N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V drives colorectal cancer metastasis by facilitating ZO-1 ubiquitination and degradation

N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V drives colorectal cancer metastasis by facilitating ZO-1 ubiquitination and degradation

In a recent study published in “Cancer Cell International,” Yueping Zhan and others explored the role of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (MGAT5) in colorectal cancer (CRC) and its mechanism in promoting cancer cell metastasis. The publication of this paper is driven by the urgent need to study CRC due to its high mortality and metastatic characte...

FUS/CircZEB1/miR-128-3p/LBH Feedback Loop Promotes Malignant Phenotype of GSCs via TNF-α Mediated NF-κB Signaling Pathway

The Role of the Novel Circular RNA circZEB1 in the Malignant Phenotype of Glioblastoma Stem Cells and Its Molecular Mechanism Research Background Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most aggressive and fatal primary tumors in the central nervous system, with a very poor prognosis for patients. Even with surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, the ave...

Life History Dynamics of Evolving Tumors: Insights into Task Specialization, Trade-offs, and Tumor Heterogeneity

Cancer Cell International - Review Report Background and Motivation In recent decades, research into cancer evolution has gradually revealed that the evolutionary patterns of cancer cells share many similarities with species evolution. This notion has changed our understanding of tumor evolution and heterogeneity. Cancer is initiated by the mutatio...
