Recombinant Human Neuromedin-U (NMU), partial

1. Results identified NMU as highly expressed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues and cell lines. Furthermore, integrative bioinformatics analyses demonstrate that NMU may confer the alectinib resistance in NSCLC via multiple mechanisms. PMID: 30096454
2. NMU might contribute to progression of NMUR2-positive breast cancer PMID: 28423716
3. The anti-tumorigenic effect of HAND2-AS1 in endometrioid endometrial carcinoma was mediated by down-regulating neuromedin U expression. PMID: 29107108
4. Results indicate a mechanism of action for neuromedin U (NmU) in HER2-overexpressing breast cancer that enhances resistance to HER2-targeted drugs through conferring cancer stem cell (CSC) characteristics and expansion of the CSC phenotype. PMID: 28340506
5. This study shows an association between a NMU haplotype and anthropometric indices, mainly linked to fat mass, which appears to be age- and sex-specific in children. PMID: 28235053
6. Overexpression of Nmu may be involved in the process of regional metastasis of HNSCC, and may serve as a novel and valuable biomarker for predicting regional metastasis in patients with HNSCC. PMID: 27279246
7. polymorphisms in the gene may be useful in identifying women at risk for osteoporosis. PMID: 25871004
8. our results defined NmU as a candidate drug response biomarker for HER2-overexpressing cancers and as a candidate therapeutic target to limit metastatic progression and improve the efficacy of HER-targeted drugs. PMID: 24876102
9. a role for NMU gene through interaction with ADRB2 gene in bone strength regulation PMID: 23936460
10. Inactivation of the von Hippel-Lindau tumour suppressor gene induces Neuromedin U expression in renal cancer cells. PMID: 21791076
11. [review] Taken together with its vascular actions, NMU may be a functional link between energy balance and the cardiovascular system and may provide a future target for therapies directed against the disorders that comprise metabolic syndrome. PMID: 19519756
12. These results suggest that NMU plays a role in feeding behavior and catabolic functions via corticotropin-releasing hormone. PMID: 14623274
13. NmU expression is related to Myb and that the NmU/NMU1R axis constitutes a previously unknown growth-promoting autocrine loop in myeloid leukemia cells PMID: 15187020
14. irreversible binding of NmU to its receptors PMID: 15331768
15. Overexpression of neuromedin U is associated with bladder tumor formation, lung metastasis and cancer cachexia PMID: 16878152
16. Amino acid variants in NMU associate with overweight and obesity, suggesting that NMU is involved in energy regulation in humans. PMID: 16984985
17. NMU & its cancer-specific receptors, as well as its target genes, are frequently overexpressed in clinical samples of lung cancer and in cell lines, and that those gene products play indispensable roles in the growth and progression of lung cancer cells. PMID: 17018595
18. NmU may be involved in the HGF-c-Met paracrine loop regulating cell migration, invasiveness and dissemination of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. PMID: 19118941
