Journal ArticleDOI
Epithelial to mesenchymal transition is mechanistically linked with stem cell signatures in prostate cancer cells.
TL;DR: In this article, a mechanistic understanding of prostate cancer recurrence and metastasis is proposed, which is closely linked with the biology of prostate stem cells or cancer-initiating cells that is reminiscent of the acquisition of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI
Loss of Let-7 Up-Regulates EZH2 in Prostate Cancer Consistent with the Acquisition of Cancer Stem Cell Signatures That Are Attenuated by BR-DIM
Dejuan Kong,Elisabeth I. Heath,Wei Chen,Michael L. Cher,Isaac J. Powell,Lance K. Heilbrun,Yiwei Li,Shadan Ali,Seema Sethi,Oudai Hassan,Clara Hwang,Nilesh S. Gupta,Dhananjay Chitale,Wael Sakr,Mani Menon,Fazlul H. Sarkar +15 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the loss of let-7 mediated increased expression of EZH2 contributes to PCa aggressiveness, which could be attenuated by BR-DIM treatment, and thus BR- DIM is likely to have clinical impact.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphoglucose Isomerase/Autocrine Motility Factor mediates epithelial-mesenchymal transition regulated by miR-200 in breast cancer cells
Aamir Ahmad,Amro Aboukameel,Dejuan Kong,Zhiwei Wang,Seema Sethi,Wei Chen,Fazlul H. Sarkar,Avraham Raz +7 more
TL;DR: A role ofmiR-200s in PGI/AMF-induced EMT is suggested and approaches for upregulation of miR- 200s could be a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of highly invasive breast cancer.
Journal Article
Molecular signature of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in human prostate cancer bone metastasis.
TL;DR: Variation in the aberrant expression patterns at the invasive tumor front indicates the role of EMT markers in tumor invasion and suggests that Notch-1 could play a role in PCa bone metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypoxia-Induced Aggressiveness of Pancreatic Cancer Cells Is Due to Increased Expression of VEGF, IL-6 and miR-21, Which Can Be Attenuated by CDF Treatment
Bin Bao,Shadan Ali,Aamir Ahmad,Asfar S. Azmi,Yiwei Li,Sanjeev Banerjee,Dejuan Kong,Seema Sethi,Amro Aboukameel,Subhash Padhye,Fazlul H. Sarkar +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that hypoxia leads to increased expression of VEGF, IL-6, and CSC signature genes Nanog, Oct4 and EZH2 consistent with increased cell migration/invasion and angiogenesis, and the formation of pancreatospheres, and thus CDF could become a novel, and effective anti-tumor agent for PC therapy.
