Abstract
Background/aim: This study examined the role of GNAO1 as a potential tumor suppressor gene in colorectal cancer (CRC).
Materials and methods: RNA-seq data analysis revealed a significant GNAO1 down-regulation in colon cancer tissues compared to normal colon tissues.
Results: GNAO1 over-expression in CRC cell lines inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and tumor formation both in vitro and in vivo. This study suggests that GNAO1 exerts its tumor-suppressive effects by inhibiting the mTOR/S6K signaling pathway. The observed correlation between GNAO1 expression and cancer progression highlights its potential as a prognostic marker and therapeutic target in CRC.
Conclusion: This study provides a foundation for further exploration of the molecular mechanisms by which GNAO1 influences CRC pathogenesis, with significant implications for its application in clinical settings.
期刊介绍:
ANTICANCER RESEARCH is an independent international peer-reviewed journal devoted to the rapid publication of high quality original articles and reviews on all aspects of experimental and clinical oncology. Prompt evaluation of all submitted articles in confidence and rapid publication within 1-2 months of acceptance are guaranteed.
ANTICANCER RESEARCH was established in 1981 and is published monthly (bimonthly until the end of 2008). Each annual volume contains twelve issues and index. Each issue may be divided into three parts (A: Reviews, B: Experimental studies, and C: Clinical and Epidemiological studies).
Special issues, presenting the proceedings of meetings or groups of papers on topics of significant progress, will also be included in each volume. There is no limitation to the number of pages per issue.
