Comment to: "Spontaneous transformation of adult mesenchymal stem cells from cynomolgus macaques in vitro" by Z. Ren et al. Exp. Cell Res. 317 (2011) 2950-2957: spontaneous transformation of mesenchymal stem cells in culture: facts or fiction?

abstract：:Alternative splicing is an important mechanism that can disrupt cell cycle control resulting in tumorigenesis. Although many alterations of Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGFβ) signaling are reported in cancers, the role of splice aberrations in destabilizing this signaling is the least understood mechanism. In this...

abstract：:Lysine demethylase 5B (KDM5B) is up-regulated in many cancers, including breast cancer. However, the underlying metabolic mechanisms of KDM5B on breast cancer progression are poorly understood. Here, we showed that KDM5B expression positively correlates with metastasis in breast cancer. Cell functional analyses were d...
