METABOLIC CHARACTERIZATION OF AGGRESSIVE BREAST CANCER CELLS EXHIBITING INVASIVE PHENOTYPE: IMPACT OF NON-CYTOTOXIC DOSES OF 2-DG ON DIMINISHING INVASIVENESS

Metabolic characterization of aggressive breast cancer cells exhibiting invasive phenotype: impact of non-cytotoxic doses of 2-DG on diminishing invasiveness

Abstract Background Metabolic reprogramming is being recognized as a fundamental hallmark of cancer, and efforts to identify drugs that can target cancer metabolism are underway.In this study, we used human breast cancer (BC) cell lines and established their invading phenotype (INV) collected from transwell inserts to compare metabolome differences

MiR-103a-3p Promotes Zika Virus Replication by Targeting OTU Deubiquitinase 4 to Activate p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Signaling Pathway

BackgroundMicroRNAs (miRNAs) play critical roles in regulating virus infection and replication.However, the mechanism by which miRNA regulates Zika virus (ZIKV) replication remains elusive.We aim to explore how the differentially expressed miR-103a-3p regulates ZIKV replication and to clarify the underlying molecular mechanism.MethodsSmall RNA sequ
