p53 Promotes chemoresponsiveness by regulating hexokinase II gene transcription and metabolic reprogramming in epithelial ovarian cancer
4 Sept 2019
Abstract excerpt
Metabolic reprogramming (including the Warburg effect) is a hallmark of cancer, yet the association between the altered metabolism and chemoresistance remains elusive. Hexokinase II (HKII) is a key metabolic enzyme and is upregulated in multiple cancers. In this study, we examined the impact of targeting metabolism via silencing of HKII on chemoresistance in ovarian cancer (OVCA). In addition, the regulatory...
