Key Roles of p53 Signaling Pathway-Related Factors GADD45B and SERPINE1 in the Occurrence and Development of Gastric Cancer by Yaoqing Li, Liyijing Shen, Kelong Tao, Guangen Xu, Kewei Ji

“…We tried to identify the key factors of the p53 signaling pathway involved in gastric cancer (GC) occurrence and development based on the genotype-tissue expression (GTEx) and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) screening. We downloaded gene expression data and clinical data of GC included in the GTEx and TCGA databases, followed by differential analysis. …”

SMYD3 drives cell cycle and epithelial-mesenchymal transition pathways through dual gene transcriptional repression and activation in HPV-negative head and neck cancer by Madhavi Murali, Abbas Saeed, Sohyoung Kim, Kyunghee Burkitt, Hui Cheng, Arfa Moshiri, Jawad Akhtar, Daniel Tsai, Marie Luff, Baktiar Karim, Vassiliki Saloura

“…Accordingly, xenografts of SMYD3 knockout tumors derived from a human HPV-negative HNSCC cell line grew significantly slower compared to control tumors in mice. Genome-wide mapping for SMYD3 and H3K4me3 in HPV-negative HNSCC cells using cleavage under targets and release using nuclease (CUT&RUN) assays identified direct downstream gene targets regulated by SMYD3, including cell cycle- and EMT-promoting genes. …”
