H3K9 histone methyltransferase G9a promotes lung cancer invasion and metastasis by silencing the cell adhesion molecule Ep-CAM

…, YM Jeng, TY Cheng, TC Lai, JS Chang, YH Jan… - Cancer research, 2010 - AACR
G9a is a mammalian histone methyltransferase that contributes to the epigenetic silencing of
tumor suppressor genes. Emerging evidence suggests that G9a is required to maintain the …

Fucosyltransferase 8 as a functional regulator of nonsmall cell lung cancer

CY Chen, YH Jan, YH Juan, CJ Yang… - Proceedings of the …, 2013 - National Acad Sciences
The up-regulation of fucosyltransferase 8 (FUT8), the only enzyme catalyzing α1,6-fucosylation
in mammals, has been observed in several malignant cancers including liver, ovarian, …

[HTML][HTML] Hypoxia-responsive miRNAs target argonaute 1 to promote angiogenesis

Z Chen, TC Lai, YH Jan, FM Lin… - The Journal of …, 2013 - Am Soc Clin Investig
Despite a general repression of translation under hypoxia, cells selectively upregulate a set
of hypoxia-inducible genes. Results from deep sequencing revealed that Let-7 and miR-103/…

[HTML][HTML] The H3K9 methyltransferase G9a is a marker of aggressive ovarian cancer that promotes peritoneal metastasis

…, LH Wei, CK Chen, CH Ko, YM Jeng, PL Sung, YH Jan… - Molecular cancer, 2014 - Springer
Background Ovarian cancer (OCa) peritoneal metastasis is the leading cause of cancer–related
deaths in women with limited therapeutic options available for treating it and poor …

Oxidants and antioxidants in sulfur mustard–induced injury

JD Laskin, AT Black, YH Jan, PJ Sinko… - Annals of the New …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Sulfur mustard (SM) is a chemical weapon that targets the skin, eyes, and lung. It was first
employed during World War I and it remains a significant military and civilian threat. As a …

[HTML][HTML] Periostin in tumor microenvironment is associated with poor prognosis and platinum resistance in epithelial ovarian carcinoma

PL Sung, YH Jan, SC Lin, CC Huang, H Lin, KC Wen… - Oncotarget, 2016 - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
The interplay between tumor microenvironment and cancer that causes chemoresistance
remains unclear. By analyzing public available microarray datasets, we identified that periostin …

Adenylate kinase-4 is a marker of poor clinical outcomes that promotes metastasis of lung cancer by downregulating the transcription factor ATF3

YH Jan, HY Tsai, CJ Yang, MS Huang, YF Yang… - Cancer research, 2012 - AACR
Biomarkers predicting metastatic capacity might assist the development of better therapeutic
strategies for aggressive cancers such as lung cancer. In this study, we show that adenylate …

[HTML][HTML] Adenylate kinase 4 modulates oxidative stress and stabilizes HIF-1α to drive lung adenocarcinoma metastasis

YH Jan, TC Lai, CJ Yang, YF Lin, MS Huang… - Journal of Hematology & …, 2019 - Springer
Background Adenylate kinase 4 (AK4) has been identified as a biomarker of metastasis in
lung cancer. However, the impacts of AK4 on metabolic genes and its translational value for …

Acetaminophen reactive intermediates target hepatic thioredoxin reductase

YH Jan, DE Heck, AC Dragomir… - Chemical research in …, 2014 - ACS Publications
Acetaminophen (APAP) is metabolized in the liver to N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI),
an electrophilic metabolite known to bind liver proteins resulting in hepatotoxicity. …

Squalene synthase induces tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 enrichment in lipid rafts to promote lung cancer metastasis

YF Yang, YH Jan, YP Liu, CJ Yang, CY Su… - American journal of …, 2014 - atsjournals.org
Rationale: Metabolic alterations contribute to cancer development and progression. However,
the molecular mechanisms relating metabolism to cancer metastasis remain largely …
