Myelodysplasia/myeloid leukemia factor 1-interacting protein (MLF1IP) appears to be an erythroid lineage-specific gene in mice; however, its role in normal erythropoiesis and erythropoietic disorders have not yet been elucidated. Here, we found that MLF1IP is abundantly expressed in human erythroid progenitor cells and that MLF1IP-deficiency reduces cell proliferation resulting from cell cycle arrest. Moreover, MLF1IP expression is exclusively elevated in CFU-E cells from polycythemia vera (PV) patients, and MLF1IP transgenic mice develop a PV-like disorder. Further analyses revealed that the erythroid progenitors and early-stage erythroblasts from these transgenic mice expand by up-regulating cyclin D2 and down-regulating p27 and p21. Thus, our data demonstrate that MLF1IP promotes erythroid proliferation and is involved in the pathogenesis of PV, suggesting that it might be a novel molecular target for erythropoietic disorders.

CENPU, encoding an important factor involved in kinetochore assembly during mitosis, is associated with shorter survival rates in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients. CENPU promotes growth rates and invasive behavior of LUAD cells; however, its mechanism of action in LUAD progression remains to be elucidated. CENPU mRNA and protein expression were elevated in LUAD tumors, and high CENPU gene expression was associated with inferior survival prognosis in LUAD patients.

Objective: The molecular mechanism of secondary resistance in Luminal breast cancer was studied to provide new ideas for the treatment of breast cancer.
Methods: The sensitivity of the downregulation of myeloid leukemia factor 1-interacting proteins (MLF1IP) to Tamoxifen (TAM) was tested by the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8). The apoptosis of MLF1IP-mediated resistance was analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM) with/without TAM.

Introduction: Osteosarcoma is the most common primary tumor of bone, although some molecular markers have been identified, the detailed molecular mechanisms underlying osteosarcoma are currently not fully understood. In the present study, we attempted to identify the potential key genes and pathways in osteosarcoma using bioinformatics analysis.
Methods: GSE14359 was downloaded from the GEO database, and analyzed using Limma package.

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading causes of cancer death among females in worldwide. It is urgent to develop novel biomarkers to improve risk stratification and optimize therapy choice. In our previous study, we firstly found that MLF1IP was upregulated in breast cancer tissue compared with adjacent normal tissue and patients with high MLF1IP expression had significantly lower overall survival.
