Sex-determining Region Y-box transcription factor 13 promotes breast cancer cell proliferation and glycolysis by activating the tripartite motif containing 11-mediated Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is the most frequent cancer among women and the second highest mortality in female across the world. Recent studies have illustrated that sex-determining region Y (SRY)-box protein (SOX) family plays essential roles in regulating various cancers. Nevertheless, the detailed effects of SOX13 on breast cancer are still uncovered. In our present study, SOX13 protein level was measured by using western blot assay in tissues and cells, and the results showed that SOX13 was upregulated in breast cancer tissues and cells compared with normal samples. Moreover, silencing SOX13 inhibited breast cancer cell viability, arrested cell cycle at G1/S phase and suppressed glycolysis, while overexpression of SOX13 reversed these events. Additionally, SOX13 knockdown reduced the level of protei
