Abstract 5171: Tfap2b overexpression contributes to tumor growth & progression of thyroid cancer through AKT&VEGF/PEDF signaling pathway
Cancer Research(2018)
Abstract
TFAP2 is a family of transcription factors implicated in many aspects of development.TFAP2B is a member of the AP2 transcription factor family, which orchestrates a variety of cell processes. However, the roles of TFAP2B in regulating thyroid carcinogenesis remain largely unknown. Here, we investigated the regulatory effects of TFAP2B on thyroid cancer growth & identified the underlying mechanisms of actions in thyroid cancer cells.We examined the expression of TFAP2B in thyroid cancer cell lines & tumor tissues. We also analyzed the TNM staging of TFAP2B in thyroid cancer. Then we investigated the molecular mechanisms by which TFAP2B knockdown or overexpression regulated thyroid cancer cell growth, angiogenesis & apoptosis, & further confirmed the role of TFAP2B in tumor growth in a thyroid cancerxenograft mouse model.TFAP2B was expressed in thyroid cancer lines t 2018 Apr 14-18; Chicago, IL.
