AIF Cancer Research Results

AIF, Apoptosis-Inducing Factor: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
AIF is a mitochondrial oxidoreductase that contributes to cell death programmes and participates in the assembly of the respiratory chain.
Nuclear translocation of AIF occurs during cell death and has been associated with human disorders. Expression Levels:
AIF is often found to be overexpressed in several types of cancers, including breast, lung, and colorectal cancers.
The expression of AIF can vary significantly between different tumor types and even among patients with the same type of cancer.
Survival Rates:
High levels of AIF expression have been associated with poor prognosis in certain cancers, indicating a potential role in tumor aggressiveness and metastasis.
Conversely, low AIF expression may correlate with better survival outcomes in some contexts.
Overexpression: In many cancers, AIF is overexpressed, which is often associated with poor prognosis, increased tumor aggressiveness, and resistance to therapy.

Prostate Cancer: Alterations in genes such as ERG, SPOP, MYC, androgen receptor (AR), and CHD1, drive PCa progression.
TP53 is the most commonly mutated gene in human cancer.
HH↑, GLI-1↑, SHH↑ P53↓
The loss of p53 and/or other tumor suppressor genes, reduced capacity for DNA repair, the dysfunction of telomerase activity, and changes in the pathways that govern the growth of cells also mediate the progression of Pca.
It has been well documented that Ca2+ influx and MDR1 upregulation are highly associated with GEM metabolism in human pancreatic carcinoma.
Increased Growth factor IGF-1/IGF-1R axis activation mediated by both PI3K/Akt or RAF/MEK/ERK system and AR expression remains important in the development and progression of prostate cancer.
It has been demonstrated that prostate cancer cells are relatively sensitive to heat stress.
Long non-coding RNA MALAT1 has been reported as an oncogenic target in multiple types of cancers, including PC.
