Journal ArticleDOI

CDK12 drives breast tumor initiation and trastuzumab resistance via WNT and IRS1-ErbB-PI3K signaling.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that CDK12 promotes tumor initiation as a novel regulator of cancer stem cells (CSCs) and induces anti-HER2 therapy resistance in human breast cancer and kinase activity inhibition facilitates anticancer efficacy of trastuzumab in HER2+ tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Restoration of Mitochondrial NAD+ Levels Delays Stem Cell Senescence and Facilitates Reprogramming of Aged Somatic Cells.

TL;DR: Investigating the molecular features underlying senescence and rejuvenation during aged cell reprogramming and identified novel factors that can overcome age‐associated barriers demonstrate that maintenance of mitochondrial NAD+ levels is critical for reversing the mechanisms of aging and ensuring that cells collected from aged individuals are of high quality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of RBP2-Induced ER and IGF1R-ErbB Signaling in Tamoxifen Resistance in Breast Cancer.

TL;DR: RBP2 activates ER-IGF1R-ErbB signaling cascade in multiple ways to induce tamoxifen resistance, suggesting that RBP2 is a potential therapeutic target for ER-driven cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

NSD3-Induced Methylation of H3K36 Activates NOTCH Signaling to Drive Breast Tumor Initiation and Metastatic Progression.

TL;DR: It is reported that N SD3-induced methylation of H3K36 is crucial for breast tumor initiation and metastasis, suggesting NSD3 as an actionable therapeutic target in metastatic breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of HK2 expression through alterations in CpG methylation of the HK2 promoter during progression of hepatocellular carcinoma.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that HK2-CGI N-shore hypomethylation and HK2 -CGI hypermethylation affect HK2 expression by influencing the interaction between HIF 1α and HRE.
