Abstract:
F-box protein 17 (FBXO17) is associated with high-grade glioma and acted as a promotor of glioma development. This study investigated the effect and underlying pathway of FBXO17 on glioma. The Cancer Genome Atlas database was applied to analyze FBXO17 expression information in glioma. First, high FBXO17 expressions are associated with glioma and poor prognosis. Then, FBXO17 was upregulated in glioma cells. Meanwhile, knock-down of FBXO17 inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, but increased the cell apoptosis. Besides, knock-down of FBXO17 inhibited mitochondrial membrane potential and increased reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, knock-down of FBXO17 decreased level of adenosine triphosphate, glucose, lactate, GLUT1, HK2, PFKP, PKM2, and LDHA. In conclusion, FBXO17 was high expression in glioma, and FBXO17 regulates glioma by regulating glycolysis pathway, providing novel theoretical for the treatment of glioma.

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
