drug target | given the dual functions of PRMT1 (promotion of migration and invasion and inhibition of proliferation in gastric cancer cells), it is a potential drug target of gastric cancer with extreme caution | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | important roles of the enzyme (PRMT1) in progression of gastric cancer. The enzyme is up-regulated and promotes migration, invasion and proliferation in wide range of cancers. PRMT1 promotes migration and invasion and inhibits proliferation in gastric cancer cells,whereas PRMT1 knockdown reverses the above abilities. PRMT1 reduces the expression of epithelial marker E-cadherin and increases the expression of mesenchymal markers including N-cadherin, Vimentin, snail and beta-catenin in gastric cancer cells. PRMT1 silencing promotes the phosphorylation of LATS1, and then induces YAP phosphorylation, while overexpression of PRMT1 down-regulates the phosphorylation of LATS1 and YAP, indicating that PRMT1 inhibits EMT probably via Hippo signaling | Homo sapiens |
