Abstract

Endometrial cancer (EC) is a common gynaecological cancer worldwide. Exosomes, secreted by living cells and detected in various body fluids, can exchange information between organs and compartments to affect cellular functions, such as proliferation, apoptosis, migration and angiogenesis. We hypothesise that plasma exosomal contents are altered during cancer progression and promote cancer growth and angiogenesis by delivering biomolecules to cancer and vascular endothelial cells. In this study, circulating exosomes derived from EC patients and age-matched healthy people were acquired by commercial kits. Cell counting kit-8, Transwell and Matrigel tube formation assays showed that circulating exosomes from EC patients promote EC cell growth and human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) angiogenesis. Next, proteomic analysis and ELISA revealed that plasma exosomal lectin galactoside-binding soluble 3 binding protein (LGALS3BP) increased during EC progression. Moreover, to explore the function of exosomal LGALS3BP, we acquired exosomes containing high levels of LGALS3BP by overexpressing LGALS3BP in human embryonic kidney 293 cells, and we demonstrated that highly contained exosomal LGALS3BP contributed to EC cell proliferatio...Continue Reading

Apoptosis in Cancer

Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.

Cell Migration

Cell migration is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes such as embryonic development, cancer metastasis, blood vessel formation and remoulding, tissue regeneration, immune surveillance and inflammation. Here is the latest research.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Cell Migration in Cancer and Metastasis

Migration of cancer cells into surrounding tissue and the vasculature is an initial step in tumor metastasis. Discover the latest research on cell migration in cancer and metastasis here.
