Journal ArticleDOI
Pooled analysis of fluorouracil-based adjuvant therapy for stage II and III colon cancer: who benefits and by how much?
Sharlene Gill,Charles L. Loprinzi,Daniel J. Sargent,Stephan D. Thomé,Steven R. Alberts,Daniel G. Haller,Jacqueline Benedetti,Guido Francini,Lois E. Shepherd,Jean Francois Seitz,Roberto Labianca,Wei Chen,Stephen S. Cha,Michael P. Heldebrant,Richard M. Goldberg +14 more
TL;DR: Patients with high-risk resected colon cancer obtain benefit from FU-based therapy across subsets of age, sex, location, T stage, nodal status, and grade, which may improve patients' and physicians' understanding of the potential benefits of adjuvant therapy.
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 Article
Differentially expressed miRNAs in the plasma may provide a molecular signature for aggressive pancreatic cancer.
TL;DR: The results suggest that identifying and validating the expression of microRNAs in newly diagnosed patients could serve as potential biomarker for tumor aggressiveness, and such miRNAs could be useful for the screening of high-risk patients, and may also serve as targets for future drug development.
