Cellular senescence

downin human cells1

1 study
  1. PDRG1 inhibits cellular senescence in human cells.

    “reveal an epigenetic mechanism by which PDRG1 cooperates with EZH2 to repress p21 and bypass senescence.”

CDKN1A transcription

downin human cells1

1 study
  1. PDRG1 decreases CDKN1A transcription in human cells.

    “Mechanistically, PDRG1 directly interacted with EZH2, increased H3K27me3 enrichment at the p21 promoter, and suppressed p21 transcription.”

upin human cells1

1 study
  1. PDRG1 increases H3K27me3 enrichment at the P21 promoter in human cells.

    “Mechanistically, PDRG1 directly interacted with EZH2, increased H3K27me3 enrichment at the p21 promoter, and suppressed p21 transcription.”

Tumor growth

upin animals1

1 study
  1. PDRG1 increases tumor growth.

    “Functionally, PDRG1 enhanced HCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, colony formation, and tumor growth in vivo.”

Patient survival

downin humans1

1 study
  1. PDRG1 is associated with patient survival in humans.

    “PDRG1 was significantly upregulated in HCC tumor tissues compared with adjacent non-tumor liver tissues and was associated with worse patient survival.”
