General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction enzyme NNMT plays an important role in PANC-1 cell proliferation, metastatic potential and survival under metabolic stress. Enzyme silencing markedly reduces cell proliferation, whereas enzyme overexpression promotes cell growth moderately. Knockdown of NNMT also significantly suppresses the migration and invasion capacities of pancreatic cancer PANC-1 cells. Enzyme NNMT upregulation enhances cell migration and invasion capacities. In addition, NNMT knockdown cells are much less resistant to glucose deprivation and rapamycin as well as glycolytic inhibitor 2-deoxyglucose whereas NNMT-overexpressing cells show opposite effects although the effects are not so striking Homo sapiens
