Remarkable inhibition of mTOR signaling by the combination of rapamycin and 1,4‐phenylenebis(methylene)selenocyanate in human prostate cancer cellsEmail this article to a colleague.
Save this article to My Clippings.
Discuss or comment on this article.
AbstractPreclinical studies and clinical analyses have implicated the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway in the progression of prostate cancer, suggesting mTOR as a potential target for new therapies. mTOR, a serine/threonine kinase, belongs to two distinct signaling complexes: mTORC1 and mTORC2. We previously showed that the synthetic organoselenium compound, p‐XSC, effectively inhibits viability and critical signaling molecules (e.g., androgen receptor, Akt) in androgen responsive (AR) and androgen independent (AI) human prostate cancer cells. Based on its inhibition of Akt, we hypothesized that p‐XSC modul...

AbstractExome sequencing of human breast cancers has revealed a substantial number of candidate cancer genes with recurring but infrequent somatic mutations. To determine more accurately their mutation prevalence, we performed a mutation analysis of 36 novel candidate cancer genes in 96 human breast cancers. Somatic mutations with potential impact on protein function were observed in the genes ADAM12, CENTB1, CENTG1, DIP2C, GLI1, GRIN2D, HDLBP, IKBKB, KPNA5, NFKB1, NOTCH1, and OTOF. These findings strengthen the evidence for involvement of the Notch, Hedgehog, NF‐KB, and PIK3CA pathways in breast cancer development, and ...

In this report, we showed that IL‐22 stimulated production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the anti‐apoptotic factor Bcl‐XL in IL‐22R‐positive HPAFII human pancreatic cancer cells. Additionally, IL‐22 augmented HPAFII cell production of immunosuppressive cytokines. We further showed that IL‐22 activation of HPAFII cells diminished T cell production of IFN‐γ through the action of IL‐10. Strikingly, we showed for the first time that IL‐22 can fully protect cancer cells from NK cell‐mediated cytotoxicity by stimulating tumor production of IL‐10 and TGF‐β1. Our data supports the ide...

In this study, we sought to examine the effect of Andro on autophagy, and to evaluate whether such effect is relevant to the sensitization effect of Andro on apoptosis induced by DNA damage agents in cancer cells. First, we found that Andro is able to significantly enhance autophagic markers in various cancer cell lines, including GFP-LC3 puncta and LC3-II level. Interestingly, Andro treatment also led to marked increase of p62 protein level and addition of chloroquine (CQ) failed to further enhance either LC3-II or p62 level, indicating that Andro is likely to suppress autophagic flux at the maturation and degradation sta...

Abstract
Autophagy is a conserved constitutive cellular process, responsible for the degradation of dysfunctional proteins and organelles. Autophagy plays a role in many diseases such as neurodegeneration and cancer; however, to date, conventional autophagy detection techniques are not suitable for clinical samples. We have developed a high throughput, statistically robust technique that quantitates autophagy in primary human leukocytes using the Image stream, an imaging flow cytometer. We validate this method on cell lines and primary cells knocked down for essential autophagy genes. Also, using this method we sho...

AbstractThymidylate synthase (TS) is an important enzyme involved in folate metabolism and catalyzes methylation of dUMP to dTMP, which is essential for DNA replication. TSER and TS1494del6, two functionally important and ethnically diverse polymorphisms mapping to its gene region, are the most extensively studied. Considering the potential influence of altering TS activity, it is plausible that TS polymorphisms might play a role in the development of cancer. Although the effects of TS polymorphisms on susceptibility to human cancer have been investigated in many studies, the results remain conflicting rather than conclusi...

The new method was extensively evaluated on fluorescence data from simulation, fluorescent standard dyes, ex vivo tissue samples of atherosclerotic plaques and in vivo oral carcinoma. Current results demonstrate that this method allows for rapid and accurate deconvolution o...
