Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

The SP gene family, including SP140, is linked to glioma progression. A SP140 nomogram predicts survival, and its inhibitor suppresses glioma growth via the TRIM22/PI3K/AKT pathway.

Area Of Science

  • Oncology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics

Background

  • The SP gene family (SP100, SP110, SP140, SP140L) is implicated in various cancers.
  • The clinical role of SP genes in glioma remains unclear.

Purpose Of The Study

  • To investigate the expression and prognostic significance of SP family members in glioma.
  • To develop and validate a SP140-based predictive model for glioma patient survival.
  • To explore the therapeutic potential of SP140 inhibition in glioma.

Main Methods

  • Analysis of SP gene expression and survival data in TCGA and CGGA datasets.
  • Development and validation of a SP140-based nomogram using TCGA and CGGA data.
  • In vitro studies using glioma cells to assess the effects of a SP140 inhibitor (GSK761) on cell behavior and signaling pathways.

Main Results

  • SP family members are upregulated in gliomas and associated with poor prognosis.
  • SP140 is an independent prognostic factor, and the SP140 nomogram accurately predicts survival.
  • SP140 inhibition suppressed glioma proliferation, migration, and invasion by downregulating TRIM22 and the PI3K/AKT pathway.

Conclusions

  • A SP140-based nomogram is a valuable tool for predicting glioma patient survival.
  • SP140 inhibition offers a potential therapeutic strategy for glioma by targeting the TRIM22/PI3K/AKT pathway.

PI3K/mTOR/AKT Signaling Pathway 01:22

3.6K

The mammalian target of rapamycin  (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates growth, proliferation, and cell survival in response to hormones, growth factors, or nutrient availability. This kinase exists in two structurally and functionally distinct forms: mTOR complex 1  (mTORC1) and mTOR complex 2  (mTORC2). The first form (mTORC1) is composed of a rapamycin-sensitive Raptor and proline-rich Akt substrate, PRAS40. In contrast,  mTORC2 consists of a...

3.8K

The mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR protein was discovered in 1994 due to its direct interaction with rapamycin. The protein gets its name from a yeast homolog called TOR. The mTOR protein complex in mammalian cells plays a major role in balancing anabolic processes such as the synthesis of proteins, lipids, and nucleotides and catabolic processes, such as autophagy in response to environmental cues, such as availability of nutrients and growth factors.

Abnormal Proliferation 02:23

4.5K

Under normal conditions, most adult cells remain in a non-proliferative state unless stimulated by internal or external factors to replace lost cells. Abnormal cell proliferation is a condition in which the cell's growth exceeds and is uncoordinated with normal cells. In such situations, cell division persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli, leading to persistent tumors. The tumor arises from the damaged cells that replicate to pass the damage to the...

The JAK-STAT Signaling Pathway 01:20

8.9K

Several cytokine receptors have tightly bound Janus kinase or JAK proteins attached at their cytosolic tail. Small signaling molecules such as cytokines, growth hormones, or prolactins bind to the cytokine receptors and initiate their dimerization. The dimerization brings the cytosolic JAKs together that trans-phosphorylate and activates each other. The activated JAKs now phosphorylate cytosolic tails of the cytokine receptors, which serve as binding sites for adaptor proteins such as  SH2...
