis, and poor patient survival.

PRDX2 Promotes the Proliferation of Colorectal Cancer Cells by Increasing the Ubiquitinated Degradation of p53

The authors investigated the mechanisms by which PRDX2 promoted the proliferation of colorectal cancer, and found that the oncogenic property of PRDX2 may have been attributed to its regulation of the RPL4-MDM2-p53 pathway, leading to p53 ubiquitinated degradation.

Cell Surface Integrin α5ß1 Clustering Negatively Regulates Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Signaling in Colorectal Cancer Cells via Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3

The clustering of integrin α5ß1 at the plasma membrane of colorectal cancer-derived epithelial cells modulated their ability to respond to stimulation by receptor tyrosine kinase-activating growth factors EGF, NRG and HGF, through GSK3-mediated suppression of Akt pathway.
