The study aims to evaluate the effects of miR-136 on the proliferation, apoptosis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of melanoma cells by targetting premelanosome protein (PMEL) through the Wnt signaling pathway. After establishment of melanoma mouse models, melanoma (model group) and normal tissues (normal group) were collected. Immunohistochemistry was performed to determine PMEL pr...

BACKGROUND MET is involved in the progression of several types of human cancers, while phospho-BAD(Ser-136) is a key molecule in apoptosis and might be regulated by MET. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between altered expression of MET and phospho-BAD in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and their association with clinicopathologic parameters and overall survival. ME...

PI3K/AKT and RAF/MEK/ERK pathways are constitutively activated in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients, thus representing attractive therapeutic targets. Here we report that the PI3K/ERK dual inhibitor AEZS-136 induced significant cell proliferation inhibition in L-540, SUP-HD1, KM-H2 and L-428 HL cell lines, but a significant increase in necroptotic cell death was observed only in two out of four ce...

Twelve P-chiral phosphine oxides were screened for their ability to act as a chiral Lewis base catalyst for the asymmetric hydrosilylation of ketimines, providing chiral amines in good conversion and yield, but relatively poor enantioselectivity (ee <30%). Mechanistic studies paralleling work on chiral sulfinamides have shown a non-linear relationship of catalyst enantioselectivity and the chir...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in regulating the response of cancer cells to various therapeutic interventions, yet their involvement in the chemoresistance of human epithelial ovarian cancer is not fully understood. We found that miR-136 was significantly downregulated in specimens from patients with chemoresistant epithelial ovarian cancer. In the present study, we aimed to clarify the role ...
