The Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitor Celecoxib Induces Apoptosis by Blocking Akt Activation in Human Prostate Cancer Cells Independently of Bcl-2

TL;DR: The data demonstrate that inhibition of Akt activation may play a crucial role in the induction of apoptosis by celecoxib, supported by studies showing that overexpression of constitutively active Akt protects PC-3 cells from Celecoxib-induced apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide hypomethylation in human glioblastomas associated with specific copy number alteration, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase allele status, and increased proliferation.

TL;DR: It is reported that global hypomethylation is common in primary human glioblastomas [glioblastoma multiforme (GBM] and can affect up to an estimated 10 million CpG dinucleotides per haploid tumor genome, and that MTHFR deficiency-associated demethylation leads to increased proliferative activity in GBM.
Journal ArticleDOI

HSF-1 Regulators DDL-1/2 Link Insulin-like Signaling to Heat-Shock Responses and Modulation of Longevity

TL;DR: Findings point to DDL-1/2 as a link between IIS and the HSF-1 pathway, which increases longevity and thermotolerance in an hsf-1-dependent manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigenome analyses using BAC microarrays identify evolutionary conservation of tissue-specific methylation of SHANK3

TL;DR: A method for high-resolution analysis of the methylation status of CpG islands genome-wide, using arrays of BAC clones and themethylation-sensitive restriction enzyme NotI is developed, demonstrating the accuracy and specificity of the method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinct ligand binding sites in integrin α3β1 regulate matrix adhesion and cell–cell contact

TL;DR: It is concluded that α3β1 regulates both cell–cell contact and matrix adhesion, but through distinct protein interaction sites within its β-propeller, which reveals an integrin- and Src-dependent pathway for SLUG expression and mesenchymal transition.
