malfunction | inhibition of enzyme Gnt-V increases the radiosensitivity of cancer cells. Increased enzyme activity leads to the radiosensitivity and migration of small cell lung cancer cells by inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Overexpression of Gnt-V leads to a further increase in the relative viable cell number and survival fraction with a decrease in apoptosis rate and Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, when the cells are treated with irradiation. Downregulation of Gnt-V increased E-cadherin but suppressed ZEB2, vimentin and N-cadherin expression, while upregulation of enzyme levels leads to the downregulation of E-cadherin and upregulation of ZEB2, vimentin and N-cadherin at both the protein and mRNA levels | Homo sapiens |
additional information | beta1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (GnT-V) is encoded by ets-1, a transcriptional factor which also regulates several enzymes associated with cell invasion and metastasis | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | expression of enzyme Gnt-V correlates with the N stage in patients with small cell lung cancer. Increased enzyme activity leads to the radiosensitivity and migration of small cell lung cancer cells by inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Gnt-V regulates the expression of epithelial and mesenchymal markers in SCLC cells | Homo sapiens |
