Sorafenib 31-40 DNA methyltransferase 3 beta Homo sapiens 0-6 31771617-13 2019 Additionally, the DNMT3b silencing reduced the OCT4 expression in sorafenib-resistant Hep3B cells with or without IL-6 treatment. Sorafenib 66-75 DNA methyltransferase 3 beta Homo sapiens 18-24 31771617-14 2019 Notably, targeting DNMT3b with nanaomycin A significantly increased the cell sensitivity to sorafenib, with a synergistic combination index (CI) in sorafenib-resistant Hep3B cells. Sorafenib 92-101 DNA methyltransferase 3 beta Homo sapiens 19-25 31771617-14 2019 Notably, targeting DNMT3b with nanaomycin A significantly increased the cell sensitivity to sorafenib, with a synergistic combination index (CI) in sorafenib-resistant Hep3B cells. Sorafenib 148-157 DNA methyltransferase 3 beta Homo sapiens 19-25 31771617-15 2019 CONCLUSIONS: The DNMT3b plays a critical role in the IL-6-mediated OCT4 expression and the drug sensitivity of sorafenib-resistant HCC. Sorafenib 111-120 DNA methyltransferase 3 beta Homo sapiens 17-23 31771617-17 2019 Findings from this study highlight the significance of IL-6-DNMT3b-mediated OCT4 expressions in future therapeutic target for patients expressing cancer stemness-related properties or sorafenib resistance in HCC.
