Tristetraprolin-mediated hexokinase 2 expression regulation contributes to glycolysis in cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hexokinase 2 (HK2) catalyzes the first step of glycolysis and is up-regulated in cancer cells. The mechanism has not been fully elucidated. Tristetraprolin (TTP) is an AU-rich element (ARE)-binding protein that inhibits the expression of ARE-containing genes by enhancing mRNA degradation. TTP

Xanthohumol inhibits colorectal cancer cells via downregulation of Hexokinases II-mediated glycolysis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Deregulation of glycolysis is a common phenomenon in human colorectal cancer (CRC). In the present study, we reported that Hexokinase 2 (HK2) is overexpressed in human CRC tissues and cell lines, knockout of HK2 inhibited cell proliferation, colony formation, and xenograft tumor growth. We

Curcumin inhibits aerobic glycolysis and induces mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis through hexokinase II in human colorectal cancer cells in vitro.

Curcumin, the major pigment of the dietary spice turmeric, has the potential for chemoprevention by promotion of apoptosis. Here, we investigated the molecular mechanisms of curcumin in glycolytic inhibition and apoptotic induction in human colorectal cancer HCT116 and HT29 cells. On the one hand,

Interleukin-22 promotes aerobic glycolysis associated with tumor progression via targeting hexokinase-2 in human colon cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Interleukin-22 has been explored extensively in human cancer, but its functions and underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. Here, we show that aberrant interleukin-22 expression facilitates aerobic glycolysis in colon cancer cells. Elevated interleukin-22 mRNA expression was observed and

Enzymes of glucose metabolism in cultured human gliomas: neoplasia is accompanied by altered hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase levels.

Only registered users can translate articles

The enzymes of glycolysis and selected enzymes of the pentose phosphate pathways were measured by fluorometric methods in extracts prepared from cultures of normal cortical human astrocytes and from cultures derived from low-grade (II) or high-grade (IV) gliomas. The hexokinase and

A variant of hexokinase isoenzymes detected in ascites tumor cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

In the hexokinase isoenzyme pattern on the cellulose acetate membrane electropherogram of the supernatant fraction of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells, a band was detected moving slower than of common Type I isoenzyme. This band was assumed to be due to the presence of a variant of the hexokinase

Colorectal tumor cells treated with 5-FU, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, and cetuximab exhibit changes in 18F-FDG incorporation corresponding to hexokinase activity and glucose transport.

Only registered users can translate articles

The purpose of this study was to determine therapy-induced changes in 18F-FDG incorporation at the colorectal tumor cell level in response to conventional and novel chemotherapy agents and examine how these changes relate to factors involved in 18F-FDG incorporation. METHODS SW620 cells were treated

A precision therapeutic strategy for hexokinase 1-null, hexokinase 2-positive cancers.

Only registered users can translate articles

UNASSIGNED Precision medicine therapies require identification of unique molecular cancer characteristics. Hexokinase (HK) activity has been proposed as a therapeutic target; however, different hexokinase isoforms have not been well characterized as alternative targets. While HK2 is highly expressed

PI3K/Akt signaling mediated Hexokinase-2 expression inhibits cell apoptosis and promotes tumor growth in pediatric osteosarcoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

Accumulating evidence has shown that PI3K/Akt pathway is frequently hyperactivated in osteosarcoma (OS) and contributes to tumor initiation and progression. Altered phenotype of glucose metabolism is a key hallmark of cancer cells including OS. However, the relationship between PI3K/Akt pathway and

Hexokinase 2 is targetable for HK1 negative, HK2 positive tumors from a wide variety of tissues of origin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Although absent in most adult tissues, hexokinase 2 (HK2) is expressed in a majority of tumors and contributes to increased glucose consumption and to in vivo tumor 18F-FDG PET signaling. Methods: Both HK2 knockdown and knockout approaches were used to investigate the role of HK2 in cancer cell

PHLPP regulates hexokinase 2-dependent glucose metabolism in colon cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Increased glucose metabolism is considered as one of the most important metabolic alterations adapted by cancer cells in order to generate energy as well as high levels of glycolytic intermediates to support rapid proliferation. PH domain leucine-rich repeat protein phosphatase (PHLPP) belongs to a

Expression of glucose transporter-1, hexokinase-II, proliferating cell nuclear antigen and survival of patients with pancreatic cancer.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has been shown to be useful in diagnosis and staging of pancreatic cancer. However, the prognostic value of FDG-PET remains controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate relations between the factors suggested to

By blocking hexokinase-2 phosphorylation, limonin suppresses tumor glycolysis and induces cell apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

UNASSIGNED The purpose of present study was to investigate the effect of limonin on tumor glycolysis and the underlying mechanisms in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). UNASSIGNED Cell proliferation and colony formation assays were performed to evaluate the potency of limonin against HCC cells in

Curcumin suppresses 4-hydroxytamoxifen resistance in breast cancer cells by targeting SLUG/Hexokinase 2 pathway.

Only registered users can translate articles

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the hardest breast cancer subtype to treat due to lacking therapeutic target and treatment options. In this study, we found that SLUG expression was much higher in TNBC MDA-MB-231 cells than estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) positive breast cancer MCF7 cells.

INPP4B-mediated tumor resistance is associated with modulation of glucose metabolism via hexokinase 2 regulation in laryngeal cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Inositol polyphosphate 4-phosphatase type II (INPP4B) was recently identified as a tumor resistance factor in laryngeal cancer cells. Herein, we show that INPP4B-mediated resistance is associated with increased glycolytic phenotype. INPP4B expression was induced by hypoxia and irradiation.
