CUL4A overexpression

Taken together, our study underscores CUL4A as a cervical cancer oncogene and illustrates its potential as a prognosis indicator. Our investigation provides a novel avenue in improving current anti-cervical cancer therapy and overcoming the bottle-neck of Cisplatin resistance.

We indicated a potential role of CENPK in promoting tumor proliferation, and it may be a novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for CRC.

As CUL4A needs to be activated by neddylation to facilitate the degradation of several proteins including PCNA, we propose a novel explanation for the synergism between cytarabine and the neddylation inhibitor pevonedistat by inhibition of translesion synthesis. In keeping with this, in AML patients treated with cytarabine, we found high expression of CUL4A and TP73 to be associated with poor prognosis.

In addition, its knockdown likewise reversed the facilitating impact of CUL4A expression on tumor growth and declined the expression levels of proliferation-, migration-, and NF-κB signaling-related protein in the tumor. Together, this paper indicated that CUL4A promoted the proliferative, invasive, and migratory aptitude of NPC cells as well as tumor growth by promoting PRMT5 to activate NF-κB signaling.

CUL4A promotes autophagy, and exhibits significantly higher autophagic flux which affects the proliferation of iCCA cells; these effects correlated with advance tumor stage and poor prognosis. Thus, targeting autophagy may be potentially therapeutic in iCCA.

In vivo experiments confirmed the role of NEAT1 in CRC. On the whole, the present study demonstrates that lncRNA NEAT1 facilitates the progression of CRC via the KDM5A/Cul4A/Wnt axis.

CUL4A is highly expressed in CC and promotes the proliferation and inhibits the apoptosis of CC cells by regulating the Hippo pathway.

CUL4A promotes the invasion of CC cells through the NF-κB signaling pathway.
