YBX1 overexpression

These effects were attenuated by PLRG1 knockdown. Our findings indicate that YBX1 drives EMT in HCC by upregulating PLRG1, offering novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying HCC progression.

YBX1 is upregulated in ICC and promotes stemness and cisplatin insensitivity via the AKT/β-catenin axis. Our study describes a novel potential therapeutic target for improving ICC prognosis.

Moreover, YBX1 activated the mTORC1 signaling pathway by stabilizing SMOX mRNA. The study reveals that YBX1 promotes ESCC development by stabilizing SMOX mRNA in an m5C-dependent manner, thus providing a valuable therapeutic target for ESCC.

In female lung cancer patients, better survival and lower YBX1 expression were identified. The clinical importance of YBX1 expression in cancer ought to be evaluated in a sex-specific manner, especially in lung cancer.

YBX1 plays crucial oncogenic roles in LIHC and is closely associated with the immune defense system. YBX1 inhibition may serve as a potential treatment for LIHC.

In addition, YBX1 could bind to RAF1 which is the key molecule in the MAPK signaling pathway, and overexpression of piR-YBX1 inhibited the p-MEK and p-ERK1/2, which can be reverted by YBX1. In conclusion, our findings discovered that the piR-YBX1/YBX1/MAPK axis suppresses the proliferation and metastasis of TNBC and therefore piR-YBX1 has the potential to be an effective therapeutic agent for breast cancer.

Furthermore, high YBX1 expression was correlated with poor prognosis in breast and ovarian cancers. This study demonstrated that SATII RNA loading into sEVs is regulated via YBX1 and that YBX1 is a promising target in novel cancer therapy.

Our study has identified a novel YBX1/SBF2-AS1/PI3K/AKT/mTOR regulatory axis which may serve as a potential target to improve the effectiveness and efficacy of TAM treatment in BC.

High-risk score mechanisms included spliceosome, RNA degradation, and DNA replication, among others, and high-risk was closely related to stromal score, CD4 memory resting T cells, M0 macrophages, M1 macrophages, resting mast cells, CD4 memory activated T cells, and follicular helper T cells. In conclusion, the cluster subgroup and risk model of m6A/m5C/m1A regulated genes were associated with the poor prognosis and immune microenvironment in HCC and are expected to be the new tools for assessing the prognosis of HCC patients.

We also revealed that CBX3 enhanced pancreatic cancer progression, likely by inhibiting the expression of SMAD specific E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 2 (SMURF2) and promoting the activation of TGF-β signaling. In summary, the YBX1/CBX3/SMURF2 signaling axis may be a promising therapeutic target in patients with smoking-related pancreatic cancer.
