TUBB3/{beta}III-tubulin acts through the PTEN/AKT signaling axis to promote tumorigenesis and anoikis resistance in non-small cell lung cancer.

βIII-tubulin (TUBB3) expression is associated with therapeutic resistance and aggressive disease in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the basis for its pathogenic influence is not understood. Functional and differential proteomics revealed that ...

Omentum and Ovarian Cancer Cross-Talk

Omental adipose stromal cells (O-ASC) are a multipotent population of mesenchymal stem cells contained in the omentum tissue that promote endometrial and ovarian tumor proliferation, migration, and drug resistance. The mechanistic underpinnings of O-A...

Nitric oxide mediates metabolic coupling of omentum-derived adipose to ovarian and endometrial cancer cells

Omental adipose stromal cells (O-ASCs) are multipotent population of mesenchymal stem cells contained in the omentum tissue which promote endometrial and ovarian tumor proliferation, migration and drug resistance. The mechanistic underpinnings of O-ASC...

HAF SUMOylation Drives HIF2 in CRCC

Clear-cell renal cell cancer (CRCC) is initiated typically by loss of the tumor-suppressor VHL, driving constitutive activation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF1) and HIF2. However, whereas HIF1 has a tumor-suppressor role, HIF2 plays a distinct rol...

Hypoxia-induced SUMOylation of E3 ligase HAF determines specific activation of HIF-2 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma

Clear cell kidney cancer (CRCC) is initiated typically by loss of the tumor suppressor VHL, driving constitutive activation of HIF-1 and HIF-2. However, whereas HIF-1 has a tumor suppressor role, HIF-2 plays a distinct role in driving CRCC. In this stu...
