TGFβ/Cyclin D1/Smad-Mediated Inhibition of BMP4 Promotes Breast Cancer Stem Cell Self-Renewal Activity

Investigators investigated the interplay and networking pathways occurring between TGFβ family ligands in regulating stemness in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). They found that TGFβ stimulation of TNBCs resulted in enhanced tumorsphere formation efficiency and an increased proportion of the highly tumorigenic CD44high/CD24low cancer stem cell population.

A Synthetic mRNA Cell Reprogramming Method Using CYCLIN D1 Promotes DNA Repair Generating Improved Genetically Stable Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

Investigators demonstrated that CYCLIN D1 made induced pluripotent stem cells have lower multitelomeric signal, reduced double‐strand DNA breaks, correct nuclear localization of RAD51 protein expression, and reduced SNP changes per chromosome, compared with the classical reprogramming method using C‐MYC.

Zeb1 Serves An Oncogenic Role In The Tumorigenesis Of HCC By Promoting Cell Proliferation, Migration, And Inhibiting Apoptosis Via Wnt/β-catenin Signaling Pathway

Scientists demonstrated that the expression level of ZEB1 was significantly elevated both in liver tissues of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and cell lines. Moreover, ZEB1 could promote the proliferation, migration, and invasion of HCC cells.

A Fusion of CD63–BCAR4 Identified in Lung Adenocarcinoma Promotes Tumorigenicity and Metastasis

Based on the analysis of RNA-sequencing data, investigators identified a fusion transcript of CD63–breast cancer anti-oestrogen-resistance 4 (BCAR4) in a Korean patient with lung adenocarcinoma who did not harbour any known activating mutations in EGFR and KRAS genes. To investigate the oncogenic effect of CD63–BCAR4, in vitro and in vivo animal experiments were performed.

8-Epi-Xanthatin Induces the Apoptosis of DU145 Prostate Carcinoma Cells through Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 Inhibition and Reactive Oxygen Species Generation

The authors found STAT3 inhibitors from natural sources and found that Xanthium fruit extracts decreased phosphorylation of STAT3‐Y705. 8‐Epi‐xanthatin (EXT) was isolated from the extracts. When DU145 prostate cancer cells were treated with EXT, p‐STAT3‐Y705 was decreased with an IC50 of 3.2μM.
