Neuron-specific enolase promotes stem cell-like characteristics of small-cell lung cancer by downregulating NBL1 and activating the BMP2/Smad/ID1 pathway
29 Apr 2022
Abstract excerpt
Little is known about the biological functions of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) as a specific biomarker for small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Herein, we elucidate the effect and mechanism of NSE on SCLC stem cell-like characteristics. Upregulated NSE expression was observed in spheroid cells. The gain-of-function and loss-of-function approaches demonstrated that modulation of NSE positively regulated cell...
