CRKL overexpression

Activation of the CRKL/β-catenin/VEGFα and CXCL1 axis is a critical obstacle to successful anti-PD-1 therapy. Therefore, CRKL inhibitors combined with anti-PD-1 may be developed for the treatment of HCC.

Also, circ_0008898 knockdown reduced OSCC tumor growth by regulating miR-545-3p/CRKL. In conclusion, propofol suppressed OSCC progression, which was achieved through regulating the circ_0008898/miR-545-3p/CRKL axis.

Furthermore, our study indicates that migration of U-118MG cells depends entirely on Crk and CrkL. Thus, impedance-based, real-time measurement of tumor cell migration represents a robust assay for monitoring Crk and CrkL activities.

We demonstrate CRKL facilitates HCC malignancy via enhancing glucose uptake, lactate production and glycogen synthesis through PI3K/Akt pathway. It provides interesting fundamental clues to CRKL-related carcinogenesis through glucose metabolism and offers novel therapeutic strategies for hepatocarcinoma.

Collectively, our data illustrates that miR-124-3p acts as an important tumor-suppressive miRNA to suppress HCC carcinogenesis through targeting CRKL. The miR-124-3p-CRKL axial regulated pathway may offer valuable indications for cancer research, diagnosis, and treatment.
