NOTCH3 overexpression

In support, we also detected metabolic changes as potential drivers of leukemic cell survival. Our studies could shed light on T-cell/stroma crosstalk to human leukemic cells and propose our culture system to test pharmacological treatment for T-ALL.

Clinically, high expression of NOTCH3, miR-223 or low expression of ZEB1 were related to good prognosis of breast cancer patients. The current study reports a novel NOTCH3/miR-223/ZEB1 axis, which can inhibit the proliferation and invasion of breast cancer cells, and may serve as a potential biomarker for the prognosis of breast cancer.

Our findings highlight that DAB2 has a direct tumor suppressive role on ovarian cancer cells. The pro-tumorigenic role of DAB2 may be mediated by tumour associated macrophages and requires further investigation.

NOTCH pathway genes appear to play an important role in the progression of OC by regulating immune cells, endocrine resistance, Th1 and Th2 cell differentiation, and oxidative phosphorylation. JAG2 and NOTCH1 are potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for the treatment of OC.

Conclusion Complete clinical data, a comprehensive pathohistological report, estimation of HIF1 alpha, VEGFR1, NOTCH3 expression and number of CD34 positive micro-vessels on a 2mm biopsy incorporated in tissue microarray could select pT1 patients that require intensive follow-up and a trimodal approach to treatment. Understanding the role of molecular pathways in chemio/radiotherapy response could bring new possibilities for better controlling and personalized, molecular treatment of bladder cancer.

Genetic or pharmacological perturbation of NOTCH3 conferred chemosensitivity of NPC in vitro and overexpression of NOTCH3 enhanced chemoresistance of NPC in vivo. Together, these data indicated that genome-wide enhancer reprogramming activates NOTCH3 to confer chemoresistance of NPC, suggesting that targeting NOTCH3 may provide a potential therapeutic strategy to effectively treat advanced chemoresistant NPC.

The interaction of Notch3 receptor and DLL4 ligand accelerates oncogenesis, progression, and poor prognosis of breast cancer patients. Notch3 protein may serve as one of biomarker to independently predict prognosis of patients.

Finally, high expression of NOTCH3 is associated with prolonged survival in patients with luminal breast cancer. These results highlight an unexpected tumor-suppressive function for Notch3 in the parous mammary gland through restriction of PI-MEC expansion.

In summary, our preliminary results suggested that Notch3 might inhibit EMT by trans-activating GSK3β in breast cancer cells. The suppression of Notch3 expression may contribute to EMT by transcriptionally downregulating GSK3β in breast cancer.

Moreover, TAp73 loss-of-expression is a frequent event in human breast cancer tumors and cell lines. Together, our results significantly advance our understanding of the tumor suppressive functions of CBFB and reveal a mechanism underlying the communication between the two tumor suppressors CBFB and p53.

MiRNA-206 is downregulated in osteosarcoma. Overexpression of miRNA-206 accelerates osteosarcoma cells to proliferate and metastasize by targeting Notch3, thus accelerating the malignant progression of osteosarcoma.
