Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) have been previously implicated in the proliferation of human T-lymphocytes and melanocytes as well as in the motility of astrocytes. We have examined RyR expression in 57 ductal, human breast cancer specimens, by immunohistochemistry. Moderate to high RyR immunostaining
We have evaluated and provided evidence that the ryanodine receptor 3 gene (RYR3), which encodes a large protein that forms a calcium channel, is important for the growth, morphology, and migration of breast cancer cells. A putative binding site for microRNA-367 (miR-367) exists in the 3'UTR of
The anti-breast cancer drug tamoxifen has recently been shown to cause an increase in intracellular free-Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) in renal tubular cells, breast cells and bladder cells. Because tamoxifen is known to alter ovary function in human patients and in rats, the present study was
The ryanodine receptor (RyR) is a large, intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) channel that is associated with several accessory proteins and is an important component of a cell's ability to respond to changes in the environment. Three isoforms of the RyR exist and are well documented for skeletal and
BACKGROUND
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a process implicated in cancer metastasis that involves the conversion of epithelial cells to a more mesenchymal and invasive cell phenotype. In breast cancer cells EMT is associated with altered store-operated calcium influx and changes in
Muscle weakness and cachexia are significant paraneoplastic syndromes of many advanced cancers. Osteolytic bone metastases are common in advanced breast cancer and are a major contributor to decreased survival, performance, and quality of life for patients. Pathologic fracture caused by osteolytic
Breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) play a critical role in tumor recurrence and metastasis. Exposure of breast cancer cells to chemotherapy leads to an enrichment of BCSCs. Here, we find that chemotherapy induces the expression of glutathione S-transferase omega 1 (GSTO1), which is dependent on
The G protein-coupled receptor GPR30 binds 17beta-estradiol (E(2)) yet differs from classic estrogen receptors (ERalpha and ERbeta). GPR30 can mediate E(2)-induced nongenomic signaling, but its role in ERalpha-positive breast cancer remains unclear. Gene expression microarray data from five cohorts
Dysregulation of calcium homeostasis is a major mechanism of doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity. Treatment with DOX causes activation of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) ryanodine receptor (RYR) and rapid release of Ca2+ in the cytoplasm resulting in depression of myocardial function.
Research on developing molecular diagnostics for hereditary cancers resulted in establishing diagnostic services for familiar polyposis and non-polyposis patients (mutation determination of APC, MYH, STK11, SMAD4, MLH1, MSH2). In familiar testicular cancers the role of gr/gr gene on Y chromosome was
Class II antiarrhythmics or β-blockers are antisympathetic nervous system agents that act by blocking β-adrenoceptors. Despite their common clinical use, little is known about the effects of β-blockers on free intracellular calcium (Ca2+i), an important
Vitamin D (VD) deficiency affects individuals of different ages in many countries. VD deficiency may be related to several diseases, including cancer.This study aimed to review the relationship between VD deficiency and
