Abstract

A-kinase anchor protein 12 (AKAP12; also known as Gravin) functions as a tumor suppressor in several human primary cancers. However, the potential correlation between histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) and AKAP12 and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Thus, in this study, in an aim to shed light into this matter, the expression levels of HDAC3 and AKAP12 in 96 colorectal cancer (CRC) and adjacent non-cancerous tissues, as well as in SW480 cells were examined by immunohistochemical, RT-qPCR and western blot analyses. The effects of HDAC3 and AKAP12 on the proliferation, apoptosis and metastasis of CRC cells were examined by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, colony formation assays, flow cytometry, cell cycle analysis and Transwell assays. The results revealed that the reduction or loss of AKAP12 expression was detected in 69 (71.8%) of the 96 tissue specimens, whereas HDAC3 was upregulated in 50 (52.1%) of the 96 tumor tissue specimens. AKAP12 expression was markedly increased upon treatment with the HDAC3 inhibitors, trichostatin A (TSA) and RGFP966, at both the mRNA and protein level. Mechanistically, the direct binding of HDAC3 within the intron-1 region of AKAP12 was identified to be indispensable for the inhibition of AK...Continue Reading

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

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.

BCL-2 Family Proteins

BLC-2 family proteins are a group that share the same homologous BH domain. They play many different roles including pro-survival signals, mitochondria-mediated apoptosis and removal or damaged cells. They are often regulated by phosphorylation, affecting their catalytic activity. Here is the latest research on BCL-2 family proteins.

AKT Pathway

This feed focuses on the AKT serine/threonine kinase, which is an important signaling pathway involved in processes such as glucose metabolism and cell survival.

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.
