Kallikrein-related peptidase 6 regulates epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and serves as prognostic biomarker for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients

TL;DR: In this article, the expression of Kallikrein-related peptidase 6 (KLK6) is a common feature for many human malignancies and numerous studies evaluated KLK6 as a promising biomarker for early diagnosis or unfavorable prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenotype-assisted transcriptome analysis identifies FOXM1 downstream from Ras–MKK3–p38 to regulate in vitro cellular invasion

TL;DR: FoxM1, PLK1 and CDK1 are identified to be differentially regulated in invasive Ha-RasEJ-NIH3T3 and MKK3act–NIH 3T3 cells and FOXM1 is identified as a key downstream target of Ras and Mkk3-induced cellular in vitro invasion and anchorage-independent growth signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

High S100A8 and S100A12 protein expression is a favorable prognostic factor for survival of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

TL;DR: Analysis of S100/calgranulin protein levels in a retrospective patient cohort of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma patients revealed worse overall survival of OPSCC patients with simultaneous reduction of S 100A8 and S100A12 expression, suggesting distinct regulation and function of individual S100 /calgranulins in the pathogenesis of HNSCCs.
