Mechanistic studies revealed that blocking TUBB3 suppressed the expression of PD-L1 through the EMT-related SNAI1 gene. Our results provide a rationale for a novel combination therapy consisting of the TUBB3 inhibition and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy for lung cancer.
Western blot analysis confirmed the elevated expression of TUBB3 in cells treated with cisplatin for 24 h, and also in cisplatin resistant HNSCC cell lines. This study delineates the early signaling events that enable HNSCC cells to counteract the cytotoxic effects of cisplatin and facilitate the development of resistance.
The expression levels of TUBB3 and RRM1 in NSCLC cells are potential predictive biomarkers, but not prognostic factors, of response to chemotherapy in patients with NSCLC receiving the Car/Pac regimen.
The findings suggest the importance of TUBB3 in tumor progression and its potential application as a biomarker for high-grade disease and the prognosis of UC. Moreover, combination with TUBB3 immunostaining might improve the diagnostic accuracy of urine cytology.
Aim: The study aims to analyze the effect of long-term incubation of ERα-positive MCF7 breast cancer cells with 4-hydroxytamoxifen (HT) on their sensitivity to tubulin polymerization inhibitor docetaxel. The expression of cyclin D1 decreased (2.8-fold) only in resistant cells after 4 nM docetaxel treatment, while this marker was unchanged in parental MCF7 breast cancer cells. Further development of taxane-based chemotherapy for hormone-resistant cancer looks highly promising, especially for cancers with low TUBB3 expression.

EmTUBB3 possibly plays a crucial role in tegument and flame cell integrity in E. multilocularis PSCs. Novel drugs targeting this specific beta-tubulin isotype in E. multilocularis are potential methods for disease control and deserve further attention.
An increase of the TUBB3 expression in the tumor and in the "normal" mucosa was revealed in muscle invasive bladder cancer compared to non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Therefore, in urothelial bladder cancer, the tumor-associated protein TUBB3 is a molecular marker of bladder mucosa involvement in the malignancy process and predicts the risk of tumor muscle invasion, which may influence indications for early cystectomy.
Class III β-tubulin might be a predictive factor for the response of GnP, but not a prognostic factor for OS, helping the selection of an optimized first-line chemotherapy regimen for unresectable PDAC.
Understanding the mechanisms that control TUBB3 expression, both in cancer, mature and developing tissues will help to unravel the basic biology of the protein, its role in cancer, and may ultimately lead to the development of new therapeutic approaches to target this protein. This review is devoted to the transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of TUBB3 in normal and cancerous tissue.
Moreover, overexpression of lncRNA ROR increased tumor growth by inhibiting PTEN in vivo. Taken together, the current study demonstrated that lncRNA ROR mediated TESC/ALDH1A1/TUBB3/PTEN axis, thereby facilitating the development of PTC.

TUBB3 (Tubulin beta 3 class III) • ALDH1A1 (Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1 Family Member A1)
IXA + BEV is a well-tolerated, effective combination for platinum/taxane-resistant ovarian cancer that extends PFS and likely OS relative to IXA monotherapy. Prior receipt of BEV should not preclude the use of IXA + BEV. TUBB3 is not a predictive biomarker.
TUBB3 immunostaining is useful for diagnosing oral SCC in scraping LBC, especially when samples consist of intermediate cells with little morphological change. Moreover, TUBB3 immunostaining could improve the diagnostic accuracy of oral scraping LBC by reducing false-negative.
Altogether, our findings suggest an astrocytogenic potential of luteolin and its possible therapeutic benefits in neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. However, further studies are required to identify the specific mechanism of action of luteolin.

Since no CYP2B6 mRNA expression was detected, the CAR receptor may not be involved in the TDBP-TAZTO mechanism of action. However, more research is needed in this field to elucidate this mechanism precisely.

TUBB3 (Tubulin beta 3 class III) • CYP1A1 (Cytochrome P450 Family 1 Subfamily A Member 1)
The exosomal TUBB3 mRNA expression level is associated with poor PSA-PFS of abiraterone in mCRPC patients. The detection of exosomal TUBB3 can be valuable in their management.
These results indicate that the combination of NPDP nanoparticles could reduce the expressions of TUBB3 and MAP4. This research may provide possible sources of new therapy for NPDP.
Furthermore, TUBB3 knockdown significantly decreased phosphorylation of Akt and mTOR in vitro and in vivo. TUBB3 can induce the development of gallbladder cancer by Akt/mTOR signal pathway and we point out a potential therapeutic target for gallbladder cancer treatment.
The results were further validated through data from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Our results suggest that high expression of TUBB3 in thyroid carcinoma could predict invasive potential and possibly be linked with epithelial-mesenchymal transition.

CDH1 (Cadherin 1) • TUBB3 (Tubulin beta 3 class III)
We found that human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) signaling regulates TUBB3 expression in both trastuzumab-sensitive and trastuzumab-resistant neoplastic cells...In addition, in vivo studies using a model of multiple brain metastasis (BM) showed improved survival with the combination of radiation + BET inhibitor (iBET-762) + VRB (75% long-term survivors, P < 0.05)...Overexpression of MZF-1 decreases TUBB3 expression and reduces BM in vivo, whereas its knockdown increases TUBB3 expression in breast cancer cells. In summary, this study demonstrates a regulatory mechanism of TUBB3 and provides support for an application of BET inhibition to sensitize breast cancer metastases to VRB-mediated therapy.
We analyzed GC samples of patients enrolled in the Intergroup Trial of Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Adenocarcinoma of the Stomach (ITACA-S), a randomized adjuvant study comparing 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin (5-FU/LV) and docetaxel-based sequential chemotherapy. The quantification of TUBB3 might be considered as a negative predictive biomarker of benefit from taxane-based therapy in GC. Studies are needed to evaluate its role in the neoadjuvant setting.
