Abstract excerpt
Human AlkB homolog 3 (ALKBH3) is overexpressed in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) and its high expression is significantly correlated with poor prognosis. While ALKBH3 knockdown induces apoptosis in NSCLC cells, the underlying anti-apoptotic mechanisms of ALKBH3 in NSCLC cells remain unclear. Here we show that ALKBH3 knockdown induces cell cycle arrest or apoptosis depending on the TP53 gene status in NSCLC...
