MDM2 Cancer Research Results

MDM2, Double Minute 2 homolog: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type: oncoprotein
Oncoprotein MDM2, a major ubiquitin E3 ligase of tumor suppressor p53; overexpression of MDM2 in human cancers is associated with a poor prognosis.
- A gene that encodes a protein involved in the regulation of the p53 tumor suppressor. The p53 protein plays a crucial role in controlling cell cycle progression, DNA repair, and apoptosis (programmed cell death). MDM2 functions primarily as an E3 ubiquitin ligase, which means it tags p53 for degradation, thereby regulating its levels in the cell.
-MDM2 is often overexpressed in various tumors, leading to the inhibition of p53 activity. This can result in uncontrolled cell proliferation, evasion of apoptosis, and increased genomic instability, all of which contribute to tumorigenesis.

3238- EGCG,    Green tea catechin, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG): mechanisms, perspectives and clinical applications
- Review, Var, NA
Telomerase↓, EGCG stimulates telomere fragmentation through inhibiting telomerase activity.
DNMTs↓, EGCG reduced DNMTs,

angioG↓, EGCG inhibits angiogenesis by enhancing FOXO transcriptional activity

4838- Uro,    The Therapeutic Potential of Urolithin A for Cancer Treatment and Prevention
- Review, Var, NA
BioAv↑, Urolithin A is better absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract than its parent substances.

mTOR↓, Urolithin A can downregulate several oncogenes such as mTOR and Kirsten-rat sarcoma viral oncogenehomolog (KRAS) and upregulate tumor suppressor genes such as p53
p‑Akt↓, At molecular level urolithin A dose-dependently decreased phosphorylation of AKT
selectivity↑, At the same time, it isimportant to note that urolithin A has minimal impact on normal pancreatic epithelial cells such as humanpancreatic epithelial nestin-expressing cells (HPNE) and HPNE-KRAS
EMT↓, Urolithin A (10 mcM) inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in lung cancer cells

4844- Uro,    Urolithin A Inhibits Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition in Lung Cancer Cells via P53-Mdm2-Snail Pathway
- in-vitro, Lung, A549 - in-vitro, Lung, H460
TumCMig↓, exposure to urolithin A decreased cell migratory and invasive capacity
TumCI↓,
EMT↓, urolithin A inhibits lung cancer cell EMT by decreasing Snail protein expression and activity.
Snail↓, urolithin A disrupts the interaction of p53 and mdm2 which leads Snail ubiquitination and degradation.
MDM2↑, Urolithin A Upregulates mdm2 by Inhibiting the Interaction of p53 and mdm2
P53↑, Significantly, urolithin A increased endogenous p53 levels in a dose-dependent manner in p53-wild-type A549 and H460 cells
E-cadherin↑, urolithin A dose-dependently increased epithelial marker E-cadherin and decreased mesenchymal markers N-cadherin and Vimentin.
