Invasive progression is the major lethal cause of prostate cancer. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of kindlin-2, an integrin-binding focal adhesion protein, in the regulation of invasiveness of prostate cancer. We found that downregulation of kindlin-2 using small interfering RNA (siRNA) technology significantly inhibited the invasion of PC-3 and DU-145 prostate cancer cells in a Matrigel...
Hypoxic regions are common in solid tumors and have an impact on tumor progression and on the therapeutic response. However, the underlying mechanism for hypoxic tumor microenvironment has not been entirely elucidated. Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are being increasingly recognized to contribute to carcinogenesis through diverse mechanisms. To date, several lncRNAs have been described in...
Over the past fifteen years, small regulatory RNAs, such as siRNA and miRNA, have been extensively investigated and the underlying molecular mechanisms have been well documented, suggesting that ncRNAs play a major function in many cellular processes. An expanding body of evidence reveals that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), once described as dark matter, are involved in diverse cellular progresses,...
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important staple food crops in the world, and rice tillering and panicle branching are important traits determining grain yield. Since the gene MONOCULM 1 (MOC 1) was first characterized as a key regulator in controlling rice tillering and branching, great progress has been achieved in identifying important genes associated with grain yield, elucidating the...
