Our results demonstrated upregulation of c-FLIP in CRC, which was downregulated in SW48 cells after the transfection of miR-150-504-519d, suggesting that manipulation of miR-150-504-519d expression might be a novel approach for the treatment of colorectal cancer.
In conclusion, Nogo-B was shown to play an important negative role in apoptotic signaling through its interaction with c-FLIP in colorectal cancer cells, and may thus become a novel therapeutic target for colorectal cancer.
Our findings indicate that c-MET/STAT3-dependent upregulation of c-FLIPL expression is an important escape mechanism following MEKi treatment in BRAFMT colorectal cancer.
Furthermore, silencing of SART1 led to a downregulation of the caspase-8 inhibitor, c-FLIP, which we have previously shown is a key determinant of drug resistance in colorectal cancer.
