Abstract

Vorinostat has good therapeutic efficacy against primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma in the refractory stage. However, the molecular mechanism by which it inhibits solid tumors has not been clarified. To investigate the tumor inhibitory mechanism of vorinostat in cervical cancer, this study used Cell Counting Kit-8, flow cytometry, cell invasion and migration assays and the wound healing assay to evaluate the effects of vorinostat on cervical cancer cell proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle, migration, and invasion. Real-time quantitative PCR and immunoblotting were used to detect gene and protein expression, respectively, of major histocompatibility class I-related chain A, phosphoinositide 3-kinase, phosphorylated PI3K p55 (Tyr199), and p-Akt (Ser473). The lactate dehydrogenase cytotoxicity assay was used to evaluate the ability of natural killer-92 cells to lyse cervical cancer cells. A xenograft nude mouse model was established to analyze the anti-tumor effect of vorinostat in vivo. Our results showed that vorinostat inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of cervical cancer cells. Vorinostat also induced apoptosis and cell-cycle arrest in the S phase, inhibited PI3K (p110α), p-PI3K p55 (Tyr199), and p-Akt (Ser47...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

Actin, Myosin & Cell Movement

Contractile forces generated by the actin-myosin cytoskeleton are critical for morphogenesis, but the cellular and molecular mechanisms of contraction have been elusive for many cell shape changes and movements. Here is the latest research on the roles of actin and myosin in cell movement.

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

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.

Cancer Biology: Molecular Imaging

Molecular imaging enables noninvasive imaging of key molecules that are crucial to tumor biology. Discover the latest research in molecular imaging in cancer biology in this feed.
