Rab1a, a member RAS oncogene family, has been reported playing important role in tumor proliferation and migration. However, the role of Rab1a in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is not clear. In this study, we found Rab1a was overexpressed in ICC tissues both in mRNA and protein level.
OBJECTIVE
Tumor progression is promoted by the ability of tumor cells to resist adverse environmental conditions such as hypoxia. We have shown that translational dysregulation contributes to transformed cell growth in malignant cholangiocytes. Translational regulation of gene expression can
OBJECTIVE
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHCC) is known to be one of the most malignant tumors. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a transcription factor, which plays a central role in biologic processes under hypoxic conditions. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of HIF-1 in
Hypoxia and autophagy are known to facilitate tumor progression. We here aimed to investigate the role of hypoxia-associated autophagy in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) survival and metastasis. Immunostaining of hypoxic- responsive proteins (HIF-1α and BNIP3) and a key regulator of autophagy (PI3KC3) were
Hypoxia is associated with tumor progression and poor prognosis in several cancer types. The present study aimed to examine the contribution of hypoxia (1% O2) to cancer progression in a cholangiocarcinoma cell line, RMCCA‑1. The molecular basis of the hypoxic response pathway was investigated. The
BACKGROUND
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) induces tumor cell death by oxidative stress and hypoxia but also survival signaling through activation of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1). Since perihilar cholangiocarcinomas are relatively recalcitrant to PDT, the aims were to (1) determine the expression
Aberrant activation of Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) pathway has been implicated in a variety of cancers including cholangiocarcinoma (CC); however, the influencing factors are still unknown. Additionally, intratumoral hypoxia is known to contribute towards therapeutic resistance through modulatory effects
Hypoxia, a common feature of solid tumors, plays a significant role in determining tumor phenotype and tumor progression. In this study, using an in-house PCR-array, we investigated phenotypic changes and differentially expressed hypoxia related genes in the KKU-M213 CCA cell line, cultured under
OBJECTIVE
Distinguishing between malignant and benign biliary strictures remains problematic. The aim of this study was to compare and contrast the clinical features of patients with benign and malignant biliary strictures.
METHODS
Medical records of patients who underwent surgical resection for
Purpose
In intrahepatic
cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA), genetic characteristics on
18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (
18F-FDG)-PET scans are not yet clarified. If specific genetic characteristics were found to be related to FDG uptake in iCCA, we can predict molecular
Intra-tumoral hypoxia is an environment that promotes tumor cell migration, angiogenesis and epithelial- mesenchymal transition that accounts for a major mechanism of metastasis. Chloroquine potentially offers a new therapeutic approach with an 'old' drug for effective and safe cancer therapies, as
To explore the effects of Mucins (MUC)1-shRNA on the proliferation and hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1alpha expression of human cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) QBC939 cells in vitro. MUC1-shRNA was constructed and transfected with Lipofectamine™ 2000 into cultured CCA cells. MUC1 mRNA and protein
MicroRNA-210 (miR-210) is a robust target for hypoxia-inducible factor, and its overexpression has been detected in a variety of solid tumors. However, the role of miR-210 in the development, progression and response to therapy in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) remains undefined. We report here that high
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the role of thymidine phosphorylase (TP) in cholangiocarcinoma using small interfering RNA (siRNA).
METHODS
A human cholangiocarcinoma-derived cell line KKU-M139, which has a naturally high level of endogenous TP, had TP expression transiently knocked down using siRNA. Cell
Hypoxia, which is frequently observed in liver cancer and metastasis, influences tumor progression and resistance to therapy. Although hypoxia-associated biomarkers are of use in other cancers, none is recognized as a surrogate for hypoxia in liver cancer. In this study, we generated seven unique
