MSI1 (Musashi RNA Binding Protein 1)

Dysregulation of these RBPs has been linked to aberrant Wnt signaling, contributing to various pathological conditions such as cancers or developmental disorders. This review explores the emerging landscape of RBPs in the regulation of canonical Wnt signaling, highlighting their molecular mechanism, functional implications, and potential as therapeutic targets in Wnt-driven disease.

Finally, cell viability assays and clonogenic assessments were used to assess resistance to radiation, vincristine, and doxorubicin chemotherapy. We propose that MSI2, a prognostic marker, may modulate the susceptibility of DLBCL towards genotoxic therapy. Suppressing MSI2 may hold promise to sensitize DLBCL to DNA-targeted treatment.

Furthermore, interference of MSI1 reduced PCa tumor growth by decreasing ABHD2 expression in vivo. MSI1 facilitated PCa cell proliferation, migration and glycolysis via activating ABHD2 transcription, providing a novel target for PCa treatment.

NGN2 induced TCs indicative of cell phenotype changes towards neural crest cells, neural stem cells, mature neurons, as well as radial glia, astrocytes, and oligodendrocyte precursors and their mature forms. MSI1 mainly induced a switch towards early stem-like cells, such as radial glia.

The present study unveils the pivotal role of an AS event in ALDOA, under the regulation of MSI1, in driving TAM resistance in breast cancer. Therefore, this study provides a promising therapeutic avenue targeting ALDOA to combat TAM resistance.

SOX10, S-100, HMB45, Melan A, PRAME and BRAF V600E were all negative in 30 control samples of serosal cavity effusion. By observing the morphology of tumor cells, immunocytochemical test of several combination markers, especially the expression of SOX10, BRAF V600E and PRAME, can help to improve the positive diagnosis rate of melanoma in serous cavity effusion.

Furthermore, MSI1 knockdown-induced D2 expression slowed down cell proliferation by 56% in primary cultures of mouse cortical astrocytes, establishing the functionality of the MSI1-D2-T3 pathway. In summary, Dio2 mRNA is a target of MSI1 and the MSI1-D2-T3 pathway is a novel regulatory mechanism of astrocyte proliferation with the potential to regulate the pathogenesis of human glioblastoma.

In conclusion, elevated free T3 levels in advanced NSCLC patients correlate with prolonged progression-free survival under cisplatin chemotherapy. Cellular experiments reveal that thyroid hormones enhance lung cancer cell sensitivity to cisplatin by reversing the Warburg effect, providing a mechanistic basis for improved therapeutic outcomes.

Moreover, miR-769-5p overexpression enhanced the inhibitory effects of resveratrol on tumor growth in vivo. Resveratrol inhibited colorectal cancer cell tumor properties by activating the miR-769-5p/MSI1 pathway.

Additionally, in vitro experiment demonstrated that the removal of H3K9ac from the common-gained gene MSI1 significantly downregulated its transcription, resulting in deficiencies in ESCC cell proliferation and migration. Together, our findings revealed the distinct characteristics of H3K9ac in esophageal squamous cell carcinogenesis and metastasis, and highlighted the potential therapeutic avenue for intervening ESCC through epigenetic modulation via H3K9ac.

This study explains a vital relationship between GBM radioresistance and a novel oncogenic post-translational modification on MSI1 S347. IR-induced DNA damage triggers DNA-PKcs activation that subsequently phosphorylates MSI1-S347, enhancing GBM tumorigenicity via let-7 pathway. Further studies on the potential regulators, either inhibiting DNA-PKcs or antagonizing agents, may provide GBM patients with an optimistic outcome.

Since differential tumor cell phenotype along with activated β-catenin may very well affect malignant progression, our findings are relevant to understanding the higher carcinogenic risk of high-LET radiation. This study has implications for the assessment of GI-cancer risk among astronauts, as well as for the estimation of secondary cancer risk among patients receiving hadron therapy, considering that our results indicate increased stemness properties after radiation.
