introduction: survivin, an inhibitor of apoptosis (iap) containing one baculoviral iap repeat (bir) domain, has been reported to be able to regulate both cellular proliferation and apoptotic cell death. in the present study, we evaluated the differential expression of different variants of survivin during prenatal and postnatal development of brain in mice. material and methods a total of 27 nm...

Survivin plays separate roles during different phases of the cell cycle. In mitosis, Survivin is a key regulator of cell division, while in interphase, Survivin is able to protect cells from apoptosis. Survivin shuttles between nucleus and cytoplasm under the influence of one or more nuclear export signals (NESs). Paradoxically, our data show that Survivin poorly binds CRM1 in vitro because hyd...

BACKGROUND Survivin is highly expressed in cancer cells but shows little or no expression in normal tissues. Little is known about antibody responses to survivin in patients with head and neck cancer. METHODS Anti-survivin antibody responses in patients with head and neck cancer were investigated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Anti-p53 antibody and squamous cell carcinoma antigen were ...

Survivin, the smallest member of IAP (inhibitor of apoptosis) family, is a dual functional protein acting as a critical apoptosis inhibitor and key cell cycle regulator. Survivin is usually expressed in embryonic tissues during development and undetectable in most terminally differentiated tissues. Numerous studies demonstrate that survivin is selectively upregulated in almost all types of huma...

BACKGROUND Cancer stem cells have been investigated as new targets for colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment. We recently reported that CD133+ colon cancer cells showed chemoresistance to 5-fluorouracil through increased survivin expression and proposed the survivin inhibitor YM155 as an effective therapy for colon cancer in an in vitro study. Here, we investigate the relationship between survivin ...

The survivin protein, a member of the inhibitors of apoptosis (IAP) family, has gained popularity as a therapeutic target for cancer due to its selective expression in tumor cells and its significant involvement in tumor cell viability. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the survivin-small interfering RNA (siRNA) plasmid on sur...

of apoptosis proteins, functions as a key regulator of apoptosis and cell proliferation. Overexpression of survivin has been implicated in several human cancers, including human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although several factors have been shown in vitro to upregulate survivin expression in cancer cells, the in vivo regulators of survivin in human hepatocarcinogenesis are largely unknown. ...

Breast cancer is the leading cause of death in women across globe. The aim this study to compare exosomal survivin levels breast patients and healthy population. It also investigate relationship between clinicopathological parameters levels. Patients who were diagnosed with histopathologically confirmed volunteers included study. Serum samples from stored at -80℃. Exosomes isolated these serum ...

The purpose of this study was to assess the correlation between the survivin gene and the occurrence and pathogenesis of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Sixty patients with PTC and no preoperative chemotherapy were recruited for the study and 30 thyrophyma patients receiving operative treatment in Drum Tower Hospital (Nanjing, China) were included as the control group. The protein expression...
