Journal ArticleDOI
Parathyroid hormone regulation of Na+,K+-ATPase requires the PDZ 1 domain of sodium hydrogen exchanger regulatory factor-1 in opossum kidney cells
Syed J. Khundmiri,Edward J. Weinman,Edward J. Weinman,Deborah Steplock,Judith A. Cole,Aamir Ahmad,Patrick D. Baumann,Michelle T. Barati,Madhavi J. Rane,Eleanor D. Lederer,Eleanor D. Lederer +10 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that NHERF-1 is necessary for PTH-mediated inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase activity and that the inhibition is mediated through the PDZ1, not PDZ2, domain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perspectives on the role of isoflavones in prostate cancer.
Aamir Ahmad,Bernhard Biersack,Yiwei Li,Bin Bao,Dejuan Kong,Shadan Ali,Sanjeev Banerjee,Fazlul H. Sarkar +7 more
TL;DR: A novel role of genistein and other isoflavones in the potentiation of radiation therapy, epigenetic regulation of key tumor suppressors and oncogenes, and the modulation of miRNAs, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, and cancer stem cells is indicated, which has renewed the interest of cancer researchers in this class of anticancer compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
ETV4 Facilitates Cell-Cycle Progression in Pancreatic Cells through Transcriptional Regulation of Cyclin D1.
Nikhil Tyagi,Sachin Kumar Deshmukh,Sanjeev K. Srivastava,Shafquat Azim,Aamir Ahmad,Ahmed Al-Ghadhban,Ajay P. Singh,James E. Carter,Bin Wang,Seema Singh +9 more
TL;DR: Mechanistic studies revealed that ETV4 directly regulates the expression of Cyclin D1 CCND1, a protein crucial for cell-cycle progression from G1- to S-phase, which provides the first experimental evidence for a functional role of ETV 4 in pancreatic cancer growth and cell- cycle progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
The therapeutic potential of targeting the epithelial-mesenchymal transition in cancer.
TL;DR: Latest updates on the evidences that further highlight an association between various signaling pathways and EMT are provided, with a focus on therapeutic targets that may have the potential to reverse EMT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differentially expressed miRNAs in cancer-stem-like cells: markers for tumor cell aggressiveness of pancreatic cancer
Bin Bao,Shadan Ali,Aamir Ahmad,Yiwei Li,Sanjeev Banerjee,Dejuan Kong,Amro Aboukameel,Ramzi M. Mohammad,Eric Van Buren,Asfar S. Azmi,Fazlul H. Sarkar +10 more
TL;DR: The results clearly suggest the importance of miRNAs in the regulation of CSLC characteristics, and may serve as novel targets for therapy.
