Sentenece the gene occurs

25328137In a screen for transcription factors regulating the expression of the polycomb protein CBX7, we identified NR2E1 as one of its more prominent regulators
25328137NR2E1 binds at the CBX7 promoter, inducing its expression
25328137Notably CBX7 represses NR2E1 as part of a regulatory loop
25328137We also confirmed that NR2E1 regulates CBX7 and restrains senescence in NSCs
25328137Finally, we observed that the expression of NR2E1 directly correlates with that of CBX7 in human glioblastoma multiforme
24217920We show that SA-miRNAs-26b, 181a, 210 and 424 function in concert to directly repress expression of Polycomb group (PcG) proteins CBX7, embryonic ectoderm development (EED), enhancer of zeste homologue 2 (EZH2) and suppressor of zeste 12 homologue (Suz12), thereby activating p16
20723236Oncogenic role of the chromobox protein CBX7 in gastric cancer
20723236BACKGROUND: Chromobox 7 (CBX7) is a Polycomb family protein that extends the lifespan of normal human cells via downregulating the expression of INK4a/ARF tumor suppressor locus
20723236It was found that CBX7 expression was upregulated in lymphoma, but downregulated in some other human malignancies
20723236The role of CBX7 in most types of cancer is still not clear
20723236The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of CBX7 in gastric cancer
20723236METHODS: The expression of CBX7 and its potential target protein p16(INK4a) in gastric cancer cell lines and gastric tumors was assayed by Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry(IHC)
20723236The correlations between CBX7 expression and p16(INK4a), clinicopathological characteristics, and prognosis were analyzed
20723236Gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 was transfected with CBX7 siRNA expressing plasmids, and the expression of various proteins was analyzed by Western blot analysis
20723236Cellular senescence, anchorage independent growth, and cell migration assays were performed to determine the functional role of CBX7 in gastric cancer cells
20723236RESULTS: CBX7 was found to be overexpressed in gastric cancer cell lines and gastric tumors
20723236Overexpression of CBX7 in gastric cancer tissues correlated with patients' age, clinical stage and lymph node metastasis
20723236Knockdown of CBX7 expression in gastric cancer cells led to increased cellular senescence, decreased cellular proliferation and migration ability, accompanied by upregulation of p16(INK4a)
20723236CONCLUSIONS: CBX7 acts as an oncogene in the carcinogenesis and progression of gastric cancer, and it may regulate tumorigenesis, cell migration and cancer metastasis partially via p16(INK4a) regulatory pathway
19636380Using tandem affinity purification, we find that CBX7 and CBX8, two Polycomb (Pc) homologs that repress INK4a, both participate in PRC1-like complexes with at least two Posterior sex combs (Psc) proteins, MEL18 and BMI1
19636380In primary human fibroblasts, CBX7, CBX8, MEL18 and BMI1 are present at the INK4a locus and shRNA-mediated knockdown of any one of these components results in de-repression of INK4a and proliferative arrest
19636380Sequential chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) reveals that CBX7 and CBX8 bind simultaneously to the same region of chromatin and knockdown of one of the Pc or Psc proteins results in release of the other, suggesting that the binding of PRC1 complexes is interdependent
