1. Mechanisms of translation initiation control via the eIF4E hub are pertinent to deregulated lymphoblastic activity. [review] PMID: 29527921
2. High EIF4F expression is associated with malignant glioma. PMID: 30066885
3. Our study...suggests that methylation of cg11037477 and expression of EIF4E may act as prognostic markers in gastric cancer PMID: 29342273
4. Lack of regulation of the interaction between the eIF4E/eIF4G subunits of the translation initiation factor complex eIF4F is a hallmark of cancer. The inhibitor 4EGI-1 binds to eIF4E, thereby preventing association with eIF4G through an allosteric mechanism. Binding of 4EGI-1 perturbs native correlated motions and increases correlated fluctuations in part of the eIF4G binding site. PMID: 27162083
5. The findings suggest that AEG-1 promotes gastric cancer metastasis through upregulation of eIF4E-mediated MMP-9 and Twist. PMID: 28661037
6. The authors show that the eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF4E, an oncoprotein, drives hyaluronan biosynthesis. eIF4E stimulates production of enzymes that synthesize the building blocks of hyaluronan, UDP-Glucuronic acid and UDP-N-Acetyl-Glucosamine, as well as hyaluronic acid synthase which forms the disaccharide chain. PMID: 29111978
7. The present study indicated that miR-15a downregulation was associated with cell proliferation and invasion by directly targeting eIF4E during RCC progression. PMID: 28849086
8. High expressions of eIF-4E are associated with advanced stage and poor prognosis. PMID: 28242042
9. Our results indicate that AURKA plays an important role in the activation of EIF4E and cap-dependent translation.

10. Treatment with 240 mg/l matrine reduced the protein expression levels of PCNA and eIF4E. Matrine also reduced the migration ability of A549 cells and inhibited their proliferation, which may be associated with the overexpression of p53 and p21, and the reduction of PCNA and eIF4E expression levels. PMID: 28447756

15. We performed bioinformatics analyses of ESTs and the 3'UTRs of the main transcript splice variants of the translational initiation factor eIF4E1 and its family members, eIF4E2 and eIF4E3. We propose to elucidate the minor splice variants of eIF4E2 and eIF4E3 in great detail because they might produce proteins with modified features that fulfill different cellular roles from their major counterparts. PMID: 28942592
16. EIF4E associated signaling pathways are associated with lymphangiogenesis and lymph node metastases of hypopharyngeal cancer. PMID: 29374693
17. The authors show that LARP1 directly binds the cap and adjacent 5'TOP motif of TOP mRNAs, effectively impeding access of eIF4E to the cap and preventing eIF4F assembly. Thus, LARP1 is a specialized TOP mRNA cap-binding protein that controls ribosome biogenesis. PMID: 28379136
18. Mitogen-activated protein kinase interacting protein kinases (Mnks) control translation by phosphorylation of eIF4E, whereas the mTOR kinase phosphorylates/de-activates the eIF4E inhibitor, 4E-BP1, to release translational repression. PMID: 27094611
19. Elevated levels of p-Mnk1, p-eIF4E and p-p70S6K proteins are associated with tumor recurrence and poor prognosis in astrocytomas. Overexpression of p-eIF4E and co-expression of p-Mnk1, p-eIF4E and p-p70S6K proteins could be used as novel independent poor prognostic biomarkers for patients with astrocytomas. PMID: 27900644
20. PRMT1 inhibition prevents gastric cancer progression by downregulating eIF4E and targeting type II PRMT5. PMID: 28987382

24. Study identified and established the presence of an evolutionarily conserved water-bridge structural module which is an integral component of the recognition of the 5' mRNA cap by eIF4E during the process of translation initiation. PMID: 27916520
25. Here, the authors identify the domains responsible for the eIF4E/human rhinovirus 2 2A(pro) interaction using molecular modelling and describe mutations that impair this interaction and delay in vitro cleavage of eIF4G isoforms. PMID: 28843814
26. Results suggest that IGF2BP3 promotes eIF4E-mediated translational activation through the reduction of EIF4E-BP2 via mRNA degradation, leading to enhanced cell proliferation. PMID: 26522719
27. There were significantly higher expressions of p-eIF4E and p-4EBP-1 proteins in the cases with lymph node metastasis than in those without lymph node metastasis. PMID: 28395726

31. The structures of eIF4E-eIF4G complexes reveal an extended interface to regulate translation initiation. PMID: 27773676
32. 4E-BP1 has tumor suppressor activity by inhibiting eIF4E and, thus, blocking mRNA translation and proliferation. This is corroborated by elevated levels of phosphorylated and hence inactive 4E-BP1, which are detected in various cancers PMID: 26829052
33. The studies suggest that MNK-eiF4E axis controls the translation of specific mRNAs in cancer metastasis and neuronal synaptic plasticity by a novel mechanism involving the regulation of the translational repressor, CYFIP1. (Review) PMID: 27527252
34. Alternative eIF4F complexes taking part in protein biosynthesis have been described. (Review) PMID: 27283511

36. Findings suggest that miR-455-3p functions as a tumor suppressor by directly targeting eIF4E in prostate carcinogenesis. PMID: 28350134
37. Data show that targeting translation initiation (TI) factors eIF4E/eIF4GI reduces migration and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), both essential for metastasis, thereby underscoring the potential of TI targeting in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) therapy. PMID: 27501049
