TL;DR

A specific mechanism whereby HOXC9 transcriptionally activates NRP1 is elucidated, thereby contributing to CRC malignant development and immune evasion and elucidate a specific mechanism whereby NRP1 overexpression could reverse CRC progression inhibition and immune function enhancement caused by HOXC9 downregulation.

Transcription factor KLF4 suppresses the malignant progression of colorectal cancer by activating ETFDH transcription.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Electron transfer flavoprotein dehydrogenase (ETFDH) is a novel prognostic biomarker for human CRC. However, the role and molecular mechanism of ETFDH in CRC are still unclear. DEGs in CRC development were identified using mRNA microarray dat...

GATA2-driven ZNF486-JAM2 activation collaboratively counteracts epithelial-mesenchymal transition and in vitro invasion in endometrial cancer

GATA2 inhibits EMT, invasion, and migration in UCEC by transcriptionally activating the ZNF486-JAM2 axis and provides a potential molecular framework for understanding UCEC progression.

HOXC9 promotes cell proliferation and suppresses mitochondria-dependent apoptosis through the AKT/mTOR pathway in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

A potential mechanism by which HOXC9 contributes to ESCC progression via AKT/mTOR-mediated inhibition of mitochondria-dependent apoptosis and promotion of cell proliferation is identified.

FOXM1-mediated transcriptional activation of CILP2 promotes malignant phenotypes and EMT-associated remodeling in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

BACKGROUND Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common histological subtype of renal cancer and remains associated with aggressive progression and poor clinical outcomes. Cartilage intermediate layer protein 2 (CILP2), an extracellular matrix-associated secreted protein, has been implicated in tumor-rela...

METTL1/USP48 Axis Stabilizes LCN2 Expression to Promote the Malignant Phenotypes of Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Clinically, these findings identify the METTL1/USP48/LCN2 pathway as a potential therapeutic target for cSCC and elucidated a novel oncogenic axis in cSCC, wherein METTL1 stabilized USP48 mRNA through m7G methylation modification, and USP48 in turn deubiquitinated and stabilized LCN2 protein.
