Journal ArticleDOI
Notch and TGFβ form a positive regulatory loop and regulate EMT in epithelial ovarian cancer cells.
Jiesi Zhou,Saket Jain,Abul K. Azad,Xia Xu,Hai Chuan Yu,Zhihua Xu,Roseline Godbout,Yang Xin Fu +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that Notch and TGFβ form a reciprocal positive regulatory loop and cooperatively regulate EMT and promote EOC cell motility and migration.
Journal ArticleDOI
The FABP12/PPARγ pathway promotes metastatic transformation by inducing epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and lipid-derived energy production in prostate cancer cells.
Rong-Zong Liu,Won-Shik Choi,Saket Jain,Deepak Dinakaran,Xia Xu,Woo Hyun Han,Xiao‐Hong Yang,Darryl D. Glubrecht,Ronald B. Moore,Hélène Lemieux,Roseline Godbout +10 more
TL;DR: A novel role is pointed to for a FABP‐PPAR pathway in promoting PCa metastasis through induction of EMT and lipid bioenergetics and increased reliance on fatty acids for energy production.
Journal ArticleDOI
FABP7 Facilitates Uptake of Docosahexaenoic Acid in Glioblastoma Neural Stem-like Cells.
Won-Shik Choi,Xia Xu,Susan Goruk,Yixiong Wang,Samir Patel,Michael Chow,Catherine J. Field,Roseline Godbout +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the fatty acid composition of patient-derived GBM neural stem-like cells grown as neurosphere cultures and found that increasing DHA content in the GBM microenvironment may reduce the migration/infiltration of FABP7-expressing NST-like cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
DDX1 vesicles control calcium-dependent mitochondrial activity in mouse embryos
TL;DR: In this paper , the DEAD box protein DDX1 was found to be required for the formation of Membrane Associated RNA-containing Vesicles which in turn regulate the spatial distribution of calcium in embryos.
