Cell cycle gene expression and E2F transcription factor complexes in human melanoma cells induced to terminally differentiate

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that terminal cell differentiation involves a co-ordinate and continuous suppression of a number of cell cycle and growth related genes and results in the development of a novel E2F transcription factor complex not apparent in growth arrested and reversibly differentiated human melanoma cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secretable chaperone Grp170 enhances therapeutic activity of a novel tumor suppressor, mda-7/IL-24.

TL;DR: Generation of systemic antitumor immunity was shown by enhanced protection against subsequent tumor challenge and improved control of distant tumors, indicating that an improved anticancer efficacy may be achieved by concurrently targeting both tumor and immune compartments.
Journal ArticleDOI

PERK-dependent regulation of MDA-7/IL-24-induced autophagy in primary human glioma cells.

TL;DR: The data demonstrate that GST-MDA-7 induces an ER stress response that, via the induction of autophagy, is causal in the activation of pro-apoptotic pathways that converge on the mitochondrion and ultimately culminate in decreased glioma cell survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and cloning of genes displaying elevated expression as a consequence of metastatic progression in human melanoma cells by rapid subtraction hybridization

TL;DR: Six known genes, 67-kDa laminin receptor (67LR), endothelin receptor B, Na+/K+-ATPase, Ku antigen, interleukin-receptor-associated kinase-1 (IRAK-1) and ribosomal protein RPLA, which may contribute to the complex process of melanoma metastasis are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting the Immunoregulator SRA/CD204 Potentiates Specific Dendritic Cell Vaccine-Induced T-cell Response and Antitumor Immunity

TL;DR: It is established that downregulating SRA/CD204 strongly enhances DC-mediated antitumor immunity and provides a rationale to enhance DC vaccine potency through SRA /CD204-targeting approaches that can improve clinical outcomes in cancer treatment.
