In the cervical cancer cell (HeLa) with endogenous high TRIM3 expression, increased expression of miR-454-3p obviously inhibited TRIM3 expression and then manipulating cell growth and apoptosis, down-regulating the expression of P53 and cleaved caspase-3 via P38 MAPK signaling.
Accordingly, these data demonstrate that the anticancer activity of B1 is associated with the activation of p53 and the release of cytochrome c, which suggest that B1 might have therapeutic potential against cervix carcinoma as an effective lead compound.
On the other hand, 2 of 3 stage IIa cancers and 1 Ib G3 carcinoma were found to be p53 positive, thus supporting the notion that p53 inactivation is a relatively late event in the progression of cervical cancer.
Our data show that mutation of TP53 is infrequent in primary cervical carcinoma and there is no inverse correlation between HPV infection and TP53 gene mutation.
The expression of p53was negative in normal cervix, while there were 48 p53-positive cases (61.54%) and 30 p53-negative cases (38.46%) in patients with cervical cancer (p<0.05).
1) To analyze the expression of Ki-67, p53 and p16(INK4a) in cervical cancer, 2) to correlate the relative expression of these proteins as well as clinical parameters with the stage of disease, and 3) to determine the HPV DNA prevalence and subtype distribution.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether activation of the p53 and retinoblastoma (Rb) pathway by HPV-16 E6 and E7 repression was responsible for apoptosis and senescence of cervical cancer cells and to explore the potential of an antisense RNA (AS) transcript for gene therapy of cervical cancer.
Hypoxia may inhibits the NHEJ DNA repair through downregulating Ku70/80 expression and combined with an increased angiogenesis and altered p53 expression would be responsible for tumor progression in cervical carcinoma.
Thus, we investigated whether E6 oncoprotein could regulate VEGF expression in HPV18-positive cervical cancer-derived HeLa cells harboring a wild-type p53.
These results suggest that MSI-2 plays a crucial role in promoting the aggressive phenotypes of CC cells, and restoration of miR-143/miR-107 by Mithramycin A via activation of p53 may represent a novel therapeutic approach for CC.
Loss of miR-140/142/340/383 contributes to PD-L1 upregulation. miR-18a enhances PD-L1 levels by targeting PTEN, WNK2 (ERK1/2 pathway inhibitor), and SOX6 (Wnt/β-catenin pathway inhibitor and p53 pathway activator) to activate the PI3K/AKT, MEK/ERK, and Wnt/β-catenin pathways and inhibit the p53 pathway, and miR-18a also directly suppresses the expression of the tumor suppressors BTG3 and RBSP3 (CTDSPL). miR-18a overexpression in CC cells is triggered by OCT4 overexpression.
We previously demonstrated inefficient HPV E6-mediated degradation and resulting high steady-state levels of p53 in cell hybrids between a peripheral neuroepithelioma cell line and a cervical carcinoma cell line (HeLa).
